Wow! How bad was this?!

Just finished watching this and I predict that this show will be one of the first cancelled this season.

The only person who can act is Lucy Punch but she's not in the show long enough to warrant watching it.

I can't stand the two who play the brother and sister and the 8 year old who plays the 5 year old reminds me of Stewie from The Family Guy.

I concur. The acting was awful

I really like it! I think it's charming and makes me laugh!

I completely disagree! I love this show, it's become one of my favorites. I can't see it being canceled.

Agreed. I think it is a funny show. And many critics concurred.

Right, but just because "Ben and Kate" happens to be the best new show of this season and last put together, that still isn't saying much because it doesn't make much sense.

hmmm What is up with that Australian woman? She doesn't have the right motivation for any scene but just ruins the train of thought for the others, assuming they have a train of thought to begin with. Kate is another bad actress, and that child seems totally annoying, as most child actresses can get.

What is up with the Black guy, too? His emotions also do not fit with the script, assuming that there is a script for this terrible program, which still happens to be the best of another horrid season.

But the only reason to watch has to be for Nat Faxon because who could take your eyes off of that sizzling hot actor? Cover your ears when the actresses come on, and at least the Black guy has a nice voice, as does Ben.

Then that steaming hot Nat is by far the only reason to mark your calendar for whatever time this horrid program comes on, right?

Mellow Salutations!

Your a moron also! She is British not Australian. Two completely different countries and sounding accents.

As for the black guy, he is there so they have a mixed race cast! He is the token black person

As we grow we learn, i have learned that if you don't like me grow up or ignore me.

It's funny, Lucy & Echo are hilarious.

It's because of people like you that all the reality tv muck/new girl/random horrible popular shows (99% of what's on) gets too many seasons, yet funny shows like this get cancelled.

I concur.

A quirky, funny show like this gets canceled and the other crap keeps getting renewed.

I am bummed out big time.

Wow! How bad was this?!

Isn't it more a question of how!? stupid!? are!? YOU!!?!

This show was great fun to watch and should have had at least 3 seasons. How bad was Friends, that should have been cancelled after the pilot and it ran for 10 years or something awfull like that.
