I think it suck a fun show and deserved a 3rd season why cancelled it fox it better than great north which sucks.

Thought it was pretty funny. Something about it reminded me of Mike Judge writing. Then read it was confirmed to be loosely set in the KOTH universe. I hope it makes it just to see the mom and daughter run into Peggy one day. On its own though, it's funny enough to check out the next 3 episodes.

Unlike most of the reviewers, I really liked this show. Its too bad it didn't catch on with more people. I looked forward to Sunday nights to catch the exploits of the Harts, I'll miss it when its over.

I am only reviewing this show to provide additional perspectives because most of the reviews here rated this show pretty harshly.

This show is probably a 7 or 8. However, a 3 point whatever rating is insanely low for a show with a pretty good start. It's funny, but so far it's not laugh out loud funny. It is entertaining for sure, and I am looking forward to the next episode.

I imagine that this show will build develop these characters as it already shows great potential for being funny and heartfelt. The voice work is outstanding. I could listen to Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph argue about Crystal Light all day!

If you grew up broke, there might be a lot of aspects of this show that are familiar to you. I liked that it was relatable in a lot of ways.

UPDATE: I've now seen 8 episodes and I can't get enough of this show! The voice work continues to put a smile on my face, but the biggest attraction for me is the family's love for each other.

I liked Wayne from the start (he's possibly my favorite character along with Louise), but watching the story of how this family supports each other through it all has made me rewatch these episodes more times than I can count.

This show gets funnier and funnier (especially anything involving Maya Rudolph's character Betty), and it is almost painfully relatable. The stories of utilities getting cut off (last time our water got disconnected when I was growing up was just days before Thanksgiving and we couldn't pay all of those fees for a while), and I know all too well the process of putting $2 on one card, and $3 on another.

I adore this family, love how much the show makes me laugh, and I'm super impressed by its rewatchability (is that even a word? Well, it is today!)

Season 1 of Bless The Harts was pretty good but it started to decline in quality during season 2. It is not a great show but it is enjoyable enough. The animation quality and voice acting is good.

Watch past the first episode. The show is endearing. IT touches on social issues nd economical issues. If you only watch the first episode or only the first 5 mins then yes you will think its some show making fun of southerners. But there are plenty of themes beneath the surface. The humor isn't straight in your face. You have to find the way people say things and certain scenarios funny to enjoy this show.

Honestly, if you haven't watched Adult Swim shows before then you wont like this. This show is like Daria meets Hank of the Hill.

Okay so I watched this with the intention of enjoying it very well and that's what wound up happening there were laughs and enjoyment the people that give the bad reviews must not have any southern humor about them there's plenty to laugh at here well I saw plenty anyway it's southern humor like I said so I as a southern get it

I was hopeful for this show and usually the first episode uses up all of their best jokes. This had none so I'll move on to something else.

Only writing a review because I am really surprised by the poor ratings. I think it's a great show. I find it really funny. It just may not be everyone's type of humor, but it doesn't deserve 5/10 stars.

I don't understand all the hate this show has gotten right off the bat. I don't think the writing's laugh out loud funny, but it's pretty entertaining. It's very slice of life-y so far. I think it has the potential to be a lot funnier once we get to know the characters better. I mean, hey. I'd pick this any day over a recent Family Guy episode. It's especially relatable if you grew up poor or have been poor at any point in your life. A lot of shows on TV are really out of touch with how much of a struggle it can be for the lower class, so it's honestly kinda nice to watch something in a more realistic setting. You'll have characters in a lot of shows complaining about how broke they are when they live in basically a small mansion and can literally do whatever they want on a whim, and it's a lot different with this show. I'm curious to see where it goes, and I hope y'all give it more of a chance.

What exactly was it trying to be? Just alot of stereotypical lingo but not in a good way, it was brutal and cringing to not only watch but to listen to as well

I absolutely loved the Christmas episode with all the bread and milk jokes. This show is really relatable to me as someone as North Carolina. It's nice to see my state get more recognition on tv. Really looking forward to what comes next!

