User Reviews

Great Show! Period!!!

Watched every episode Religiously. Yes I'm a little biased, being a Newf',oops Newfoundlander! Any way Other than the premiere, the show has lived up to expectations & then some. I do not miss the show & love all the characters. I've read some of the Negative reviews and disagree with the comments: Great show if you're from the rock. 'Great Show' period! I find it pretty cool how Father & Son connect with each other. Lynda Boyd!!! Deadly!!! Probably the only part I don't like is less of His ex. I think she really adds to the messed up life, relationship problems of Jake. In comparison to other shows on the tely... Holds its own.
