Sitcom about the dysfunctional lives of a newly married couple and the children each of them bring from a previous relationship.
This is a great show which cleverly explores the modern family; step parents and step-children. The Mum clearly loves all her children ('step' or not) and will go to any lengths to protect them, often leading to her downfall. Her ritual humiliation, often in front of the neighbours - who define the word, smug - is frequent and very funny. The whole cast is great, but I'd particularly single out Patrick Nolan (Ted) as a joy to watch - great timing and a real natural in front of the camera.
Life of Riley is funny, warm and charming and is a pleasure to watch with the whole family. Everyone from my Grandma to my eight year old nephew loves this show.
