I'm Sorry.

Binged this show in 2 nights with my wife, and we laughed the whole time!

Andrea (played by Andrea Savage) is a hilariously crass, honest, well intentioned, fast-talking mom who constantly says what she's thinking (like Jane Lynch or Vince Vaughn). Sometimes it works out well for her, and other times it just makes things worse-which only intensifies as she tries to dig herself out of awkward situations that she creates for herself because she keeps talking. Her husband, Mike (Tom Everett Scott), is brilliant with his side glances and witty remarks as they banter back and forth. Their chemistry is on point. In fact, the whole cast fits rather seemlessly into the constant ribbing and shenanigans, especially her best friend and co-writer, Kyle (Jason Mantzoukas).

The only reason this is a 9 is because some of their 5 year old daughter's lines feel forced. But, she always sets Andrea down a path of raw, honest parenting that's sometimes hard to watch in a hilarious way!

Like most reviews mention, Andrea is the star of every scene in every episode, with 80% or more of the talking done exclusively by her. Some of the scenarios and dialogue ends up being funny or cute, while a similar portion of them feel forced or only possible by the support/encouragement of her friends. I enjoyed the light-hearted nature of the show that served as a reminder not to take life too seriously, which lifted my spirits when I watched. Gary Anthony Williams (Brian) really added a fun vibe and I loved the scenes with him in it. Her daughter was probably one of the worst parts of the show, with cringe-worthy unnatural questions, or the parents talking about inappropriate topics around her as if she wasn't there.

I'm giving the show a solid 7, as it kept me entertained, put me in a better mood after watching, and had some funny moments plus a good cast.

This show is GREAT! Andrea is hilarious. She says stuff no one else would say and in a matter-of-fact way. The entire cast works very well with each other. This show is perfect for TruTV. It's 50 times better than the reality crap with is all over TV these days. Hope its on for years and years to come!

I usually don't like comedies with awkward situations and misunderstandings (basically I cannot identify with such comedic characters) but this new comedy with stand-up comedian Andrea Savage is rather entertaining.

The setup is far from original, the suburban wife and mom, with the understanding, supporting husband and the curious kid, but the "feel" is different from other comedies, let's say "American Housewife" (which is also a good comedy for its own sake).

The script is well written for its genre, although the "do or say something awkward in front of other people who then staring at you with contempt and disapproval" pattern might get old really soon.

Overall: Check it out if you like jokes derived from uncomfortable situations.

This comedy show in intended for adult audiences. It features Andrea Savage and Tom Everett Scott as parents of a young daughter, played by newcomer Olive Petrucci.

Olive is adorable and Tom ("La La Land") is a great foil for Andrea's stand-up style of humor. She doesn't tiptoe through the minefield of motherhood, she bulldozes. She targets new trends with a non-PC outspokenness that is refreshing. In one episode she lampoons "goddess parties".

The show features a great supporting cast, like Kathy Baker ("Boston Public"; "Boston Legal"; and other non--Boston shows), and some guest stars who are fun to see (like Judith Light and Martin Mull). I hope some of them (like Morgan Walsh and Gary Anthony Williams) will return.

If you like sharp-edged humor and don't mind some profanity, this is a good show to watch. The style of humor reminds me of "Nobodies" and "Teachers".
