Too much of everything

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Irreverent parents Dave (Michael Rapaport) and Vicky Gold (Anita Barone) are raising their three teens Hillary (Kaylee DeFer), Larry (Kyle Sullivan), and Mike (Dean Collins). This was a passable family sitcom. It's all been done before. Rapaport and Barone are good at loud-mouth combative parents. Michael has always had a morally ambivalence sense to him. For the father role, I like a more solid fatherly figure. Kyle Sullivan has the look and acting skills for his geeky character. Kaylee DeFer plays the hot teen Hillary. She definitely has the look, and there's nothing wrong with her acting. They never clicked as a great TV family but the show does have its fun. It did last two full seasons.

Well in england they play this only late at night. Its such a strange sitcom and i don't know what to make of it. A lot of the story lines are bland and stereotypical of the all American program. Homophobia seems to be a theme running through many of the episodes involving the dad. And the daughter drives me mad. She is again stereotypical of the American teenage girl. All she cares about is shopping and boys. This is just another American, laughing tracked (even when they aren't funny), stereotyped sitcom. But its addictive. I don't know why. I just can't help watching it.Please help me!

This show is verging on brilliant. It's a modern day Married...with Children. The scripts are witty, as they are sprinkled with clever sarcasm. They are also realistic, dealing with issues that face many parents of teenagers today. As well as the on going burden that you might not be the worlds greatest parent, and how is the best way to deal with this? However, at the same time, it manages to remain light hearted and fun. Which, with all the drama and action on television these days, is a very pleasant and welcome change. It is something you can sit down in front of for 30 minutes and relax, laugh and relate to. It isn't the world's most hilarious comedy. yet will make you laugh at least a handful of times an episode. Michael Rapaport is brilliant in the lead as Dave. He fills the big shoes that the heavily sarcastic script requires and then some. He and Anita Barone (Vikki) have fantastic chemistry and bounce off one another very well. This show has a strong future if it is marketed at the correct target audience, and put in the right time slot. Also, if Fox release it on DVD, the following will be stronger and larger. (As is a classic example with Scrubs.)

I grew up watching sitcoms such as Seinfeld, Roseanne, Simpsons, etc. etc. in other words mainstream television. Over the years many sitcoms have come on the air and of those a very small percentage are genuinally smart and funny. The War at Home is a prime example of the majority of modern American comedy.I give the show a 3 out of 10 because it is what it aims to be, a comedy, but it doesn't seem to go out of its way to be a good comedy. A good comedy should have you swept off your feet with its big jokes, you shouldn't be able to see them coming and in TWAH I see just about every joke coming. The characters are probably the most simplistic and horrible stereotypes I have seen yet on screen, and the acting isn't very good save for the father who portrays a stereotypical beer drinking sport loving American idiot perfectly.Poor acting, unbelievable characters, and jokes that don't catch you off guard detract from this show to a point of where it is unwatchable. If you don't have cable and would like to see a comedy worth watching, try Boston Legal. It is more worth your time.
