Might have to give this a shot then, Cleveland Show has been pretty damn great lately.

I wish it hadn't been so terrible

It wasn't great but it had a few good moments and I'm a big fan of H. Jon Benjamin so I'll give it some time. I really didn't like the wife's voice. I knew it wasn't him but it reminded me of Andy Kindler's nasally whine.

I'd currently rank The Cleveland show > Family Guy > American Dad.

I didn't really care for the pilot of this, but Ill give it one more chance.

One and done. Bob had a few humorous moments, but nothing I would consider a "laugh," and the wife and kids were painfully not funny and actually more annoying than anything. I actually dozed off for the last 5 minutes or so, but didn't bother rewinding when I woke up.

It made me miss Archer. I hope that show comes back. Kind of weird the guy does the exact same voice for both characters.

Archer's back later this month.

Spectacularly unfunny.

Season 2 starts in two weeks.

I enjoyed this. I'll watch some more but it could get boring.

Tina's autistic.
She's not autistic.
Watch this. Tina, how many toothpicks?
A hundred?
A hundred? No, there's three.
*adds one*
How many now?
Three.
No, four. You're the worst kind of autistic. You can't count.

I like H Jon Benjamin, Kristen Schaal, and Eugene but the wife and older daughter are so annoying that I won't be watching again.

Yeah, Bob (H. Jon Benjamin), the son (Eugene Mirman), and youngest daughter (Kristen Schaal) were all pretty funny to me. Had a lot of great lines and some good voice acting to boot.

The mom was sort of annoying and the oldest daughter was just meh. If anything, the older daughter seems as though she'll be relatively background and works well when the other characters are mocking her. The whole toothpick bit was hilarious.

I like the "crudeness" of the animation, but I also really like the way the similar style is used in Dr. Katz and Home Movies.

Overall, I don't think this will last long. Seems like something better suited for Comedy Central or Adult Swim, no smack dab in the middle of FOX's Animation Domination block. I'll be tuning in though until the end, I found it consistently funny, especially the three characters mentioned above.

I am shocked at all the negative reaction.

Me too. I found it genuinely funny with only a few misses.

I too really liked it, the humor is very much in line with Home Movies and the pace is probably what's maybe throwing people off? It's more subtle than Family Guy and that ilk (which is a weird thing to say about a show who's major plot point was cannibalism)

10 minutes is all I could last ... no go for me.

Got a chance to watch this on Hulu last night...mixed bag for me but I will watch it another week or two

This show cracked me up. Loved it. I'm a big fan of deadpan humour.

Same here. Looks like it has potential, but they didn't get off to a great start.

I'd have enjoyed the show more if it was just Bob, his son and the younger daughter. The mom and the older daughter just don't seem like good characters.

so cleveland show has gotten decent?
maybe I'll give it another try

Yeah, me too. I thought it was funny. I'm in.

I could see many of these jokes getting tired, but I too found myself laughing throughout the first episode.

My favorite bit: Child Molester -- the burger topped with the lollipop

I thought this was painfully unfunny. I doubt I'll give it a second shot. Glad some others enjoyed it though.

To the people who didn't like it/didn't find it funny, have you seen Home Movies or Dr. Katz and were/are you fans of those shows?

yes. often it's better than FG, if you can believe that. it's sort of started out similarly to American Dad. Slow first season, but now that they have some idea of what they want to do with the characters, it's been better.
