Not only does this show have hotties, it has one of my favorite actors, Kevin Corrigan and it is hillarious. I was wondering why more people didn't watch it? Oh well, their loss

The mom in the show was also in Mystery Alaska. She was the lady who hit the guy in the head with the shovel.



The daughter is a hottie too

I can never decide whether the mom or the daughter gives me hot more.

Also, the dad was a vamp in Blade, and the grandpa was in Office Space as the guy who made the Jump to Conclusions mat.

Also, I believe Eddie was in Slums of Beverly Hills, the guy who feels up the girl in the laundry room.

Kevin Corrigan has been in just about every indie movie that's been released since 1991, I think there's some law about that somewhere.

The show has a great cast, and they work well together. I think it's a pretty funny show, and it's easy to watch.

Personally I think the grandpa is the hottie.

But then, being a bear, that's not so unusual.

I want to throw in my sentiment that I really enjoy this show. Particularly the way they start at the end and tell the story in flashbacks -- you see the results of their antics first, and it's funny seeing how everything came to pass.

Yes, both females in the family give the hot. It's a little lecherous of me, but when they show the daughter in her school girl outfit -- oh my, my.

Anyway. Great show. Makes me laugh every time.

I am gonna have to agree with renaldow this cast works very well together and the brother who lives there is real funny. I really need to watch this show more does it usuall come on at 8:30 et becuase if it does I can get a season pass for it, because I don't record according to Jim and although I like that show I enjoy Grounded For Life more.

The Dad is the old Taxi driver from the MTV commercials. I like the show pretty funny.

Good show, but it's not very believable that the homely daughter is such a guy magnet......

I really liked the flashback method as well. Reminds me a little of that Seinfeld episode where they go to India and tell everything in flashbacks. I loved that episode, but my parents hated the "flashback" style. Maybe that's a part of the reason the show doesn't do better.

On a side note, I noticed both Donal Logue (the dad) and his brother on the show were in Steal This Movie!. I wonder if that's where they met.

On the whole this show makes me leaugh, and there's only a few select shows I'd place above it that I watch (Simpsons, Alias, Family Guy, maybe 1 or 2 others)

Actually I'd said the opposite is true. I've seen most of the episodes of this and she's usually having guy trouble. It wasn't until recently that they have the neighbor and the drummer interested in here. It used to be she'd whine no one was interested in her.

I like it, but it's a schedule conflict with other shows
the mom and daughter were good casting choices, they look like they really could be mother and daughter

I agree. Grandpa is hot.

Did anyone else notice that the whole cast has gotten fatter since last season?

Usually a sign that a show is doing well.
