    Loved it

    Loved the evolution of this season. Yes first there was the laugh track but after they start developing the characters it falls away. So much you could do with that series....like every season is titled "something something whatever" with a different cast and story every season or a thing like "you may kiss the bride and whatever" and it's a continuous story about the family. Anyways I really enjoyed it

    Improves with the episodes

    Honestly, the first episode is very stiff, and the acting is forced, but as the show moved along, it got better. By the last few episodes, I thought the characters came across much more believable.

    It was good holiday fun

    A little silly? Maybe. But as I watched, it seems true to family's that manage to stay tightknit, especially when they are gathered for Christmas season. Thanks.

    Watch past the 1st ep

    Give it a chance. It's great to get in the holiday spirit.

    If you like the Standard christmas movies you must see this show :)

    Gets better as it goes on

    Give it a chance. The first couple episodes are just kinda blah....but the rest of the season delivers more laughs and holiday cheer. Great cast! I love the concept of a Christmas sitcom. Hope to see another season next Christmas! Totally put me in the holiday spirit and reminds us all of the true gift of Christmas is our family.
