Children Ruin Everything

I think the lack of a laugh track has thrown off some folks who've given this a low rating. It's funny and slightly over the top 🤣 The actors have great chemistry both romantic and comedic.

Love the it's actually set in Toronto with nods to things in the area. Looking forward to seeing where this story goes from here.

For those who don't have a stick up their bottom about how perfect they and their kids are, you'll love this show!

For those whose reviews were insultingly bragging about how perfect they and their kids were, wait for the therapy bill when they get older, and be prepared to probably die alone, while they resent you for never letting them behave like children when they were children? And maybe pull the stick out a little since it is only a television show?

Hubby and I loved this show and how lighthearted it was! It didn't take itself too seriously, cover a lot of relatable topics, and, despite what some of the reviews say, does give some comparison to different parenting styles as well as opinions on having children at all.

I know its not artsy, its a typical rom com tv show.

Its not the best in the world like friends, but its watchable and fun.

The little girl is funny as well.

EDIT 02/02/22: Ok this show is growing on me fast. It's actually hilarious and although the characters are "over-performing", it works. The episodes are real-world parenting issues told in the most entertaining way. All cast (including the newest ones) are all excellent, and Letterkenny's Lisa Codrington as Marla is funny af. Meaghan Rath and Aaron Abrams are perfectly cast and their chemistry works like a charm. The little brats are still cute as ever. I'm upping my score to a 8/10. Can't wait to see what the writers come up with next.

Original review: If you're considering having kids, this show might change your mind. So far so good for the pilot. All the funny stuff shown in the TV trailers was pretty much in this episode, and was still funny. The cast and performances were spot on, and the little brats were, well, brats. For now it's a 7/10 because I've seen everything in the trailers and knew what I'd get, so let's see what the next episodes give us.

Hubby and I love the show however everything lisa codrington acts during the show makes me fast forward past her scene. Her overacting doesnt' match the rest of the show and throws the mojo off. I cant stand it. I am almost at the point of not watching anymore. It has become a real distraction. Not impressed with her. Take her out and put more focus on the family with a new boss lady! Lisa codrington is likely a great actress however, her over the top character doesn't do the show any justice. I love the new direction of how the show might end up. Loving all the other characters and new baby. Hope the management sees my opinion. I do love the show just without lisa.
