It is so easy to criticize it. ignoring not only the good intentions but the real virtues. and the basic not bad idea. the critics are, in many cases, result of the serious perspective about politic. or the expectation to meet a sarcastic/ironic serie about the world of White House. but this serie propose just a gallery of ordinary characters in the extraordinary place. and not the humor represents its great virtue but the realistic portrait of a family. with crisis, children, a father not special and a genius son versus a not brilliant another. the humanism did this serie more than nice, almost special.

Honestly I think I would enjoy this show more (in fact I might like it) if they got rid of Josh's character (named Skip) in the show. He plays a really ignorant and often irritating character that makes the show not very enjoyable to watch. If fact I have the urge to change the channel when he comes up.I enjoy the other characters and would continue watching this if his character was basically made as a very small role or non-existent. I have nothing against the actor... it's just the writing of the role stinks. He whines way to much as well. I know he is trying to play a role where people may ask "What is wrong with that guy?" but it gets really old quick and at this point enough for me to stop watching the show. It's grating on you emotionally to watch.

I had a great time watching 1600. My husband and I laughed so hard at Skip and the whole First family. Well written and executed. I don't shake hands either I give Huggs😃. I am suggesting this show to all of my friends as a Must Watch..... Its great to laugh at their issues and watch the way the handle life's ups and downs. I feel like the casting is great! The first show is probably the funniest. all of the shows are filled with life lessons and hearty laughter. Skip is always doing such funny things in the background. I wish I knew more about how the President and the First Lady got to be together. There are two younger kids that are kinda strange. The sister is a good balance for Skip.Thank you!!!

I love a good comedy. 1600 Penn is not one of them. To sit through the pilot was worse than going to the dentist! I actually couldn't wait for it to end! I kept waiting for it to get funny but it never happened. Bill Pullman should be ashamed of himself. He looked so out of place on this show. Do they even show this to people before airing it on prime time television to see if they think it is good? I don't even want to watch another episode to see if it improves. That is how bad this show is. I hate to be a downer but that is my truthful opinion of this train wreck NBC calls a comedy. I can see why the cable networks are killing the major networks. Shows like this are proof!
