Strong and Moving!

Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Just not a believable dad in this role. His performance gives off a psycho vibe, like we only see one side of his schizophrenic personality but the evil madness leaks through anyway. You shudder for his daughters.

it is not a good or bad sitcom. it is only almost forced job, childish in few episodes, unconvincing in others, fake in some. but the good intentions, the subject, the acting are interesting pillars of a series who has as only basic sin the absence of clear direction. the family's problems, the children, the teenagers, the people from show's world, the errors, the confusions, the jokes, the run to success are pieces of a too large puzzle who could represent an abstract painting. a new build with old bricks from another series in chaotic order. that is all. one of comedies who are only expression of high and noble good intentions. nice but far to be seductive. that is See Dad Run for me.

The writing on this show is shockingly good. I had expected something that was just thrown together to try to appeal to an audience that would be interested in the novelty of Scott Baio returning to TV. Yes, this is in the classic sitcom format (parents, kids, living room, kitchen, life lessons, etc.), but the characters have gotten better and more integrated with one another, and the clever scripts and Baio's timing are far above other cable standard fare. The inclusion of Baio's character's former role as sitcom star is not as hokey as it might sound. It takes the edge off some of the "life lesson" content, and references to his prior gig make for good comedic fodder.

In my opinion I like it (mainly because of Ryan Newman, relax I'm 16) the show is kind of like a lot of other sitcoms with a irresponsible dad who can't raise his kids too well (he use to be on a TV show for a decade), a somewhat strict mom, a bratty daughter, a strange son and the youngest daughter who is all ways telling on the older ones, and his weird assistant. But I really do enjoy it and I have a few good laughs here and there but I can really focus on it no matter what, it's another one of my favorite shows now.In my opinion everybody should at least give it a chance instead of just saying "meh" but that's just my opinion. I have to give it a 10 out of 10 cause I really do enjoy the show.
