    It combos clichéd plots like marriage problems and familial discord with attempted stabs at topical hot-button issues (Stella is gay for a scene), but does justice to neither and appears disinterested in its own goings-on in the process.

    Filled with predictable jokes, stereotypical characters and situations that wouldn’t have been fresh two decades ago, the new comedy wastes its premise and all but deserts star Patrick Warburton, the only one who appears to be making an effort.

    A new sitcom on NBC that feels like it aired in the early 1990s and is a huge disappointment and groaning mistake.

    Instead of poking fun of modern families with millennials who return home and the awkwardness that can create, viewers are treated to over involved parents who placate their kids and exacerbate their own problems. This is not only frustrating to watch but completely unfunny.

    NBC comedy has been a wasteland for the past few years. With the exception of "Superstore," nothing has worked. "Crowded" follows thatNBC comedy has been a wasteland for the past few years. With the exception of "Superstore," nothing has worked. "Crowded" follows that pattern. It's about empty nesters whose kids move back in. Hilarity ensues... except it doesn't. The show isn't clever or funny. It's boring and pathetic. Luckily, given the numbers, it shouldn't be on the air too long. Full Review »
