Annoying Sisters not that fun

[SnoopyStyle · 4/10 · 28 August 2013]

Hope (Faith Ford) is an uptight happily married mom of three in Glen Falls, Ohio. Her tidy world is up-ended by the arrival of her celebrity sister, the giant mess Faith (Kelly Ripa). Faith was a Hollywood diva as a daytime soap opera star until her soap's character was unceremoniously killed off.

Kelly Ripa was annoying, and her character unlikeable. Faith Ford wasn't much better. The constant fighting really made it hard to root for this angry relationship.

It also had on set drama as they fired the oldest daughter played by Nicole Paggi. She was great as the only fun character. For seasons 2 & 3, they replaced her with Megan Fox. Sadly, she may have the looks, but at that stage she couldn't act her way out of a paper sack.

It's what you expect but not from where you expect.

[itsrabbitseason · 4/10 · 1 September 2006]

Kelly Ripa, one of Regis Philbin's second banana's plays Faith, a washed up daytime Soap Star who goes to live with her homemaking sister Hope(Faith Ford from Murphy Brown.) and her husband(Ted McGinley: The Monkey Paw of DOOM for TV.) who detests the dim 30 something actress still desperately pretending to be a teenager and famous when she is ridiculously not to hilarious consequences.

This tired sitcom has been on for three years and is no more complicated than an episode of I love Lucy with out the old world charm. For some reason all the good TV has gone off the air and this cud has found its way into prime time so I got a more than unpleasant look at it last Wednesday night. They were Tom Sawyering a fake death which excused the brutish husband into being extra coarse, telling Kelly Ripa to die for real, which is when I noticed the plot and the characters were from A Street Car Named Desire.

So, yes that guy who killed Happy Days and Love boat(Ted might not have made the head shot, but he gets partial credit for the fall of Sports Night.) is Stanley, and Kelly Ripa is Blanche. I wonder if Kelly's oblivious to playing one of the greatest America female parts, or she's ten times smarter than Regis silently laughing at the inside joke? I'm really curious how Tennessee would have reacted seeing such a freaking cartoon? He was an angry drunk right? Of course the only really serious point to take from all this is that Ted McGinley is walking in Brando's shadow.... OMG! Even compare Ted and Marlon's characters names are bizzarro counterparts of one another!

Charley Shanowski Stanley Kowalski

That's a wonky spoonerism. This is no accident, hell, it's probably always been pitched as a homage and I'm just dim.

the Kelly Rippa character is a monster

[jimakros · 4/10 · 22 December 2022]

This was supposed to be about two sisters ,one who is a conservative mother of three and one who is a wacky but lovable ex-Hollywood actress. The show's characters are mostly cartoonish but where they failed is even in that concept the Kellly Rippa is just a totaly selfish ,totaly unlikable character ,who even though is supposed to have some redeeming qualities she has none,she is just one insuferable bitch who doesnt really care about anyone but herself. She is supposed to care about her sister,but time after time is shown to not really care at all,she just uses her sister and manipulates everything to suit herself. This is too much to be funny,after a few episodes one has had enough of the Kelly Rippa character and you just wish you never see her again.

Great chemistry

[rjc739 · 8 April 2005]

I make time to watch one thing on Fridays and that is Hope and Faith (and I'm a 40 yr old guy). I think it's real funny. The chemistry between Faith and Kelly is perfect. You couldn't find a better partner for Kelly. To add to that you have a third person who fits right in with the two: Ted. He is also great. I like him better now than I did 20 years ago. Kelly is funny as hell. I think she's one of the funniest women in TV today. Her character is perfect for her and she knows how to whine and complain and showoff like no one. Her timing is great. She worked for Charlie in his dentist's office and she was a scream! She botched everything and pursued one of the younger patient's father (while the patient had a mold stuck in his mouth!). Ha! The show started off without many sexual innuendos which was a real nice change but this season the shows are full of them and I think that's kind of a shame. It's even funnier that they have brought in Kelly's husband and Regis and jokes are made about their real-life relationships. Show is way better than Bonnie Hunt's show which went off the air (although I watched that, too, and I think Bonnie and their crew were real talented). I think it is the funniest show on Friday nights. Oh, the writing is great! Please don't go off the air!

