The Bill Engvall Show

Very average family friendly show. Nothing crazy just family stuff and background laughter. Very few extras and locations make it stale pretty fast. First season was whatever, first half of second season was definitely the peak of the show and by the end of third season you'll be pretty tired of it just like the actors. The idea of Bill being a family therapist was never really explored and completely abandoned after fist season. I'd say it's worth watching for JLaw fans.

This show is repulsive. The "jokes" are delivered badly and they're not funny at all...not even a little bit catchy. The acting is absolutely terrible, not the least bit convincing. And what's up with Bill Engvall stopping the show you're watching for a good thirty seconds so he can try and promote this lame so-called comedy, sitcom...whatever?!. Talk about bad advertising-that has to be the worst! You don't want to irritate your viewers even before they see your show! Whoever thought up that idea must really be a moron.

And also, this show makes me regret ever having grown up in the south because the people on this show (mostly Bill) bring out the worst in southern people. Women must stay home and tend to the man when he gets off work, and God forbid let a black man walk in the house.

If you're looking for a good and funny family show (rare these days), this is it. From what I've seen so far there is very little in common with the sluts and idiots you will find on Friends and Sex and the City and multiple other sit-coms.

They even say Grace at the table over Chinese take-out.

Solid parental characters, a stronger than usual man-role for the father, a mother character who keeps him in check, normal kids, good values, and very entertaining from what I've seen so far. Definitely not prudish, a good mildly biting comedy.

I would compare this to "Still Standing" but perhaps even better as the Peason parents are less dysfunctional than the Millers.

Let's face it. Bill and the other guys from the Blue Collar gang aren't the most profane comics out there, but that's basically the

genius of their entire humor.

Bill can be dead hilarious without going over the top and having to be off-color too many times.

Anyway, it's just another family drama that's pretty well written and is guaranteed to get a couple of laughs out of you. None of the actors seem out of place here and it's good to see that other comedians Tim Meadows and Nancy Travis are still in the business.

Overall, it's a pretty good sitcom to watch along w/ re-runs of "Everyone Loves Raymond," "Friends" and "Frasier."

So I also hope that this gets renewed for a second season & if it doesn't then that's TBS/TNT cable company's loss because this is hilarious.

Our family REALLY enjoyed this show! It's so hard to find something we can all watch together as a family but this show was GREAT!!!! It's too bad they don't have more shows like it on TV. It was funny and the humor was clean - we didn't have to worry about the teenagers or the younger kids watching. We're all sorry to see that it was canceled. I hope to see more of Bill Engvall, Nancy Travis and the rest of the cast in the very near future. (I don't really have anything else to say but it won't let me send my review until I have a minimum of ten lines so now I'm just trying to write things to fill the space. Sorry - I didn't realize I would have to write so much!)
