Great idea poorly planned and executed
18 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
The new concept of only recently independent adult children horning in on an aging parent by surprise to live in the childhood home again to mooch off the parent while sulking is a recent phenomenon the press is labelling the boomerang kid. There is so much current press coverage and so much need to analyze or publicize this new trend that the premise of the show seems quite timely and well focused. The show could very well spin this idea to be a timely and commercial success. What has happened is it is poorly funded single camera meaning the visual is not up to, for example, the show slotted immediately before it on cable - HOT IN CLEVELAND, which may end up among the most successful half hour situation comedies in broadcast history I can't really bond to a single member of the tight ensemble cast or to any of the half hour comic plots which focus away from rather than toward the current news issue. A great opportunity by a forward thinking cable station which is totally wasted.