I Have actually warmed up to this show.

[Raflet60 · 7/10 · 4 May 2010]

I discovered this show in the last three months when I was channel surfing during the morning. I watched for a few minutes and actually laughed at some of the jokes. As I kept coming across this show I noticed I was beginning to like what I saw. I eventually started to watch the show and although there are some rough spots and weak writing at times, I realized that Kelly Ripa has very good comedic timing and great expressions. She and Faith Ford make a really funny team. I will admit that I normally wouldn't be into a show like this because I always considered shows like "The Dick Van Dyke Show" or "M*A*S*H" to be more of my liking with great writing and great acting. Again, with this show I'm attracted to the chemistry of the two leads and I sympathize with the husband who hates his sister-in-law. It's definitely not a great show and Kelly Ripa's character can be downright mean and not a very nice person but she pulls it off beautifully and there are some really funny lines. I really wish it had lasted more than three seasons. I'll give it a 7 out of 10 because of Kelly Ripa's acting, she should definitely do another sitcom.

This degenerates American comedy

[hejsamester · 1/10 · 23 May 2009]

Writing and acting of this quality belongs inside Pandora's box. The jokes are as bad and clean as on Full House, and the setup for them is so fake it hurts watching. People might like the goofy Kelly Ripa as Faith Fairchild character, but honestly, it hurts to watch middle aged women act like stupid children in order to make them seem funny. Her sister, the responsible one, isn't any better. She exemplifies the type of woman, who've never realized who she is, and never achieved any of her dreams expect the one of a house, a husband and some children. What a sad example of role models.

Parring up a stupid and a boring person doesn't really make great comedy - it's just an easy way out for a lot of boring morales without impact and for a bit of lazy attempts at slapstick comedy. All seen before a long time ago.

America; you've brought some good comedy to the world, but when you make things like this, you really start lacking behind the European countries. Please don't export more of this, just keep it to yourselves.

No No NO!

[chumpsteak · 1/10 · 1 August 2008]

I feel slightly irked that I have to give it 1 star because it deserves 0.

Over 50 episodes of entirely unfunny junk. Some say that it improves after the 1st series, so I gave it a chance. It doesn't improve. It gets worse. It's hard to expect much from a series called 'Hope & Faith' where the lead characters are called... you guessed it, Hope and Faith. Ha Ha Ha ughhhh!!! That gag has been a tired cliché for at least 50 years but it's actually the funniest gag the writers have managed to write / copy. Oh yes. Don't expect any originality whatsoever here. Don't expect any spark or verve from the dead eyed, creosote-faced, bleached teethed, dyed haired (To hide the grey I presume) actors either. Manic energy cannot hide you're lack of talent ladies. Actually, most of the cast wander around with a dazed look on their varnished faces. I can read their minds... I'm picking something up now.... they're thinking "Why has this show been re-commissioned? I can't believe I'm getting paid for this putrid garbage. My career has hit rock bottom. I'll just keep grinning & hope the audience doesn't notice."

Don't watch it under any circumstance. Those 'Live Surgery' TV shows are funnier than this. Slicing the tip of my finger off was funnier than this. Even 'Joey' is a funnier show & I NEVER thought I'd say that.

Hope and Faith is fantastic

[Haroonrajah238 · 10/10 · 21 April 2006]

In my eyes, Hope and Faith is great, and whatever anyone else says i'll always be a viewer. Someone else wrote about the kids being a big spoiler in Hope and Faith; Sydney looks too old, first of all she doesn't, she's just got older and matured( the character of Sydney) and secondly, Who Cares? for gods sake Hope and Faith are the stars of the show the ones that make everyone laugh, who the hell cares about the kids?.

Hope and Faith is a funny, light hearted comedy, and Faith Fairfield and Kelly Ripa are hilarious, especially Kelly Ripa!. Its Fantastic and i hope it continues for a long time, because its one of the few actually funny T.V shows around, since the demise of friends. Long Live Hope and Faith

Awful

[frankfennessey · 1/10 · 21 February 2023]

The American half hour situation comedy has been around since the very beginning of television. Those shows run from the very highest pinnacle of show business to the absolute dregs. This show was near the very bottom in quality, in all aspects but in particular for the worst acting I've ever seen. Kelly Ripa is not actress, she is a television personality. Her attempt at acting is so painful, I found myself embarrassed for her. Her lines are delivered so awkwardly and painfully it makes you wonder how she wound up with any type of show business career. She literally moves her mouth mimicking the other actors lines as she waits to spit out her line. Embarrassing for everyone else associated with this turkey, including the absolutely wonderful Faith Ford of Bob Newhart fame.

