    Love the show. It’s funny, with great characters, especially the kids, which are amazing.

    Nothing to see here. A pretty typical ABC comedy where white adult men are portrayed as dumber than dirt.

    Bad scripts, bad acting, poor casting = ABC comedy. Tried several episodes just to make this review fair. The show has not improved. The lead character’s arrogance that he is the better parent plays weak, while he shows absolutely no leadership skills at work (also weak). The    Nothing to see here.

    Tried several episodes just to make this review fair. The show has not improved. The lead character’s arrogance that he is the better parent plays weak, while he shows absolutely no leadership skills at work (also weak). The kids out-act the adults by a mile and isn’t that more than just a little sad.

    So far nothing objectionable, but also nothing there to justify regular viewership.

    Yea! Down the trash chute! At least this was a brief assault on our intelligence.    … Expand

    Sarcar and Braff have minimal chemistry, but the story elements about Rooni’s attempt to make sense of Alex’s decisions and help him on this journey work well enough. Both kids are scene-stealingly cute, in different ways.

    Thwarted by same-old sitcom scripting, full of adults’ childish bickering and laden with “irony” setups. ... The saving grace for the show, as for Alex, becomes his family. Through the first three episodes, they’re a nicely knit group with real chemistry and real concerns vs. the podcasts-for-dummies approach to his workplace.

    The new series is simply too old-fashioned to feel relevant. ... Worst of all, the most memorable jokes involve Alex repeatedly falling down.
