Malibu Country

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.

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!

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!

I had not heard of this show before, but found it after I finished another show (Trophy Wife) and the show started playing automatically. I thought it was a current show and didn't know until after I finished the season that it ended in 2013. It's very funny and comforting, maybe because I'm southern living in the mid-west and I do love Reba and Lily Tomlin. It had me constantly laughing, it's charming and a little naughty (Lily Tomlin is to thank for that, lol). I'm pretty upset it was canceled after one season. This was a heck of a lot better than most tv series. I think it would've even been better in season 2, as a lot of shows find their groove in the 2nd season (Community, Parks & Rec and so many others). I hope Reba comes up with something else and I'd love for Kelly Clarkson to guest star now & then. They make a great team and I know Kelly has her talk show, which I love.