I laughed so hard

[KingOfThemAll · 10/10 · 11 June 2021]

Yes this show is funny. True the writing and the jokes can be a little meh but overall, the idea, the cast and the situations... Hilarious.

TGIF is back and with "Hope & Faith" it can be just as stupid as ever

[liquidcelluloid-1 · 14 May 2004]

Network: ABC; Genre: Sitcom; Average Content Rating: TV-PG; Classification: Contemporary (star range: 1 - 4);

Season Reviewed: Season 1+

ABC's TGIF line-up is back and if this show is any indication, it's exactly as we remember it. 'Hope & Faith' is a quintessential "stupid sitcom" with simple, recycled plots, bubble-headed characters and duh-duh humor that brazenly recalls the 'Full House'/'Family Matters' era. And I actually rooted for ABC to bring this idea back- I would much rather deal with this than another reality show.

I understand the niche for this type of simple show. It's Friday night, the kids are excited over the weekend and it's time to just kick back and watch some escapism. So it goes almost without saying that 'Hope' is mind-numbing, but it manages to be even worse than those low expectations. The stories barely make sense from minute to minute and every joke has a blinking neon sign hanging around it. It's also -surprisingly - toward the crude side of generic as we can see the lowered bar of TV standards has even infiltrated TGIF. The show is almost epically stupid from the directing and writing down to the lighting and visceral look. Where we aren't just not laughing, we feel embarrassed for the actors.

The actor I don't feel embarrassed for is Kelly Ripa. Ripa is a gorgeous girl and on 'Hope and Faith' we certainly get to see her with great hair and in a vast wardrobe of attractive outfits. But the series is clearly designed for those who can't get enough of her acting stupid on 'Live with Regis and Kelly' in the morning and want to see her acting stupid in the evening as well. And Ripa hams it up big time here. Meanwhile, we get the sense that everyone else in the cast is trying to tell us they know they can do better. Poor Faith Ford (so good playing a naive ditz on 'Murphy Brown' and now saddled as Ripa's straight man) looks like she's just barely trying to keep up with Ripa in the embarrass-yourself department. Jump the Shark patron saint Ted McGinley is probably the best thing about this show. Most of the time we can find McGinley happily off to the side, away from the blast, filling reactionary shots with a look of amazement at whatever chicanery is going on between the sisters. Elsewhere we find the stock obnoxious kids, also in the periphery as to not divert any power from the gleaming spotlight on Ripa.

This whole affair is the type of obnoxious, bottom-of-the-barrel awfulness that give sitcoms a bad name. It's purpose is to be an escape, but it just might give you a migraine. This was all foretold from the beginning where the show must have set a land-speed record to the bottom by resorting to a food fight in the first episode. A food fight. Of all the sitcom clichés that need to be put a moratorium on, I'd trade them all just to get food fights off the air for good.

Hope and Faith is one of the funniest comedy shows ever!

[mystypants · 10/10 · 11 July 2006]

I am surprised to find that many people on here have stated that Hope and Faith is a poorly produced show and won't pass season 1. Well with no surprise at all it has 3 seasons currently and I am amazed at each episode.

The actors behind the characters are just all so great! Kelly and Faith work really well together and the idea of two sisters with completely different ambitions, personalities and ideas clashing is so hiarious - it's an addictive show with the spontaneous and random plots which arise.

There is not an episode when I don't roll around on the floor (not literally of course) laughing in stitches through Kelly's (Faith) ditzy blonde pure attitude and over the top acting and reactions.

Congratulations to the actors, writers, producers, everyone involved! You have such a great show running - It will be a sad, sad day when Hope and Faith gets cancelled.

