Back in the Game

The pilot is strong, the writing, direction, execution are all excellent. My favorite comedy to debut this fall season and surprised it is not getting more attention. I stumbled on it and glad I did! Love that it's a family show but even has a little bit of edgy humor. Really great fun characters and dialogue.

the IMDb says I need more words to review it, but I really don't. I laughed out loud at the pilot. I never laugh out loud at television except for Parks and Recreation.

Hope this starts to get a good audience and grow.

Very well done.

I am really surprised the overall ratings for this is so low so far. I think this is the best new show out so far.

I'd call it a modern day Bad News Bears. The writing is really good. Many good laughs each episode and it also has a deep story line that will need to come together by the end of the season. Maggie Lawson is plays the perfect down on her luck, tom-boy mom who really takes loves her son and wants what's best for him. James Cane is the perfect fit for the grumpy Granddad/Dad/ex Baseball player who teaches the kids how to become better player/kids in unorthodox ways. He also is really good at showing a caring side, without showing it.

If your tired of the same old sitcom with little depth, then this is the show for you. Give it a shot and I think you will find you like it.

I hope it sticks around. It's a really good show.

It's good they hired some people to write favorable reviews of this new show, because that's the only way they're going to get them. I tuned in because I'm a fan of Maggie Lawson, and it seemed like she was doing her best, but the writing is atrocious, the characters are shallow, and even James Caan can't give this program any gravity. In the episode where Maggie's character wants a night out, the actors kept trying to make something happen, but the situations fell flat (when they weren't over-the-top). The so-called clever dialog of the young Little League team isn't the least bit clever (the Bad News Bear they are not), and overall there is a stiffness to the show that offsets its few good moments. This one will not be filling up my DVR.

Not exactly a very engrossing story that sucks you in, but its gradual and normal. I'm a fan of Maggie Lawson from psych, so its good to see her. the cast does justice to the characters and i like seeing characters that aren't stereotypical.

It'll be good to see where the story goes and if more characters show up. the humor is dry and sarcastic, a little mature but refreshing none the same.

Most other shows i follow fall under a very common background. The sports angle is nice. From what i have seen so far, i can see a nice plot developing. This show is not about the suspense and i like that compared to other new shows that have just started.

I will watch this entire season before judging if i'll stick to it, but i expect it to keep me interested.

I don't have children so I love it....It's borderline offensive but the thing is this...its not a kids show or is it :-) I am laughing so loud that my girlfriend things I am having a psychotic break...characters are very funny, acting is OK, story line is improving every week and The Cannon is just hilarious and makes Peter from Family guy look like a choir boy!

Its not the greatest show ever but I don't think it wants to be. Its 20 minutes long and I laugh 10 times on average....what more can you want, therefore I am giving the show an 8 out of 10 and this has nothing to do with the looks of the lead female character.....:-)!
