Children Ruin Everything

EDIT 02/02/22: Ok this show is growing on me fast. It's actually hilarious and although the characters are "over-performing", it works. The episodes are real-world parenting issues told in the most entertaining way. All cast (including the newest ones) are all excellent, and Letterkenny's Lisa Codrington as Marla is funny af. Meaghan Rath and Aaron Abrams are perfectly cast and their chemistry works like a charm. The little brats are still cute as ever. I'm upping my score to a 8/10. Can't wait to see what the writers come up with next.

Original review: If you're considering having kids, this show might change your mind. So far so good for the pilot. All the funny stuff shown in the TV trailers was pretty much in this episode, and was still funny. The cast and performances were spot on, and the little brats were, well, brats. For now it's a 7/10 because I've seen everything in the trailers and knew what I'd get, so let's see what the next episodes give us.

I think the lack of a laugh track has thrown off some folks who've given this a low rating. It's funny and slightly over the top 🤣 The actors have great chemistry both romantic and comedic.

Love the it's actually set in Toronto with nods to things in the area. Looking forward to seeing where this story goes from here.

I started with, I realize now, a certain bias. Meaghan Rath was in my opinion too pretty for this show. But oh my god was I wrong! Her comedic timing is SO good she often has me guffawing.

My daughter keeps telling me "they weren't like that" but all you parents out there know better.

I absolutely like the "wrong" humour the parents have, saying unforgiveable stuff about their kids. Been there, done that.

The couple is very believable and they really seem to have been together for years, they do it right.

When it comes down to it, it is always you 2 against the world (or so it feels). Best comedy since Married with Children.

Such a refreshing little comedy with excellent actors. I am not a fan of comedy shows in this day & age however; I read the the cast & had to check it out. I'm so happy I did! My new favorite comedy series. Great job all around & except for the camera work. That's why I only gave it a 9. I look forward to the next episode.

This show is great for the whole family and shows what children can really be like unlike tv shows where the family is perfect. I do feel sorry for the people who rated it only 1 star as something is really missing from their lives as they don't seem to find joy in anything.
