The Goode Family

Never has the show been more relatable than 2024 when all our groceries are overpriced, paper straws are the norm and vegan burgers are in every food chain. Especially love the returning joke of reusable bags. The mom is a classic Vegan Karen mom we all know in 2024 .

Mike as usual presents a male husband protagonist that is funny and grows on you. I like Gerald he seems like a very loving husband who rides a bike we all know one.

Mike did a great job it's a shame the show appeared on tv before it's time; no one saw the true relationship the public could of had with the show. Maybe in the reboot of King of the Hill we will see the Goode Family again... I hope.

I only became aware of this show after being told about Tubi TV app by my Lyft driver. I started watching and I was immediately hooked. Why did this only last 1 season? Maybe because no one knew about it. Either way, this show is pretty GOODE for watching at work or just passing the time. I heard Bliss' voice instantly knew it was my girl Linda C from Freaks and Geeks! Anywho, this show is pretty decent. It's no Beavis and Butthead or King of the Hill but it did the trick.

This show did not get enough time on the air to catch everyones attention. One season does not give this show justice. I felt I was just getting to know all of the characters and now I can only imagine who they would have become. It was a unique show working with ideas I haven't seen in any animated show before. Mike Judge is always doing good work and I hope this show can get picked up on another station someday. But for now we can all catch the reruns on Comedy Central! I mean doesn't everyone remember when Family Guy was cancelled and how big of a following it received while it was off the air? It was too bad that King of the Hill ended in 2009, but then this show comes on and I felt a little better because it was still the same animation and some of the same humor.

To start off, this show is no King of the Hill. After watching the first four episodes consecutively, I am left with sadness and a feeling that the legacy and comedy of King of the Hill will not be coming back into this show. It is true that all good things must come to an end at some point, but that is not to say that The Goode Family isn't a good thing. It does have it's high points, such as poking fun at what is now considered to be the good American mentality, has characters that resemble King of the Hill characters (i.e. their neighbor who resembles Hank Hill in almost all ways except he's black), realistic animation such as that in King, as well as some plain old funny moments. But it's not laugh out loud funny. There's no crazy moments or situations that drive the episodes, and the characters are hard to get into.

I know I've compared this show to King of the Hill a lot, but quite frankly it's all I can think of. Even if I had never seen King I'd still probably say the same stuff as mentioned above. The show isn't genius. It had a wonderful idea and when I heard about the characters' personalities I thought that the show had a great chance. But it's just not that good. But at this point in the game it's a little to early to tell,

Shame on FOX for getting rid of one of the, if not the greatest animated comedy of all time.

Satirically making fun of the far left. Not in anyway that's too tasteless. I'd say the characters are a bit over the top, it needed more time to lush itself out. The comedy is just far too obvious at times. Unlike King of the Hill the characters are sort of two dimensional. When you lean this far into the satirical side it just feels like a takedown. The characters just aren't very likable as a whole. The main characters feel more like they should be over the top side characters. It's almost the opposite of King of the Hill, but if King of the Hill was only Dale. I wouldn't recommend it, but if you feel like throwing some background thing on go for it.
