The Kids Are Alright

One critic suggested this was part Brady Bunch, part That 70's Show, and I agree. Michael Cuditz and Mary McCormack head a delightful cast. They create comic fervor with snippets of pathos into a charming romp about a large, Catholic working class family in Hollywood in the Early 70's.

Yes, this is close to the 80's The Goldbergs but it has its own niche. I know of families back in the 70's with 8 or more kids and you knew they were Catholic. The parents are great in this show, and the actors playing the kids do a great job ! Let's keep this show on!!

I absolutely love this show! Growing up not only in a (quarter-Irish) Catholic family, but as a teen in the early 70's, this show is spot-on. The cultural and religious references resonate and the decor and clothes take me back. And it is so funny!! The cast is fabulous, Mary McCormack is fantastic as the no-nonsense mom. The intro of no seat belts, bike helmets, etc. is a hoot and exactly what others in my age group talk about - we we're not raised as hothouse flowers and yet we survived growing up and went on to thrive. Judging by the majority of the other reviews, this is a well-loved show. ABC...are you reading this? Please don't cancel this gem of a show!!

The show is not a rehash of the Goldbergs. If anything closer to the Wonder Years.

I found it unique and a good mix of characters to learn more about during this turbulent time.

I was born in 1962 and raised in the 70's. Wow!! My mom didn't wear the dresses but the hairstyle and chaos in the house is spot on! We had SO much more freedom and our parents never worried about where we were! And... we beat the crap out of each other... all the time! They just told us not to kill each other 😂😂 I hope this show is renewed for another season! My generation needs at show that fits us!
