Those are real problems too that break up families.

I'm sick of the obsession with this city period. Wasn't born there but spent every summer of my childhood there. Bankhead? the Omni? don't I remember

I agree with you on this one. They also need a live audience because it seems so dry. Tyler really needs to venture out on other problems that can be stressfull on a family other than somebody cheating or being on drugs. I don't know I about this show; I still hope that it does well and proves me wrong but I really don't see it lasting. Hopefully my opinion will change as it grows.

I agree with many comments in this thread! I definitely think that the characters are over-acting, the lines are a bit corny, it seems like they are trying to force laughter, they continue to over-act like they are on stage and he needs to realize that that theatre and TV are TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT things. The quality of the show is poor, the actors mess up, there are awkward pauses and silence, and the list could go on and on. I feel bad for Tyler, I love his movies but this is not getting it. However, there are a lot of supporters on his website that absolutely love the show...who knows?

Anyway the one and only time that i did laugh was when the father broke out in that prayer....HAHAHAHA
