everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Best movie of this year hands down!

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I saw the trailer for this and it peeked my interest and now after watching it, it wasn't a bad show.It has a pretty big main cast, all of them awesome, especially Malin Akerman, Bradley Whitford and Marcia Gay Harden, but there were some points where it felt like there were too many chefs in the kitchen (5 adults and 3 kids). I didn't really like the character of Meg Gomez (Natalie Morales), who played the best friend of the lead character, Kate Harrison (Akerman) and just felt she was unnecessary and just a filler.There weren't any laugh out loud moments for me but it was funny and entertaining, including cameos from Megan Mullally, Ken Marino and Florence Henderson.It was entertaining enough to watch but not something I would watch again and not something that I'm upset about being cancelled.

I enjoyed this show. I am sad that it got cancelled. I think it had a good concept. A trophy wife who turns out isn't a gold-digger. This show had a really funny cast and honestly, I was very disappointed that it got cancelled.This show is about a thirty-something year old woman who marries an older man. He has already had two wives and three children. So with all of them together, a lot of stuff goes down. The kids are hilarious and so is the "trophy wife".Overall, I give this TV show a 7 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Great.

This show was not misogynistic in any way, on the contrary, it was a show that celebrated women. Yes the wonderful Bradley Whitford is the main man but the show does not revolve around him. Rather, it revolves around the women in his life. And although some surface reader types might have looked at him and seen his new young wife and assumed she was a Trophy Wife the whole point is that she was absolutely not a trivial piece of arm candy. The whole point was that she was a sweet, funny and slightly insecure young lady who was trying desperately to fit in to a ready made and very tightly bound family. Kate, the main character, takes on this Herculean task for one main reason, she truly loves this man. And his children. Kate has a very hard road to travel since the new man in her life comes complete with three children and two ex-wives, all of whom are much smarter and more capable than she (well Jackie and Warren may have been the exception).She comes in and learns and learns and grows up along the way. This show told the story of so many families who are trying to figure out how to not allow divorce (even multiple) divorces to rob their children of a tight family unit. It featured excellent acting, unique storytelling and child actors that were more than just cute. The cast had an unmistakable chemistry, the show was light and full of love. Instead of the usual, tired female types we so often see in TV land these women were bright, vibrant, intelligent and deeply flawed. Very human. The children were the sort of overachievers that are usually overlooked in sitcom land in favor of slutty, dumb and smart mouthed kids.I am so very sad that this wonderful show was not given a chance to grow just because some people could not get past the title. But I am grateful we had it for the time we did. "Lice and Beary White" and "Twas the Night before Christmas, or Twas It?" were two of the funniest sitcom episodes I have ever seen in my life. I only hope that they will finally put it all on DVD.

Kate (Malin Akerman) is a former party girl who has married Pete Harrison (Bradley Whitford). He has two kids (Bailee Madison, Ryan Lee) with his hard nosed surgeon first wife Diane (Marcia Gay Harden). He has an adopted son Bert (Albert Tsai) with flaky second wife Jackie (Michaela Watkins). And Kate's party friend Meg (Natalie Morales) keeps dropping by.It's a really busy modern family that has misadventures together. She grows to be a better person and they grow to be a closer family. Blah. Blah. Blah. Malin Akerman is a hot woman with some comedic skills. She's better than most and is able to maintain likability throughout. Everybody is doing a good job, and it's a functional family sitcom. I wouldn't call it anything outstanding. It got canceled after its first year run of 22 episodes.
