Top Class Comedy, 26 December 2004
Author: paulproud from United Kingdom

brilliant written scripts, excellent storey lines and cast. This brilliant sitcom about a father & his family, and his best friend who finds himself obsessing about what goes on. and how his daughter reacts is a class twist to each storey plot. His son who is not so bright but has skills in golf, his father takes control, he also over reacts when his daughter plays football, causing stress for all concerned. His best friend does his best to try and see what he can do, in all the crazy things that Tony gets up to. each episode has a great storey line and keeps you laughing. Tony played by Jason Alexander, takes the role to a great level of comedy acting.
