According to Jim

Jim (Jim Belushi) and Cheryl (Courtney Thorne-Smith) have three kids in Chicago. Her brother Andy (Larry Joe Campbell) is his best friend. Her sister Dana (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) often makes fun of her brother-in-law.

It's easy to dismiss this long running family sitcom. All the stars are aligned for people to take easy pot shots.

1.Jim Belushi is NOT his brother.

2.Yet another fat boorish husband with a hot wife.

3.All the jokes have been done before.

4.No edgy stuff. Just so middle America.

But does that truly justify all the hate? The humor is cute enough. Larry Joe Campbell has some hilarious moments. All in all, I think it's has enough comedy to sit thru. Why not? Especially if you're sitting with your family and have little kids. Trust me, you don't want to sit thru something edgy with your little kids.

I was a late bloomer to this show. After having knee surgery I was able to watch all the episodes. I laughed and laughed. Andy and Jim are hilarious together. If you need to laugh out loud, this is the show to watch. Just enjoy it.

I am revisiting old tv series on imdb, and am shocked to see that this good "old" gem has only 6.4 at the time of writing his review :(

What is wrong with you people? I had expected at least a 7+ rating on this one.

What I really like about it is the loveable characters, both the leads are just so good at giving and taking off each others energy - what great chemistry!

I really like how upbeat and fun this show is compared to, say, 2 and a half men, where everyone is just so mean, and ttat also to one another. I really like how the characters on this show mostly mean well instead, and usually have the best of intentions.

The lead couple is just so cute and adorable, and even some of the less looking friends of theirs are as well. Really a heartwarming show, that manages to make me laugh.

If you haven't seen it, give it a go :)!

This series is not a masterpiece of comedy sitcoms, but it i up in the higher levels of the genre. Belushi plays Belushi and therefore he does it perfectly and the other actors are good as well. The comedy is layered in the relation and interacting of the family members with Jim, a sometimes lazy but still caring father, who wants to be left alone but cannot help to care, even for his brother-in-law, who gets on his nerves so often. It's a classic sitcom with not much moving forward or connecting the eoisodes, but it works week to week. It's good to watch, it's light and it has humour in the small moments of life. Nice.

Okay I'll admit it, the first time I saw the commercial for this show I didn't think it looked all that great, but I decided I'd watch it anyway, and I'm glad I did. Courtney Thorne- Smith plays Jim's wife, shes kinda annoying but she also makes the show really worth watching. Larry Joe Campbell who plays Andy is absolutely hilarious and him and Jim make a great comdedic team. This is the only tv show that I have actually fell off the couch laughing to. I give this show 11 out of 10 stars. This show is staying put and not goin anywhere!!!
