    I look forward to the show every week. It is a great show for adults and kids. I admire the endings as Rev. Run lies in bed with his wife go recapping on what happened during the day and coming to a conclusion about the day. He relationship with his wife is both comical and loving. His words of wisdom given at the end of the show are encouragements for us all. I believe it is an excellent I look forward to the show every week. It is a great show for adults and kids.

I believe it is an excellent show not only for current parents but also for future parents like myself. He shows the need to have time for family by playing games with them, discussing situations that are on their minds even if he has to ask his brother for help. We all have to do that sometimes. A remarkable family… Expand

    I saw this show for the first time this weekend. I fell in love with this family. Those critics are always a mess! Don't trust them. This is a positively good show. I stopped watching MTV years ago, but I will be watching Run's House! Way to go Joey and Jus!

    I love it, I love it! This is one of my favorite show. I feel like I know Ron and his family. His wife is very funny and she just cracks me up. I tell my sweetheart all the time that I love watching this show. I will make it my business to be at home and posted up in the bed, ready to watch Ron's House. Keep this show on as long as you can!

    Alright, and way to go Run family!!! Man I cant wait to get married and have a family (even thou I am already 37) I love this family. Everyone on this show would be what i want in my own family. To Run and his wife, well done in staying together, and raising a respectable family. You remind me of another Cobsy. I never watch MTV i was channel flicking and cant get enough of this show.

    I love the show. Why is it when we have a black family who represents values and ethics... The critics say its not good or just another show. I hope it stays as long as the others did

    This show takes the 9 in my view. Its refreshing to finally see a show that doesn't snub "have nots" . Even though they obviously have money, the show is not based on their material possessions, but how they live as a family. Refreshing!

    I Love this show. It's about time the public gets the opportunity to see the positive side to a "real" black family. My husband and I grew up on RunDMC and we watch the show together every week. Our children are 3 and 1years old, so we are taking notes on how Rev. Run and his lovely wife handle situations. Thank you Rev. Run for being a positive black husband and father.

    Seems staged, and it's just another reality show thrown in the mix.

    It's great to see a wealthy family that doesn't focus on how much money they can spend to show the world how rich they are. They are closely knit and the father is an active figure in the household. Please show more TV like this. Kids today need to know how a good family structure can be.

    I enjoyed the show. I watched a replay with some family that convinced me that it was hilarious. And by the end of the show, I agreed. It's refreshing to see something other than sex, violence, gang-bangin' and money slangin'. I will be tuning in for the next episode.

    best family oriented show in a very long time, they strike me as the hip-hop huxtables, I know that may sound cheesy but they do. The first episode only left me wanting more, and I can't wait for the next episode.

It was refreshing to see people with money actually show us family values. They were actually at their children's party and monitoring the activities something I would do and have done.

    Ron's parenting approach and his love for his family is a breath of fresh air compared to the "other" family reality shows. Finally a tv figure who's doing and living it the right way.

    I loved this show! It was 2005 meets 1985... Cosby's becomes Reality TV. It's hysterical, positive and just plain fun to watch. It's a feel good show that allowed a peek into the lives of a wealthy, grounded and loving African-American family. I'll definitely be tuning in next week.

    I feel the first night of the show was all right and if some think it is boring then that's what you get for being nosey. This is a reality show about Run's family and if his daughter is having a party thrown for her during taping then thats the reality. Duh!! Unlike Ozzy you can at least understand what Run is talking about

    While watching Ozzy and Sharon was like peeking in on real-life Munsters, Run's House plays more like Full House--and feels just as dated. [14 Oct 2005, p.142]

    The show's traditional approach explains its appeal as well as its limits.
