Better with You

Kurt Fuller and Debra Jo Rupp played middle aged parents to Mia and Maddie in New York City. First, I would have changed the location somewhere else. New York City has been done to death. Anyway, the sitcom focuses on the elder couple and their two daughters. Maddie is a lawyer who lives with her male partner in a fabulous apartment in the city. Mia is her younger sister who finds love, happiness, and baby on the way with her boyfriend fiancé of seven weeks. Of course, there are moments where they show the differences between a new couple, the long-term couple, and the veteran couple whether in the taxi or in bed or on the couch. I love Debra Jo Rupp who can prove that she's just as good if not better than her previous sitcom fame as the loving seventies mom.

I gave this a 9 out of 10, which is really good considering Modern Family cant reach this rating. But the reason this is such an awesome show, is because every time I watch it, the actors can make me laugh out loud, no joke.

It has Excellent Writing, Excellent Acting, and damn good directing. I have absolutely no complains. The structure of the episodes are really good, they always start and finish with a smooth ice breaking joke that makes me laugh.

Excellent, it deserves more than 6,5.

Also, I have to give a shout to Jake Lacy, you're so convincing. Casey never stops amazing me with his both randomness and sometimes stupidity.

9/10.

I first watched this because I was channel surfing and didn't recognize the name. Now I make time to watch this great show. It reminds me of 'the old sitcoms' that made me laugh so much. I don't need an intricate plot or running back story to be entertained by a sitcom, I just want the actors to be good and to have some great dialogue. Better with You delivers on these. The premise of viewing relationships from 3 different points of view is fantastically funny, particularly when you're watching the show with your partner and trying to decide which couple you are most like. The ladies definitely drive the comedy of the show, with the men being the foils. Josh Cooke is hilarious as the 'OMG she's dating a musician' boyfriend, and, of course, Debra Jo Rupp is brilliant as the Mom who always has the perfect one liner. I would definitely recommend this show.

Wow! What a fun show. I've been a fan of Jennifer Finnigan from her outstandingly entertaining work in a guest-starring role on Crossing Jordan and through her first sitcom. I'm pleasantly surprised to find that the entire cast is equally sharp in this new offering! About the rarest thing to find in a new sitcom is a freshness of approach and "Better With You" definitely has it. Oh, the scripts are not revolutionary -- after all, it is a sitcom about modern couples living in the city. But they are fresh, unpredictable, and absorbing. There is a sure hand on this very polished comedic work and it's great to see top-notch actors wring laugh after laugh out of truly engaging material. In all the best sitcoms, the comedy springs from character -- clearly everyone on either side of the camera knows this and knows how to deliver it.

This is a GREAT show!! It's silly, and funny, and heart-warming too. I love the chemistry of all the characters together, and in each couples-set. Great jokes, stories and chemistry! Keep this show going-- it makes for a Wednesday that I look forward too!!! I wasn't sure about this show when it first started, but it seemed to get better and better each week. I really do look forward to it coming on, on Wednesdays- it's become a part of my line-up!!! I hope this show continues, and is given every opportunity to be successful, it is a great show! :) This show is surprising, and different. I love how the show starts and ends with each couples versions of an incident or conversation. It's so funny to see how each set handles something. Everyone is very well cast and does a fantastic job. This show is awesome, I just don't know what else I could say-- but, WATCH IT! :)
