Kinda Weak, and its on the wrong network...

I'm not crazy about "Fatherhood", but I don't think its terrible. Its just that its more for the Nickelodeon crowd (Who's more into cartoons) than the Nick-At-Nite audience. (Who's into more classic TV, although with the current state of the network, with some exceptions- that might not be true). I agree with Jabef, the animation is pretty ugly. It looks like they were trying to give it an old fashioned feel, but it just looks odd. The show itself is pretty thin on laughs and I actually got bored through most of it. I like Bill Cosby and I think he's a funny and talented guy, but this show isn't his best. This is basically a less funny, animated version of the Cosby Show.

Also if its based on Bill Cosby's book, Why not make him the voice of the main character, Dr. Bindlebeep?
