jimpanko1 Found the show on Amazon and binged the whole thing. Everyone cracked me up, reminded me a bit like our family. Love Leah and Angelo especially! Read some of the other reviews and I have to say...If your expectations were that of a character portrayed on TV you were bound to be disappointed no matter what because they aren't them. So many favorite moments hard to choose one. BTW I LOVE Trish!

daphnesmills I love this show!!! I always enjoyed Leah on King of Queens but, seeing her with her family is hilarity at its finest! Like she's says, "You can't make this sh** up!!!" I laughed, I cried and I got to see an actress (star) being 'normal' for a change. I hate (and I do mean hate) reality TV. It's fake, scripted most of the time and feels so empty. But, the Remini family feels genuine and believable. Leah shows us that she is grounded and stays that way surrounded by her family and friends. I hope and pray this show continues for many more seasons because I truly enjoy getting to watch it. Every family member and close friend is a joy to watch. I didn't find myself wanting to turn it off even once. YAY!!! Good job TLC!!!

donnatirella I appreciate Leah Remini's acting and her ability to keep it real on THE TALK. This show, however, is just awful. If this is her family life, I don't find it funny or enjoyable, only sad. We all have some strange family aspects, but it doesn't warrant putting it on TV. This show is comparable to Honey Boo Boo which I watched for 37 seconds before wanting to vomit. I made it halfway through this program before the same sensation began to stir. Also, Leah's taste in everything is terrible: makeup that could be scraped off with a squeegee, a hideous, ill-fitting, red glitter dress (boobs a bursting) for a backyard party that added to the Las Vegas sideshow decor of the event.Leah, you can do better than this type of program. Don't exploit yourself or your family for laughs. You can't need the money that badly. If you do, "all in the family" should get a job at McDonald's.

atlasmb Having watched the first two episodes of this new offering by TLC, I love it. Imagine a cross between "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and Kathy Griffin's "My Life on the D-List".Leah and family don't bother with ignoring the cameras. They talk to the crew, they talk to us through the cameras, they sit down and discuss (with us) the events of the day. It has the feel of a real-life sitcom where the actors make asides to the audience.Leah is the wise-cracking wife that we have come to love in "King of Queens". Seriously, did she write all her own lines on that show? She is versatile as a comedienne. One moment she is the stand up comic doing her shtick, the next she is playing straight man to one of her family members.About her family, she says, "We are loud...annoying...judgmental..." That pretty much describes most sitcom families. She calls her husband Angelo "The Silver Fox". They have a give and take relationship. He takes her grief and he gives it back to her. Their daughter, Sofia, is a budding comic. She offers some of the best lines. Leah's parents are Vicki and George. Vicki may remind you of Kathy Griffin's mother. In the second episode, they give her faux funeral eulogies that are half roasts and half tearful tributes. This is a close family full of love.Shannon and William are the sister and brother-in-law. Shannon has some of the family comedy genes. They laugh about their sisterly competitiveness.The nanny is Trish. Did they pick her up at Central Casting, because she seems to be a hoot.The Remini's have some famous friends. Cheryl Burke from "Dancing With the Stars" is a personal friend. I have always enjoyed her on that show. Other famous friends appear at the party they throw to celebrate those who stuck by them when they left the Church of Scientology. Some serious moments are spent discussing the church and its strict, controlling rules. It must be a hilarious experience to be a member of the film crew. I am looking forward to more of Leah and her family. Can we possibly hope that Jennifer Lopez or some other friends drop by to hang out with Leah and her irrepressible brood?
