Splitting Up Together

I really enjoyed the pilot. I am a family law attorney and deal with families in this situation all the time. It was appropriately comedic and also hit the real issues when people go through this process. Great chemistry between the main characters. Great supporting characters. I hope this show makes it!

To those giving it a 1/10, seriously? This show is not offensive and if you can't get the humor, you are probably under the age of 40.

This is a lighthearted show that dances with the delicate subject of a failed marriage and how to maintain the balance of a family unit. Unlike several shows out there, the kids are not foul mouthed self absorbed "tweens" that a real parent would want to knock upside their head. The adults feel the guilt of their failed relationship and not only try to move forward with their lives (will they get back together or not), but they continue sacrificing for the sake of their offspring.

This series pushes the boundaries but doesn't flagrantly break them. I for one will keep watching to see where it goes.

Although I'm not a huge fan of half hour sit coms I am liking Jenna Fisher much better. The premise has potential and the writing is decent. A little less of the progeny and a little more Dianne Farr would be great.

A new favorite! Absolutely love this new comedy, it is finally something fresh on the scene. From newly divorced trying to get back out there, to realizing what you had now that it's gone. Demonstrates what a healthy divorce with children should look like, without instilling false hope in young viewers. Considering some of the scenes in this show i certainly hope there is not a very large young viewing audience. It's a great show!

Having tried this actual arrangement in my own divorce I'm amazed how relatable, poignant, and touching the whole series has been.
