Abomination...uses vulgarity to be shocking rather than funny...not really appropriate to have a nine year old talking about a "spank bank" not only because it is disturbing but it has no basis in reality of how a nine year old would speak

Saw a lot of commercials for this piece of crap during the Olympics. It looks like a ripoff of Arrested Development and Modern Family but without the humor or heart of either.

Not a huge fan, although it is much better than Go On. I did find last night's New Normal episode amusing in its disdain for the red heads.

The gay couple in Modern Family seem like two normal guys that happen to be Gay. They are not patronized like most shows do with anybody gay. This new show looks like it was hit with the dumb stick. It's basically a Walmart version of Modern Family.

The red is BS. Kids will repeat any stupid shit they hear. Now will the 9 year old understand it? Probably not.

It's a Ryan Murphy production, so just like Glee, of course it treats homosexuality with all the humanity and nuance of a sledgehammer with a dildo on the end.
