    Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

    Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

    I recently started watching on Netflix. The premise of the show was great. Focusing around Foster kids and the flaws with the system. The lesbian parents fostering all different kids and teens. BUT...after the first few episodes, it went downhill. I almost stopped watching but wanted to see how the show all played out. Here are my problems with the show: Its too unrealistic. The acting is HORRID from most of the cast. The adults were pretty much all great actors, but the kids and teens on the show were so embarrassingly awful. Not to mention that most of the actors playing the kids and teens were way older than their characters in real life. Having callie and Brandon fall in love even though they were potential foster siblings was a good story line, but the fact that they dragged it out for almost all seasons was so stupid and pointless. The kids were always doing something stupid in every episode, even though they knew the consequences of their past stupid decisions. The show focuses too much on SEX. Thats fine in adult soap opera shows, but this is a show about kids and young teens. The show has the youngest boy only being 13/14 looking at gay porn and wanting to know about sex, and Callie and Jesus being under-aged also having sex on the show with multi partners, with the parents not even caring..just giving them condoms. The guy who played Brandon was not cute so I don't know why they chose that actor to play him. In every episode, his upper lip was always sweating. The show is unrealistic because not too many adoptive parents would be so willing and happy to let their adoptive children spend so much time with their biological parents and have everyone all together getting along like that. Don't get me started about AJ. Not only was he a bad actor, but his character was so pointless. Can the writers please have callie not fall for all foster siblings already? This show had potential but really fell flat with delivery. I like how the show had portrayed the truth about whats wrong with our justice system, how foster kids are treated horribly and how to accept diversity, especially with the LGBT community. The problem is that the storylines were horrible and the writing was not good at all. So disappointing.

    This show tries to stop homophobia, racism, and show the reality about this world. World is corrupted and this show tries to demonstrate it.

    Well done initially, but as the first season progressed the dramas piled on like Twister players. Completely unbelievable by the end. The final straw was when the parents decided to have a baby in the midst of it all. Yes, that's definitely the way to cope with the recently departed grandparent, the co-parent with substance abuse issues, and the FIVE teens or tweens, several of whom have had serious behavioral issues in the past year, one of whom was recently adopted, and one of whom remains in a gray limbo zone of foster-childness, complicated by her ongoing attraction to her alleged brother-to-be. Yep. Perfect time to have a baby.

    This is by far the worst TV show I have ever seen.. in my life. Let's start with a couple (the fact that they are lesbians is irrelevant for now) formed from not one, but two broken previous relationships.. with kids. This is sad. Don't make a show glorifying it. Any way you look at it, it sucks. OK, but does it really make sense that this family of 5 is going to adopt two more kids? Unlikely, right? Well, then they double down and one of them "wants to experience motherhood." OK, if only there were someone around with ejaculate... geez.. we didn't think this through did we.Here is a summary of every episode: - two mothers want to do something stupid - go about it in the most brain dead way - insert evil, white male who always acts to thwart the two women - sad kids - kids doing things they shouldn't, but in today's 'hey who the heck cares?' world, they do and the "moms" can't keep up because they are too busy scheming to be in the position to notice. - evil, white men give up - two lesbian women have sex
