Quotes:

Adam Larson: [Marilyn and Kasey are in the drive-thru of Dougals] May I take your order please?
Marilyn Larson: Yes, I'd like one Double Dougal, two half Dougals, one with cheese. A double cheeseburger special meal with a diet cola. Two regular fries, an apple pie, two small colas, and chocolate shake.
Adam Larson: May I take your order please?

Adam Larson: Would you like something to drink with that?

Usual pap

A forgettable series, based upon the lives of two 'moms'. They have obnoxious kids, caring yet insensitive husbands, and are supposed to be funny. Little is memorable in this show, and I was surprised to see it last beyond 1 season. Some sit-coms have still-born ideas - this was one of them.
