Unmatched cast, including the kids. Martin Freeman is brilliant and shows so much acting range. I wonder how much if any of the writing he contributed, how much based on his life. Has hilarious moments--the British humor (humour), it's just different from American humor -- but the family dynamics I am sure almost universal. I read a different actor was originally cast as Jim, Martin Freeman's father, but I've seen Alun Armstrong, the actor who replaced him, in several series and I think he's superb--there's lightness and seriousness in each episode. Highly recommend especially if you enjoy Freeman.

I laughed my ass off constantly at this show, I have a 9 year old and my god has she tested my patience, I totally relate to their behaviour and I found it painfully funny. All the bad reviews literally state the overuse of bad language, but this is the way people talk these days. Highly recommended.

For the love of god! Finally a realistic depiction of life with kids! I'm so sick of the shows about families and the parents always seem to have quiet uninterrupted time to talk, time to do grown-up things, time to themselves, what an absolute joke that is! There is no such thing when you have kids! Its an absolute s**t show all the time!! This is true reality tv! Thank you! It's about time! I haven't laughed this hard ever! Just thank you!!!! Masterpiece! MORE PLEASE!! MANY MANY MANY MORE!

Very funny from the off and doesn't let up, the episode about death was pant wettingly hilarious. The idiots giving it low scores due to swearing or suggesting it is unrealistic and just bad parenting need to a) stop being snowflake prudes and b) realise it's a comedy not a documentary. You'll be telling me next that Monty Python and the Holy Grail isn't a true reflection of Arthurian Britain or that Arthur didn't actually exist.

The writers have outdone themselves. I watched an episode by accident and now I wouldn't miss one for the world. The family is so darn normal, warts and all, that's what makes this show so outstanding. They cuss, the kids lie to their parents, but in the end they are a very strong loving unit. That's what makes the show.
