This remains one of my all time favorite sitcoms and for good reason. Each character is well done.
Bill is a chubby, lazy dad, similar to Homer Simpson, but not that lazy and was even trying to prove he could do stuff in one episode.
Judy has to be the funniest sitcom mom ever, sometimes going against Bill's schemes but then joins in and acts like she's still in high school, breaking the responsible mom formula found in most sitcoms.
Brian, is the most responsible member of the household, which often makes him the joke of the family, yet both Bill and Judy have admitted they would depend on Brian's success.
Lauren is the middle child of the family, suffering teenage drama, yet also showing almost zero effort in high school studies.
Tina, the youngest, is the second smartest of the children and often has better schemes and is considered quite creepy.
I love how Bill makes fun of Linda's love life.
I loved this sitcom so much that during its ABC Family run, I would get extremely angry when ABC Family would run a marathon of one of its dramas especially considering the fact that I'm not a big fan of dramas. I miss this show.moreless
