    Great Film overall

    A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

    I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

    This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

    I loved tucker!!!!! It was so great and true and funny........i cant believe it was cancelled ..........we never found out if he got the girl! This needs a DVD release now!!!!!!!! Plus it's got Seth green and Alison lohman : so they can use them to sell it!!! Katey Segal was so funny as the evil auntie-she reminded me of my own aunt who i had to stay with sometimes! I just remember how much i loved the episode where it was thanksgiving dinner- and they all went to the resteraunt where tucker's mom worked to see her and then tucker had this big dream sequence where his mom + dad got back together+ it was really hilarious when the auntie pulled the waitress outfit off.........hilarious. Yet another great nickelodeon show that has been buried instead of given a great DVD release-along with Sabrina the teenage witch and Are you afraid of the dark?.....Get them out on DVD now, Nickelodeon!!!!!!

    NBC barely let 3 episodes of Tucker get on the air before they axed it and sent it to the Neilsen graveyard. Which is pretty unfair, since they stuck it on a bad night for TV in general and then expected it to do as well as Malcolm in the Middle. They did this to Freaks and Geeks as well, another cool show about teenagers. Honestly, I don't know what goes through their minds up at NBC. But anyway, I liked the little bit of Tucker that I saw. True, the characters were one-dimensional. True, it tried to be Malcolm, which admitedly is funnier than Tucker. But in its own way I thought it was worth encouraging. Maybe somewhere down the line it would have turned into something really jazzy, but for now all we have is 12 episodes to reflect on. I liked that they made Tucker constantly horny (a thing that many kids can relate to, especially when the guy's got a major jones that he has to hide from others), and Andy Lawrence was cool as the best friend. The two characters that did not work for me was the always evil Aunt and the cousin who was almost too much like the character Reese from Malcolm, in that he was an idiot with about 3 brain cells. They definitely could have been reworked to look more realistic in terms of personality. As it stands, I give Tucker 2.5/4 for trying to make it in an evening of crappy TV that no one watches. I salute thee!

    What were they thinking? I was excited when I learned Katey Sagal would be returning to sitcoms in NBC's "Tucker," but I was horribly disappointed when I finally saw what had happened. First of all, NBC stuck it on what I refer to as "Must-Kill-TV" night. This was paired with the funny tried-and-true-traditional-sitcom "Daddio," (which NBC went out of their way to 86) and the Oliver Platt Drama "Deadline," all of which had nothing in common. And not only did "Tucker"'s makers blatantly rip-off FOX's "Malcolm in the Middle," but they made it far too horny and unlikable. This is one of the few shows that didn't have a single character that you could be sympathetic to, particularly the obnoxious title character. The acting was good, but when all of the characters are evil and obnoxious, what's the point? After three episodes I wasn't at all sorry to see this one go!

    Okay, so this series won't get any points for originality, how many shows today do?! It's a little corny at times and the whole Seth Green thing seems a little wierd, to me, but this is a very funny show.The language and the references to sex (which shouldn't be changed at all) make this a little more than I would expect to see on NBC. Maybe when they cancel it (and they will) the Comedy Channel will pick it up. I just hope someone keeps it going because it is really funny.
