scinema Jobeth Williams, Richard Dreyfuss, Cynthia Stevenson, and Ed Begly Jr. They are the only reason this show keeps anyone coming back. Not hard to see why. They're seasoned actors that carry us through each formulaic episode order. This show in particular has an every-other-episode way about it.Every other episode features Williams and Dreyfuss, or Stevenson and Begly Jr. Our two main characters (Kyle Howard, Kat Foster) are a loving couple, with two kids, and probably a nice little house, white picket fence, etc. They spend each episode at either parent's house where off-the-wall issues ensue. Premise is promising. The trials and tribulations that a couple have to endure as they work through the differences and culture clash of the parents they're visiting. Each episode feature's the other side of the family. This is common ground that any married couple will have to deal with, so it's a relatively approachable and identifiable status. No big deal, except that the writing (ie-punch lines, gag response et al) are a little too predictable in this day and age. We've seen it all before. Supporting siblings (brothers sisters) are easy to pin-point. Sibling rivalry's and difference of opinion seems to be the ONLY arc that comes forth in any given episodic visit. The aforementioned four Parental units are often relegated to modern day lingo complete with swearing, sex humor, and often falling to the same cliché'd behavior as the younger characters. Perhaps this is because they are marketing it for the unfortunate younger demographic, as just about any and every network, production co. and media format seems to do. Shame. Next there is the acting itself. Our two main cast members Kyle Howard and Kat Foster are enthusiastic but amateur in their portrayals. You'd see the same thing in a standard high school or college production. They give it there best shots every episode and some of it can be adorable at best, but it always pales in comparison to the supporting players. In fact, all the supporting players who feature in every other episode are far more interesting and the cast entertaining. Some new direction and writing might clean this up, maybe. The goods surely come from said parental actors. The issue's that come with a non-original member of either family are not unfamiliar but that way either Williams and Dreyfuss, or Stevenson and Begly Jr. pull it off, it's always fun and endearing, no matter how pedestrian or acrid some of the material can be. It's all about the parent's here.

da_beava This is another in an increasingly long line of horrible TBS endeavors. The cast seems to play to the audience rather than the camera giving it a very "high school drama club" feel. The writing on this show is horrible. I have watched three episodes now and each one is worse than the last. The jokes are obvious and pedantic while the delivery feels like first year improv class. Richard Dreyfuss, Kat Foster and Angela Kinsey have all proved themselves to be capable of far better performances than what is seen here. It's almost painful to see these wonderful actors lower themselves to this public access level. I'm thoroughly disappointed with every aspect of this flying turd of a show.

sharp-60469 The writing is crazy terrible. Crude sex references seem to be the main goal here (must take a lot of brain power to fit in a mention of blow jobs every single episode).It's a shame because the concept of the show is interesting and different but if the plots weren't bad enough, the cast is just flat and unfunny. Did the producers of this show realize the writing was this bad and tried to save the concept by tossing in some well known names to salvage it? Please end this show. Even re-runs of the Big Bang Theory are better than this junk.

Aktham Tashtush Nice sitcom, tightly written .. the plot is good so far, i felt the comedy through the tension in the "Weston" family .. it's called "Your Family Or Mine" and they presented one side of the story so i think there's still more to it. So the storyline seems to be okay for a pilot ,, there were a hand full of comedy bits, i smiled i giggled .. it's the pilot so they're probably testing the audience taste but generally there off to a good start.Yet i think they need to bring out more variety to the show , or lets say more eventful sets ,,, i mean the whole pilot was in two rooms the kitchen and the living room so i believe they need to show more sets which reflects more stories.As a new comedy it is a huge thing that they got to be distributed by tbs so they must'v seen something special in it .,.The casting was fine, Kat Foster is allover TV lately "Franklin & Bash","Bad Teacher", "The Goodwin Games" and even in "Royal Pains" before that ,, so they knew she's gonna be good in here ,, same goes for "Kyle Howard" from "Royal Pains" they'r making a good couple here,so overall the pilot went okay ... lets see how it's gonna get for the couple next episodes.
