Elizabeth Perkins, Brad Garrett, and Sarah Chalke in How to Live with Your Parents (For the Rest of Your Life) (2013)
Polly (Sarah Chalke) is a single mom who's been divorced for almost a year. The transition wasn't easy for her, especially in this economy. So, like a lot of young people living in this new reality, she turned to her parents for a little help. Polly and her daughter Natalie have moved back home with her eccentric parents, Elaine (Elizabeth Perkins) and Max (Brad Garrett), a couple who are full of life, which seems to always collide with hers. And after a year, it kind of feels like a life sentence.

    Not as bad as I thought it would be.

    I watched this show judging from the review here on IMDb and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. IMHO it's quite funny, I think it just needs a chance. It needs some fans to get behind it and room to grow.

    I gave it an 8/10 from the first episode but i can see it changing in the future. I hope they can get some good ideas in for episodes in the future. It'd be a shame to see another decent show go down the drain.

    I think the characters are pretty strong too, apart from the ex who I don't think should really have as big a part as it feels like he's going too. It needs to feel more like she's moved away from him and is fully moving on.

    P.S. It's awesome to see something new from Sarah Chalke! I can't help but wonder if this character is going to be a lot like Elliot. She seems the type.

    Shorten the Title!

    The cast is first rate with Emmy winner Brad Garrett and Elizabeth Perkins playing unusual grandparents and parents. They're more hippies. The step-dad is an actor and Perkins played a boundary less grandmother who puts her foot in her mouth at times. The sitcom is shot without an audience so no laugh track. Sarah Chalke plays their newly separated daughter who returns home to live with her parents and adjust to single life. She has a soon to be ex husband, Julian, who manages to be a big part of her life. This comedy has vets like Chalke, Perkins, and Garrett which makes the show go smoothly. Their Oscar party episode was one of the best so far with it's quirkiness. The grandparents are worth watching. Can't wait to see who is casted as the girls' biological father!

    Too Old, too Young.

    I loved Sarah Chalke in Scrubs... she was the right age. Then I see her as Stella on "How I met your Mother" and thought she was too old for Ted's early 30's character. She too was in her early 30's but something about her comes off older, she comes across as more mature. Now with this show, she plays the daughter to Brad and Elizabeth (both 53yrs old), who would have to have been 16yrs old when they had Sarah who is 37. I don't buy it? I watched the first episode and thought she was the younger sister, not the daughter. I just couldn't watch anymore. Sarah is a pretty lady but she keeps getting cast as too old or too young and am I the only one who sees it?

    Not So Bad While Waiting for My Other Shows on Hulu

    Honestly, I'm not sure why everyone is downing the show! It's not Masterpiece Theatre, but it has it's moments. I think Sarah Chalke is charming, and her parents are amusing. Brad Garrett is a good comedian, and has just been dealt some not so popular shows. Her mom's Drug and alcohol usage makes her relatable, even though I know many folks out there wont admit that. I think there are too many reality shows out there, and this is far better, if not just a lesser evil. Many of my favorite shows are getting canceled, and I'm really picky when it comes to having television I actually follow. The acting isn't bad, the plots are interesting and believable. Give it a chance!

    Edit
    • Goofs
      Because a main cast member left early in production, many scenes had to be re-shot. This resulted in the episodes being shown out of order, which caused many continuity errors. For example: Julian moved into a playhouse before he built it in a later episode.
