"Do Over" is about a single 34 year old guy who ends up back in his 14 year old body reliving that part of his life. It's really funny and enjoyable to watch how he changes the past for the better. Michael Milhoan plays his macho father and he's excellent. His mother & sister are good too. So is his friend Pat Brody played by Josh Wise. Penn Badgley plays the 14 yr. old Joel Larsen and plays it just right. I hope the future episodes will be as good.
My wife and I (her 32, me 29) enjoyed the first episode of the show. It was great nostalgia of high school in the early 1980s. (Granted some of the music didn't match up with the year 1981.) But it was enjoyable. It brought the enjoyment that we thought last years "That 80s Show" would bring. Of course "That 80s Show" was horrible!!! This show, so far, is doing it right. And since we were both HUGE fans of "Freaks & Geeks", it was nice to see Cindy Sanders and Coach Fredricks in this show. Watch the show and support it...maybe for once a network will allow a good show to last!
Yeah, there was something wrong with the entire WB network and it has to do with the bad relationship WB network president Jamie Kellner and the rest of the entire WB network. Jamie's not favored on this show and that's why this show got messed up during the first half of its single season and then discontinued in the wrong time by the TV critics. Thank god, the WB network is officially shut down back in 2006.
This show is reasonable, but it needs to be rebooted in the low public cable network so it can last 1 or more seasons. Joel's current adult age should be changed from 34 to 54, this time.

I honestly enjoyed watching this show. It was really quite amusing and I think that the concept of going back and changing your life is really great. I was very disappointed that it got canceled and that it was never really given it's fair chance. I think Joel is an adorable and honest character, i would have liked to see more of him and his family!
I watched the series premiere of this show last night and it is the funniest show I've seen on the WB Network in a while. Not only is it funny, but it's clever, thoughtful, and exciting as well. Although only one episode has aired so far, it has already became one of my favorite shows. On an unrelated note, It's good to see Thomas F. Wilson [probably best known as Bif in the BACK TO THE FUTURE TRILOGY] in a television show again. This is one of the best new shows of the season.