I don't know why this show was cancelled?!?.. The show is funny, wacky, weird and even heart felt.. The new cartoons suck and way out there & gross.. I wish they didn't cancel the show, my babies.. No more oooh weee 😕

Despite my adoration for Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph, I have to agree with the majority of the other reviewers in hoping for the swift cancellation of this abomination. What is supposed to pass for humor seems to be based solely on tired stereotypes and unidimensional caricatures of southerners. Possibly more egregious than the terrible writing is the insufferable voice acting. Why does everyone in this town, even everyone within the same family, speak with a strikingly different accent from everyone else? The whole show is simply a frustrating waste of time with nothing interesting or original to say.

I mean, let's take into consideration all the things it has going for it...

• It is created by Emily Spivey, who has written for MadTV, Saturday Night Live, Parks & Rec., Up All Night, Modern Family, The Last Man on Earth, AND King of the Hill(Where she served as a story editor from 2001-2003).

• It is produced by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller, a dynamic duo in both animation and comedy from the underrated MTV gem Clone High, the 21 Jump Street film series, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The LEGO Movie, The Last Man on Earth, and last year's Academy-Award Winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse.

• It stars Kristen Wiig(Who also serves as producer), Maya Rudolph, Ike Barinholtz, and Jillian Bell. All are extremely talented performers(in front of the camera and with voice) with serious range(Especially Wiig who may take on a serious career turn after being Cheetah in Wonder Woman 84 next year). Its guest stars include even Holly Hunter for goodness sake.

• It is set in the same universe as King of the Hill apparently(Mega-Lo Mart), even if its so minor a detail that is a huge attention draw in my book.

...And yet nothing about it works.

First of all the animation is not very good, the movement of the characters is always a bit off. The character designs are not particularly consistent when they should be.

The tone of the humor is all over the place, sometimes its trying to be grounded other times its trying to be pretty outlandish.

The storylines are pretty 'been there, done that' and don't hold enough interest for a half hour.

The characters are not really interesting, they're essentially cardboard cutouts of cardboard cutouts of other better characters that we have seen over and over again, the cast tries to make them fresh but the writing only allows them so far.

As I said before, this should work and be Grade A entertainment, but unfortunately it is a misfire.

Just saw the first episode. I did laugh out loud more than once and I liked the art and the characters. I think it will be fun to see it develop.

It's not like I'd rate this program a 7 or 8 or anythang ya'll, but there's some pretty funny stuff in there? I'm NC born & raised and I can relate to some of the plots and lines, fo sho. Like I say, it helps to actually be southern when it comes to appreciatin' a southern-flavored showgram? Have a good one, ya hear?

The only redeeming thing about this show is that it will not last long if it stays as bad as it is.

This deserves higher than 3. It's relatable realistic and lightly entertaining. I can't wait to see more.

It's not the best, it's not the worst, just something to watch

I'm not even southern and I could tell the voice actors didn't bother to put any effort into giving the characters actual accents.

The writing is terrible, every episode's plot turns on mocking the stupidity of one of the characters. Who in 2019 thought we needed a show where single note characters play one trope and that's it. No heart here at all.

To compare this with King of the Hill which had well rounded, real, dynamic, complex characters is like comparing lobster to worms.

I love this show. From episode one it's been a riot to watch. Dont try to compare it to anything, let alone king of the hill, and you'll love it. Read a review that has you biased already, then dont watch because you've already made up your mind by letting others dictate what you watch.

The characters are stupidly whitty, and from living in the south I get all the references and jokes.

Created an account just to say how bad this is. It uses the word "y'all" wrong which is just like nails on a chalkboard and inexcusable for a writer that based it on her "small town in North Carolina" (a town that has a population of 112,000). Y'all is not a singular, it's plural and nobody screws that up. It's just bad and really reinforces terrible and inaccurate southern stereotypes. Where King of the Hill was entertaining, southern, accurate and funny, Bless the Hart's is...uhh...star studded? That's about it. (And I should note I'm saying this as a true blue liberal born and raised southerner who now lives in the county where it takes place.)

There is nothing funny here. It's like someone has only heard stories of the south from a stupid and racist uncle or something. Just a ton of tired clichés. Lotto, Jesus, fried food, pick up trucks, unrecognizable accents, drinking all day, no real jobs, everyone is an idiot. They can't even get a fart joke right. Wasted money on all the 'Big' named actor leaving nothing for the horrible animation and insulting writing. I like so many others could see this failing after just seeing a 30 sec commercial. Not sure how stuff like this even gets made. Writing any more about how bad this show is would just be a waste of my time and this show is simple not worth it.
