OK so I usually don't go for the rude crude and dirty humor like this show is however i was pleasantly surprised here its a good comedy ABOUT FAMILY NOT FOR FAMILY its filthy to the core and if u are easily offended stay far far away from this show but I think its hilarious so far I love the kids and the parents alike none of them are really role model citizens but they all have their own special thing about them that u love the daughters hilarious better than u attitude the sons weirdness the moms hornyness the dads sweet attempts it all works together perfectly and it all fits great tbs knows a little about comedy and this proved it ps love full fruntle with Sam bee as well but I say if u are mature enough to take some sexual jokes and swearing I say give it a shot u will at least laugh once guaranteed
The first two seasons are great, the third season is ok and the last season is pretty horrible. Overall a nice comedy that will make you laugh many times even though you might have trouble following the story that jumps all over the place.
The chemistry between Natalie Zea and Jason Jones is excellent even though kids are a bit annoying.
Also a lot of nice scenery between seasons as our characters travel to places like Florida, Cuba, Russia and Alaska throughout the episodes. Towards the end the story gets too weird but it's still funny and still gets the job done in terms of making you laugh.

I ran across this title over the internet and thought it was a movie. I then saw it was a TBS original and had second thoughts about watching it. (I live outside the US and don't have TBS.) I reluctantly watched the pilot episode and trust me when I tell you this, if you have any sense of humor, you will love this show.
One critic who is Russian absolutely murdered this show. It just goes to show how some people watch TV/MOVIES and think that everything should be true to life. It's said that this story is based on the real life couple's own experience with family vacations. That makes it even better.
This is reminiscent of the VACATION movies, but I think it has a much better feel to it. The one liners are incredible! You'll have to watch it twice to catch everything, but it is SO worth it.
This is my first review because I feel it's completely merited. From the looks of it, it may have been scheduled for at least 2 seasons. I think this has a chance to go for at minimum 3. But, we should wait to see how the first season turns out. The promos look promising.
GIVE THIS SERIES A CHANCE, it's quite the laugh. I've watched the pilot 3 times and keep laughing.
The children in the series are spectacular.
I hope everyone jumps on board for this ride. So far, I give it two enthusiastic thumbs up. haha 8/10

Obviously this show is NOT for everybody, and the humor IS adult in nature ( or indoors ) THAT'S WHY IT'S ON LATE! This show has me constantly laughing out loud, I applaud the writers, actors, and TBS for putting on such a fantastic, funny program! I NOW look forward to the former Death Valley that was Monday Night programming. If you're easily offended, and weekly there will be something that will offend SOMEBODY, DON'T WATCH, CHANGE THE DAMN CHANNEL! If this program has one chink in the armor ( yes I plagiarized that from the show ) it's only half an hour, but half an hour I WOULD NOT TRADE! Looking forward to all the new episodes!
Love this show, well balanced in terms of comedy between physical comedy and wit. The "cinematics" (wrong word probably) and storytelling in general are creative and interesting. Stumbled upon it on Hulu and through season 2
