Has to be one of the most underrated shows ever, I thought it was halirous and one of the best comedys ever. It sad that it got cancelled, thought I wasnt surprised when it did with how FOX treated the show. I thought it was brilliantly written, and the charactors in the show are great, and amazingly portrayed. It was years ahead of its time, and using a single-camera made it even better.

Anybody else a fan of this show?

I didn't watch it regularly but this was the period of time where I stopped watching television regularly and started going out. From what I saw, it was pretty good.

By far the best american sitcom made in the last 10 years. Prehaps even ever

It and Seinfeld are probably the two best comedy shows of all-time. Without a doubt. They are that good.

Yeah

The problem was, it never got ratings because Fox being the clueless tits that they are had no idea how to market it.

ridiculously funny. but def one of those shows you have to watch every episode in order. Otherwise you won't get it at all.

I've been meaning to purchase the first season. I've only watched 3 whole shows ( on G4 channel ) and it was perhaps some of the best laughs i've had in quite sometime. Especially the surrogate father parts. I laughed my ass off when i first seen the surrogate father. The show was hilarious. I'm buying the first season this week probably.

I've seen every episode like 4 times and I'm not usually some geek who watches something 4 times, but I am an AD geek.

George Sr.: Listen... Let him go. Let your son go.
Michael: I can't do that, Dad. He needs me.
George Sr.: Michael, you don't want to make the same mistake your mom made with Buster.
Michael: Yeah, boy. What happened there?
George Sr.: I really don't know. Maybe it was the eleven months he spent in the womb. The doctor said there were claw marks on the walls of her uterus. But he was her "miracle baby." And I-I was just too burnt out on raising you guys to care. So... he turned out a little soft, you know, a little doughy.
[Buster yawns next to him]
George Sr.: I don't know, maybe it was my fault. Maybe, uh, maybe I just ignored the guy.
[Buster finishes yawning although George Sr is ignoring him]
Buster: Wow. We're just blowing through nap time, aren't we?
Michael: Yeah, I got to let my son go.

You pick up so much small shit from watching it again, guess it 'rewards the viewer' in that way

Just wait till you get back to those episodes after seeing the rest of them.

They will be funnier on at least 4 different levels.

Yeah, kind of want to do it again but this time go with cut offs entire time. I wore the cut-offs under some khakis, was a bitch to piss let me tell you that, and would pull down khakis when requested. Plan was to go to bathroom and come out in just cut offs, but alas I have no balls.

BTW that documentary they filmed me for should be out pretty soon but I hope they don't use me at all. My answers were so horrible. I think I gave the same answer to three different questions.

And I'm mad at myself for not saying " Let Lionel Lick Lucy's Lusty Leathers" when they did the mic check. :(
