Your Family or Mine

This show has so many comedic situational possibilities but instead the writers can't get their minds off sex - honestly these great actors really need to demand a better caliber of writing. I get wanting to push the envelope but honestly after 5 jokes about sex you realize that its no different than 2 1/2 men, 2 broke girls, HIMYM except they go further and say blow job instead of insinuating it.

What was great about shows like Frasier, Everybody Loves Raymond, King of Queens, Friends, Sienfeld was the innuendo - if they actually said masturbation instead of master of my domain do your really think it would have been funny? I am a huge fan of Reno 911 and when I got the 1st season as a gift I was hoping the bleeping would remain in place, which it did, because that is what made it funny - FYI I swear like a trucker.

This show is just awful.

It is amazing that anything this dreadfully bad would ever be made into a series, even on TNT. It features some of the worst writing in the History of American television.

There is not one even remotely new idea. The jokes, the characters, even the plots, have been seen so many times, in so many different series. The entire series has a "been there seen it all before" tone to it.

Veteran Actors like Richard Dryfuss shoot embarrassed looks into the camera. TNT could air a better program by recycling "Different Strokes" reruns.

Pass on this stinkeroo - you will be glad you did.

You gotta love TV in the '10s. Say 'blow job' a lot, throw in some 'shittys,' and you are pushing that envelope! Pathetic. I hate to sound like some geezer yelling at kids, but come on. I'm not offended by the language itself, but how it seems intended to stand in for actual, you know, writing.

Family situations can always be mined for decent comedy, even after all this time. And the cast is pretty good. But really ... it seems the producers and writers just don't have the chops, maybe because they're all 25-35 years old and have seen too much garbage, and mistaken it for quality.

The show has some funny lines. I just want to say that the use of the G** Damn bothers me and I can't believe they allow this. If it must be used can I suggest saying "golly dammit" instead. It is my opinion that GOD does not have a last name and I am sure some would agree with me. I was shocked that they could get away with this. I know the writers want it to be more realistic but seriously writers be more creative then this. The cast has some really stand up actors and I'm sure this could be a really great show if the plot lines were better and everyday issues were discussed. We don't need any more sexually explicit shows as our kids learn enough in schools and from others, yes I know that's why we have a rating system.

The acting is unconvincing, and the subject matter forcibly emphasizes the topic of sex, to the point where it defeats the purpose); while these factors are common in some contemporary sitcoms, this show takes them to an extreme. Also, the writing lacks creativity - the word "shitty" was used to describe a kid's drawing on the show, the dialogue and script was far too canned and contrived, the plot was predictable and simultaneously felt very unnatural (even for a sitcom), and it was flat-out boring, as the plot pandered about a singular menial premise. Judging by the trailers advertising this show leading up to its premiere, I didn't have such high hopes for this show, but I decided to give it a chance anyway - I came away very disappointed.

I watch sitcoms on a regular basis, and as far as this show goes, it falls decisively flat on its face. It's bad enough that the writing and acting are both terrible, but the plot and premise are also pointless - I will be very surprised if the show is renewed for a second season.
