Major Dad

"Major Dad" takes a humorous look on the challenges facing typical military families, in this case the family of a US Marine Major. The characters are credible, the acting is above average for these kinds of TV-series, and most importantly, it`s funny. Despite the fact that the series is a comedy, it also shows the difficulties and sacrifices necessary to combine family life and faithful dedication to the military way of life. The series is very pro military(which is good), and is hereby recommended.

Unlike most Sitcoms which usually feature a dumpy idiotic husband and occasionally a wife who was just about as dumb, this show featured 2 intelligent human beings from different sides learning to love each other and get along, while being funny and entertaining. The humor didn't rely on stupid jokes or over the top antics but on real world family dynamics.

Always a fun show to watch. Still available on HULU!

The first three seasons are definitely the watch worth. The Costa Negra story-line in the first season is on the same level as the last episode of Blackadder Goes Forth. If you don't get the reference, watch both series. It becomes quite clear early in Season 4 that they started running out of ideas. Most American series run into this at the same time, with many overstaying their welcome for several seasons too long.

This show, in my opinion, is a pure CBS hit! Despite the fact that I've never seen every episode, I still enjoyed it. There are many episodes that I enjoyed. One of them was where the girls (Chelsea Hertford, Nicole Dubuc, Marisa Ryan) perform "Side By Side" in some competition. If you want to know why, you'll have to have seen it for yourself. I will say that I did laugh at the last lines of that episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, even though it can be seen on USA now, I strongly recommend you catch it just in case it goes off the air for good.
