    Funny funny show

    Heard it's csncelked so had to give my rating as a farewell gift to the show..... First of all it's funny. Starts pretty good but gets much much stronger in season 3. Second the cast is amazing. All five are great. Great timing, great performances. They seem totally exaggerated but in a believable way. Who doesn't know a Bonny? A Ben? A Riley? Who doesn't want to be friends with a tucker? Or marry a Danny... haha! All in all a great surprise I was expecting it to be kinda meh but it was a whaaaa?!!

    Anticipating the Rest of the Season

    In a world that is being overrun by reality TV, I really enjoyed this show. I saw a couple of billboards about it but didn't make it a point to watch but I just watched it On Demand about fifteen minutes ago and found it very entertaining. While it wasn't hysterically funny it had parts that I giggled and I'm certain that as the season progresses, the jokes will get funnier. I grew up when TGIF was popular. Shows like "Family Matters", "Sabrina, The Teenage Witch", "Step By Step", "Full House", and others shows came on. It was a great family time for my parents and my brother and I'm certain this is a great show for family.

    I read a review saying that this show wasn't "realistic" but when it comes to sitcoms like this they're not supposed to be 100% realistic, they're supposed to entertain. The point is to take be inspired by realistic events and exaggerate them for TV's sake. I, personally, am happy that shows like are returning to TV. We need these family sitcoms to invade our TV screens once again so that we can have evenings, like in the past, to watch back to back shows that have values, yet make us laugh.

    I say, save the "realistic" film and TV for those the drastically deep people trying to win Oscars. This is a great family show, with good actors who have great chemistry on screen. They were some elements that were introduced in the pilot that have me intrigued for more to come. Watch this show. You'll enjoy it!

    Show with an interesting role reversal premise

    Usually, the women are the ones who get stuck with raising the kids when there's an unexpected pregnancy. In this case, it's a little like Three Men and a Baby made into a TV series, except the three men in this case are much younger.

    As a series, I liked how the characters are allowed to develop, as much as can be developed for a sitcom. There are the usual young male antics - trying to impress dates, shameless flirting, hooking up left and right, etc. But there are also the parts where young daddy Ben fights for his daughter, makes sacrifices for her, pines after Chelsea, parts which make him more than a two-dimensional token dad.

    The other characters also make it interesting: lovable best friend room- mate Tucker, simple-minded hockey player brother Danny, loud-mouthed mother Bonnie, and sweet intelligent Riley, the object of many men's affection.

    The acting is good for a show that does not depend usually heavily on physical comedy. Most of the time, each episode's main plot is interesting enough on its own.

    I hope this show continues its good run till Three Men and a Baby becomes Three Men and a Lady on TV.

    sweet

    When I saw this show advertised on TV I immediately set a series record, knowing that it would be worth watching. When my 6-year-old Sat down and put the pilot on we watched it together. She loved it and so did I because It was so full of heart! You have Ben and his best friend/roommate, Tucker. Then, there is Ben's big bother Danny and their childhood neighbour Riley. She used to have the unfortunate nickname "fat-pants" but has since lost all the weight and is now in law school. Also, she is quietly in love with Ben, and Danny calls her out on It. But, the sad thing is Danny secretly has a thing for her so that poses a future problem. When Ben's ex leaves their 3 month old baby girl, Emma, on his doorstep with a folder that says she is giving the baby up for adoption and needs him to sign off, he has to make a difficult hard life decision. Will he or won't he keep the baby? Um, of course he will keep the baby! This show Is sweet and I can't wait to see what happens.

    Comfort food

    I'm just gonna go right out and say it. This show is not groundbreaking, it is not innovative, it is not spectacular. This is a typical sitcom formula, so if you're looking for something thought-provoking look elsewhere. That being said, I really enjoy this show for what it is. I find myself laughing out loud over the cheesiest jokes and one liners that I'd easily dismiss in any other sitcom. It just somehow works in its own way. Every character is unique to the other, and while the acting isn't oscar worthy, it's enough to keep you invested. If you're looking for something to watch on a Sunday in your PJ's or just something to put on to kill some time with a few laughs, look no further. This is the epitome of comfort tv.
