There are no user reviews yet - Be first to review The Upshaws.
-
The Upshaws has “good sitcom bones”, but is so saddled with tired plots and dialogue it just makes for a show that feels like it’s already stale, even though it just started.
-
And no, the “mom who gets things done while the dad gets to mess up and around” conceit isn’t exactly brand new territory for a sitcom to tread. But when a show is this willing to find new ways to make such tropes more grounded and relatable, it’s worth checking out.

To say that “The Upshaws” is stuck in the ’70s doesn’t quite do it. The 1970s? Or the 1870s? ... The jokes are entrenched in racial stereotyping and clichés. “The Upshaws” was meant to be transgressive, one imagines. It’s harder to imagine who’ll be laughing.
