    Alicia I love this movie so much
    BlazeLime Strong and Moving!
    Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
    Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
    fortress111 Shatner pulls another one out of his... @$$. Of course with the executive producers from Will & Grace, things can only be first class. Well... mostly. The funny lines of Shatner and his own comedy talents make up for the short falling of the rest of the show. Ideally, nothing is ever perfect. (In a perfect world, William Shatner would not have to buy hair...) Expect lots of star cameos and witty writing. Expect a lot of stepping on political correctness and spanking it's @$$. After all, that's what this series is all about... PC meets Old School. Shatner does not look 79...more like 59... and "Henry" looks to be in his thirties...which he is (31). Therefore, the premise works, unlike "Retired at 35". Sadowski is superior to McClain by far...although we could have hoped for Zach Braff to take the lead role of "Henry". Second string ain't bad...but the snap of a seasoned star like Braff would have helped tremendously to support the wit of the lead "Ed" played by Shatner...brilliantly as usual.The writing is coming along to support the premise and the main characters...but has not yet bloomed into its potential. Bottom line...the best new show of the season on any network. Perhaps the best show on any network... period. Including "Two and a Half Men" and "The Big Bang Theory." My VCR is set. I never miss it.
    Pat B. I've been watching the advertisements for about 4 months, and I decided to record the pilot episode. I watch a recording of The Big Bang Theory, followed by this, and I'm like, WOW! This is really terrible. It's about a 30-year-old man who moves in with his elderly father, who says a bunch of random $#*!, while the dad's other son and his wife stop by from time to time, and it seems like they serve no point to the show whatsoever. Everything about this show was bad, the acting, the writing, the gags, oh yeah, there are no gags. The plot is somewhat overused, and I hope this is the last sitcom based off a twitter account. The account is funny, the show is not. I couldn't even watch half of the pilot episode, I deleted it right away, and I pray that CBS will make the right decision, and cancel this $#*!ty show. If you're going to watch a funny comedy series on Thursday Night at 8:30, then watch 30 Rock. Quite possibly, the worst show of all time since Jersey Shore.
    CaptainCraig Based on the Twitter feed which often contains vulgar language one might right away wonder how or why this is on network TV. The twitter feed isn't always vulgar though, often times the humor is in the raw unabashed truth of the non-PC, non-conformist, slightly behind the times father. While some colorful language might at times make some lines come across funnier its the situations thus far shown,through 4 episodes, that allow the cast to shine.The show started off rocky I'll admit, maybe due to re-shooting for the recast role of Henry. However, each subsequent episode has shown the cast gelling and the show laying down roots to make a truly modest show into a good one.Shatner owns the show. If you enjoyed how Shatner's Denny Crane refused to be bossed around on Boston Legal you'll right away understand Shatner's Ed Goodson on $#*! My Dad Says. You have to try a few helpings of the show but once you do I think you'll like it.
    tacticalguy I found this little comedy engaging and fun. I wasn't sure how William Shatner would pull off comedy when I started the pilot but, I was very satisfied. His timing was perfect. Jonathon Sadowski is very funny as his neurotic, out of touch younger son. Will Sasso is ALWAYS funny to watch. Nicole Sullivan is over the top but, that's why we all love her. I watched the pilot episode and then, begged my girlfriend to watch it with me, again(we have 2 dvrs in my house). She laughed so hard that she said her sides hurt. And this is someone who has never been a fan of William Shatner's. This show is absolutely on our "Must Record Weekly" list. I'm really hoping this show gets picked up for several seasons.