The best sitcom ever

[paulsayer12 · 10/10 · 9 July 2007]

Wonderful writing. Superb direction. Exquisite acting. This show has everything you could need in comedy. Shame on ABC for cancelling the show and shame on British channels for not buying it. But, maybe it was better to cancel it. Dharma and Greg started off fine and was good for three seasons but then it took a nose dive and got boring. Maybe it's better that Hope and Faith finished on a high, before it got tired and predictable. At least it has created both people who love the show and people who hate it. And look at the favourite shows of the people who hate it. Most of them don't even come close to being funny. Great acting, including guest stars like Jenny McCarthy. This will be around when most sitcoms have long been forgotten.

Ghastly...

[NickSoapdish · 5 August 2005]

Ugh, Hope and Faith. Kelly Ripa certainly is funny on Live with Regis and Kelly when she's just being herself, but when it comes to this honker of a sitcom, Kelly Ripa can't do scripted comedy to save her life.I have seen several episodes of Hope and Faith, and honestly, it just isn't funny, the characters are annoying; Faith (Ripa) is especially grating, and the jokes just don't work. The youngest daughter is probably the only character on this show more obnoxious than Faith (Ripa). (Although, the WifeSwap parody and the episode with the soap actors were mildly amusing).Personally, I don't like this show. But Overall, this show just isn't fun to watch, it just makes you cringe when you realize how bad it is. Kelly Ripa should just stick to doing daytime TV; daytime TV is where she has always shown her true talent.

An absolute ABC classic!

[Catherine_Grace_Zeh · 8/10 · 15 July 2006]

"HOPE & FAITH," in my opinion, is an absolute ABC classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoy it. There are many episodes that I enjoyed. One of them was where Hope (Kelly Ripa) got busted with Charlie (Ted McGinley). If you want to know why, you'll have to have seen it for yourself. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, even though new episodes can currently be seen, I strongly recommend you catch it just in case it goes off the air for good.

Love this show

[markjack2004 · 10/10 · 20 July 2006]

I love Hope and Faith so much. I think it is a brilliant show, every time i watch the episodes i laugh, how ever many times i have seen them before. I also have my own website www.hopeandfaith06.co.uk Please visit it. It gets better every season. I loved the wife swap episodes, never seen anything like that on any other show, very original and very well done. I have only seen a few episodes from season 3 but the ones i have seen are just brilliant. I know they do make some mistakes such as seeing the back of sinks and cookers which you wouldn't normally see but who cares when the show is so good. I hope they keep making more seasons and do not just stop with season 3. I keep trying to email them but never get a reply. Has anyone else got a reply from them. My email is [e-mail]. Please email me.

terrible pilot, great following episodes

[moviesfan11 · 16 October 2003]

The pilot for this show was terrible. The jokes were tired, and predictable. None of it had any logical things in it. And the acting was poor. But in the following episodes, the are just great. The jokes are unpredictable. funny, and the acting has improved so much. The writing is getting a lot better, also. For those of you who thought the pilot was bad, give the new ones a chance. They are really good!

Hope & Faith: 4/5

TV rating: TV-PG D. There ae some sexual references, but not to bad for little kids. They won't get any of the jokes, though.

Funniest Show

[MorphFox · 10/10 · 27 December 2006]

This show is the funniest that I have seen in awhile. I wish they would bring it back. They really need to release them on D.V.D. Watching this show, I laugh my head off sometimes. They did a really good job on this one and they need to bring it back. Kelly and Faith really make a good team. They are really funny together. Me and my family wish they would bring them back on the air. Most of you guys are like this guy is stupid. That's your thoughts. If you don't like what I put on here, I don't really care.

The Best Sitcom Ever!

[starshollow-762-188047 · 10/10 · 11 August 2013]

I gave this show 10 stars out of 10, because I think it's the best comedy show ever made, out of all, still, up until this moment, in 2013. Please, watch this show. Every episode is funny and fresh, and unpredictable... and the actors are amazing! All of them: Kelly Ripa, who played Faith, Faith Ford, who played Hope, Ted McGinley as Charlie, and the three kids- Nicole Paggi, later Megan Fox, in the role of Sydney, Macey Cruthird as Hailey, and Paulie Littowsky as Justin.

