Poor Job, 25 May 2009
2/10
Author: spooot69 from Australia

Sorry folks, but this is, once again, a very bad attempt by Americans to remake brilliant comedies from other countries, and failing miserably. They have done this with a number of shows and it's getting irritating. While this isn't unfunny, the jokes aren't delivered well, with the exception of the father who is simply brilliant at delivering snappy laughs, and it seems to have been re-written for an American specific audience. If you haven't seen or heard of the original series, then you might enjoy this mildly, but otherwise I would recommend getting your hands on the British make. This is a mediocre comedy, with rehashed jokes, taken down a notch in class for a simpler audience. The sad thing is, this is the only version the mainstream audiences of Australia will see, like they did with The Office, Life on Mars and Kath & Kim.
