Has anyone here seen this show or watch it?


I just started watching it on Netflix and I find the show to be funny. It looks so implausible but I think that was the point because it's meant to be funny.

I LOVE Martha Plimpton. She is completely mad.

I love this show. The episode where they get their GED is an absolute riot!

I think my favourite episode would be that with "goth" Jimmy.

I started watching this show on Netflix and just love it. The characters are so loveably quirky and their methods of problem solving crack me up, but they talk about real issues in a way that is hilarious because it has some truth in it. :) It is also funny the way they present the characters flaws, I think I relate to that because it is like a real family where everyone has issues. hehe
