I believe that working as a creator for TV shows is such a very easy job sometimes. Just look at this one to understand the picture. I think pitching its idea went exactly like this:
"Let's fill the air with anything. But what could be that 'anything'? Ok, the audience loved (Seinfeld), it was a great sitcom about bunch of people who don't try to learn from their own mistakes, so let's make them a family with some of the gross-out taste of (Malcolm in the Middle). And we've had a lot of shows about a middle class family's dairy, so what about a family with a little bit poorness. Then let's make them some losers. And for something totally different, let's use a strange technique for the narration; it's the flashbacks style to present the comedy. And as a family show, it'll be about family's moralities and stuff, however with sexuality and dirtiness. YEAH, let the mature stuff be written by adolescents this time, to be adolescent show that alleges being mature in the same time! So how about the casting? Hey, put anyone, as when the audience hears the recorded laughing voices, they'll gonna crack all over anyway! They desperately need a pastime not a serious anything!!".
So the result was that trash sitcom. It's not well grounded. It's hastily grounded, as they were unserious, but with making their show, NOT through it. Let alone that uncle; OHH he is so bad, not the character, but I mean the character of its actor. Actually (Kevin Corrigan) has no idea about acting, so not to mention acting a comedy! He is so pathetic with that totally indifferent performance, being capable of destroying any possible nice situation or even good line. You would feel it too with (Griffin Frazen), and that unfunny grandfather (Richard Riehle), maybe it was the direction that left everybody do whatever they want, and to tell you the truth.. What they wanted turned out to be so silly thing!
Despite some comic efforts from (Donal Logue), I felt that there is nothing here to entertain or to watch. Even the opening credits were awful!
