Malibu Country

Boy the review from "davidleequinn1950" seems a little angry and homophobic. Perhaps David believes that Reba and Narvel are anti-gay (which they are not)or that Reba and her husband are "over the cliff Christian conservatives" (they are not and never have been.) Republican yes, nut-jobs no. Perhaps David should hope for "The Toby Keith show" or "The Ted Nugent Hour" and let his little girl watch that instead. Now that's off my chest so here is my actual review. The show is rocky, there have been some really funny lines but a lot falls flat. Reba is of course fantastic and Lilly Tomlin is great as her no nonsense mother. The kids are great as well. The Sara Rue character is a stereotype and annoying. The Jai Rodriguez character is also a stereotype and needs work. The jokes need work, some go well a lot goes bad, perhaps a change in writing staff could help with that.The concept of the show is good, Nashville family moves to Malibu and culture shock hi-jinx ensue. The ratings for the show have been strong, I think with some fine tuning "Malibu County" can be just as successful as "Reba" was (and still is on CMT). I give it a six because for the most part I think the premise is solid but as with every new show it has to find its balance. Good going Reba keep it up, we love you!

I know that this show doesn't get much love here on IMDB. And I probably wouldn't have started watching it had I read the reviews before watching it. But one day this shows just randomly popped up on TV right in front of my eyes and I did like it. Only then I checked the rating. And I even held back starting watching it properly but I'm glad I got into it. Maybe it's because music is such a big part of the series that I like it so much. I even found out that Dave Stuart is one of the creators of the show. I never heard of Reba before but that doesn't make me like the show any less. My one criticism would go towards character depth, as I find some very one dimensional, but I understand that that goes with the format of the show. Overall I find the show very enjoyable. It's a shame it didn't last longer. If I happen to find another show which involves either Reba or Dave Stuart, I'll surely check it out.

Same worn out story lines and overacting. Lilly Tomlin is awesome of course but otherwise, just go watch old Reba reruns. There's even a Barbra Jean character. The kids are u likable and the whole storyline is just idiotic.

First of all, I have to say it is the only show on currently with realistic shots of Malibu. So far I recognize every location. I love, respect and appreciate that realism. Second, Reba is wonderful, warm and fun to watch as usual. Having Lily Tomlin on the show is magical! I cannot wait until they find their real groove and let the humor flow as I know they will. It is a little canned right now. It will loosen up as they get used to each other. I'd say whatever the real relationship between Lily and Reba is, be it friendly, antagonistic or both, they can play on that and the talent these ladies have will show up on the screen. Also, I am going to say that having grown up 90 miles from Reba at the same time and having known her as a child, I know what courage it takes to have the open mind that she is exhibiting on this show and I think that is a path toward acceptance and love and I respect that too. Go girl! This show is a winner!

Was canceled way too soon. Was funny and a great sitcom!
