Call Your Mother

I get it. Not every scene is going to make us belly laugh. And of course, it may take several episodes for an eclectic cast of characters to click on all cylinders. After watching the first episode my first clue this series was going to bomb was when that obnoxious canned laughter started. Why don't the producers can the canned laughter and replace it with a big honking sign at the bottom of the TV screen that says "PLEASE LAUGH NOW".

I give it a 4 out of 10 IMDB rating to give the young actors at least a chance to complete more than the announced four (4) episodes, but I won't hold my breath waiting for anymore episodes to appear.

Sorry but I am just being honest. This is not a laughing matter.

Terrible acting. I can't stand the goofy looking daughter. Dave Foley plays the same character he did in New Christine. Too many old people jokes. Heck..I am older than these people and know what's going on. Kinda insulting.

I tuned into this new show because I watch the programs preceding it and I like Kyra Sedgwick. With that said, I found her character over the top needy. She was annoying. And the characters of her children were not much better. The best part of the show is the very cute dog. Perhaps they should build the show around it.

Canceling Single Parents was a bonehead move. Putting this alop on as a replacement double bonehead points. The son and daughter are the reason. Horrible, horrible actors. It's like they have never acted before. This has a good premise but all characters are boring. The two kids make this show the absolute worst series on TV today. Total junk.

I'll give any sitcom a chance, and I did. I watched two episodes and have now taken it off of my dvr record list. If I happen to come across it again, I may watch another episode, but I doubt. It's just very mediocre. It won't last.
