Reviews

horrorflicklover I had a different review of this show before. But I think that wanting to like it led me to be more lenient on it than it ever deserved. It was a bad show. A great premise that failed due to absolutely wretched writing. Which shows you how much CBS cared about it in the first place.It can't be that hard to work with the material that the Twitter/Facebook page provided. At least not if you're a WRITER. Sure, I probably couldn't have been much funnier. I'm also not in that career path, employed by a television network no less. This show WRITES ITSELF. The problem might be that the writers took that statement too literally. Is it really that hard to make a caricature of a cantankerous, witty old man when you were gifted numerous insights in to his personality? The failings of this show were the flimsy plots and mediocre jokes. Provided, each episode might give you a couple of solid laughs. However, that means little, especially when you consider what we SHOULD have gotten from it. It should have been the breakout hit of the season.If you didn't catch $#*! My Dad Says during its brief run, you didn't miss much at all. Just a lot of wasted potential. It tried to be edgy in certain avenues, but ultimately came across as a watered-down blow off.
ykrzeslo i really did not know what to expect from this. Then i saw it was a KOMUT show. So OK, let's give it a try. After half of the pilot i was hooked. William Shatner is excellent . He reminds me of my own father ( :-) ) The situations are also great (WS in a gay restaurant, i mean it's priceless). The only downside is Henry, he needs to get more lines or act a little bit better. The relations between WS and his sons are also greatly written. Full of humor but there's always a message underneath.The show will really take off if they have guest stars , noticeable guest stars (like all the Star Trek crew members :-) Jean Smart is great . There is chemistry between her and WS.
michaeltje Yeeezzz this show doesn't air in the netherlands yet but boy is this show cool..I hope that one of the commercial networks buys this series . Shatner in a role i didn't( or come to think of it 'i knew') think he was cut out for. Although i knew he could be funny. ("Trouble with tribbels" I know that comparison isn't the greatest..:))I saw the title of the in a usenet dbase and checked it out. It was so funny i had to see if I could get my hands on all the other episodes. They get funnier every week. So i can't wait for the next episode...that last episode...president of the home owners association. Great last scene...ROFL...All in all a very good laugh for me on Saturday evening...because then i can see it.
trugg-863-229204 I love Shatner! Boston Legal was his best acting and the perfect character for him. I was sad when they ended it. When I saw the previews for this I was excited for it. The first episode was kinda bumpy, with an occasional laugh. Shatner is good, but no Denny Crain. For the supporting cast Henry (Jonathon Sadowski) is just outright annoying. He looks like he's gonna laugh before almost every joke. I wish I had a dollar for every time he says "But Daaaaad?" He's a 10 year old in the body of an adult. His brother Vince (Will Sasso) is a bigger version of Henry, another whiny b-word. So far, he has had two episodes full out neurosis over the littlest of things. Th first is one about a rash on his wife- that is barely visible, and for some reason looks like spaghetti and meatballs, but they never say WHY spag+mb's makes him sick. Frankly it made me hungry, not sick. Bad writing. In the most recent episode he is so upset that his wife fooled around with Henry's friend (years ago)that he kisses the guy at the end of the show!?!?!? It seems like this show is trying to be shocking, but it just doesn't work. It goes from subtle to over the top in 5 minutes. The most recent episode has Ed trying to retrieve Henry's jacket from a corpse, and there are elements of good comedy, but when they get the jacket, both characters touch the jacket without the slight indication of thought that it was previously on a dead body!!! Nicole Sullivan is funny (as usual) and redeeming as Bonnie, but not enough for me to give this show another shot...
