Baby Bob

First off, I'm getting really mad at those who commented on this dreck, and were positive about it. This is one of the worst shows out there, and one of the most ill-conceived ones for that matter. I mean a talking baby? What's up with that? I mean the whole concept won't work, and it's truly creepy really it is. And how can all of those talented actors, and actresses accept to be on this show? Joely Fisher, Adam Arkin, Eliot Gould. What were you guys thinking? I hope this crap gets canceled soon, but frankly it should have been canned after it first aired.

This show gets no stars.

(stepping up on my soapbox) I'm sick to death of all these TV shows, commercials and movies where babies act like "adults"! Baby Bob certainly takes the cake! I saw this show one day while flipping through the channels and was horrified to find Elliott Gould and Adam Arkin sinking to their career lows. Just because we have the CGI technology to make a baby talk doesn't mean we need to base an entire series around it, and a darn spooky looking one at that! Talking, dancing, singing babies are NOT cute and don't deserve a sitcom!!!

This show was great. And it was canceled only a little into the first season. If it wasn't developed enough, or the plot wasn't used to it's fullest, it's because the show wasn't given the chance. Often, first seasons are just finding their footing and aren't the best seasons. Later seasons, if this show hadn't been canceled so early would have gotten better. The whole idea of a baby talking was very funny. And the things the baby said- even funnier. And the parents having to hide the fact that their baby was talking, could have been very funny for a long time too.

What the Fudgecicle? Found this by accident at 8am on a Saturday morning on Sky One (UK channel). This has to be the worst thing I've seen on TV. As others have said, there were some big names attached to this series... Why, one wonders?? Must've been pretty big paycheques!

There's a very creepy scene where the Grandfather (after a failed audition with the 'talking' baby) says "This will be our little secret", the baby says "I'm good at keeping secrets"... Did anybody actually *read* this script before filming it?

Strange, strange TV execs with more money than sense are still going strong I see! :-P

Well at least it got canned pretty sharpish! Someone must have woken up at the controls!!

Talking Baby pictures are, almost by definition, atrociously bad, because they HAVE to be. I tuned this one for no other reason than to see how atrociously bad these things will continue to be. Waddayaknow---actually entertaining and funny. Primarily because Bob doesn't really talk very much, and the action goes on around the presence of Bob in the lives of his parents, including warmly-shaped mom, who, at least in the first episode, in her wardrobe, was an incredible feast for the eyes. This is really just an average sit-com, but a relief to find out that a talking-baby picture can somehow be bootsrapped up to average. As a talking baby pic, the head-and-shoulders runner-up to the Mercedes "He's my dad" commercial of several years ago.