The writers, did a great job: the humor is deep, the jokes are subtle, even sophisticated, surprisingly not cheap or vulgar, and sometimes, very true. The characters all have their own personalities, the storyline is great, and realistic, especially in the first two seasons. The third season is, unfortunately, not as funny and true as the first two.

Hope and Faith are two Lovable characters, you can't help but understand them and their problems and concerns. Kelly and Faith have a great chemistry together, it almost seems like they are sisters in real life. The jokes and all the humorous situations, work out very well... And this show is not only a light- hearted comedy, it is also a life situation show, that can also teach you and your family, some pretty important things about life, friendship, family: how important is to be noble as a person, how to be happy and stay yourself, even if people around you judge you all the time. Learn to accept the people you love the way they are...some real- life values, like love, respect, generosity... " I'll always be there for you". Not only is this show funny, but it actually also makes you care for the characters and their life, their relationship between each other. So, they will always be there and help each other, in whatever situation, and even when they fight with each other, their friendship is unbreakable. And all the jokes are Trenchant and Fluid, believe me, when you watch Hope and Faith, you just can't stop laughing! So, please don't deprive yourself from this joyful, delightful experience, go and watch "Hope and Faith", the best sitcom ever made!

I think this show really deserved a lot more seasons, compared to the cold, crude humored Two and a Half Men, which is on its tenth season now by the way, this show is incomparably better. And another occasion for us to feel mad at ABC...

The classic so bad it's good sitcom.

[BlackJack_B · 27 February 2004]

The American Broadcasting Company, the biggest network mess in the U.S., brings us arguably one of the worst sit-coms ever conceived in Hope And Faith. H&F stars Kelly Ripa as Faith Fairfield, a washed up soap opera actress who moves in with her sister's family because she has no money left (she must have spent it all on her clothes). Ex-Murphy Brown star Faith Ford plays her sister Hope and Ted McGinley plays Hope's husband.

This show relies on 50 years of classic situation comedy devices. Unlike some shows that try to bring in something original on occasion, H&F plays it safe with hackneyed plots that have been used for decades. The show has some brutal acting (Ripa is a gorgeous woman but she has a very grating voice), awful scripts, and poor direction and awful logic. The good thing about the show is that its sheer awfulness makes it a must-see for people who truly cherish bad products. It's truly worth watching this show to see what rehashed plots they trot out, to see what Kellly will be wearing, or seeing Ms. Ford and Mr. McGinley playing thankless roles and playing second fiddle to everyone's favorite baby factory.

They also rely on a lot of guest stars; Clint Black, Regis Philbin, Kathy Lee Gifford(!), Kevin Sorbo, and Roger Clemens are just some of the people who've decided to appear in this embarrassment. Still, the show is doing pretty good for ABC but if this show was on a better network it would have been canceled long ago. If this is the best that ABC can do for a sit-com, ABC will be the Number 4 network for a good long time. Still, if you cherish cheesy, awful-out-of-the box products then check this out because I can't see any non-reality T.V. show being worse than this.

Awesome!

[samanthaspade_wat · 20 April 2005]

I absolutely love this show! Every episode is hilariously awesome! I think Kelly does an amazing job of being Faith, she is so great to watch, and very funny. Not saying Faith Ford isn't - she's an amazing actress too! One of ABC's finest shows in my opinion. I have to say, Sydney isn't very convincing as a 14 year old though (or whatever she's meant to be). The old Sydney was played by a 25 year old, and it is so obvious, but she doesn't ruin it that much, and she is a great actress, though I prefer the new Sydney. Some of the best, funniest lines I've heard have come from this show, it's the sort of show that if you're feeling down or bored just switch it on and you're instantly smilie again!

Better than I expected

[climbergirl117 · 20 January 2006]

I had low expectations the first time I watched this show, but it has quickly become one of my favorites. Faith Ford and Kelly Ripa are perfect for their roles on "Hope & Faith". Hope (Ford) is a housewife/caterer whose sister Faith (Ripa), a soap opera actress, lives with her, as her career is pretty much dead. Her husband Charley (Ted McGinley) is a dentist, and is always in a friendly tiff with Faith. Older daughter Sydney (Megan Fox) is a mini Faith, and is the source of a few sarcastic yet funny lines. Middle child Hayley (Macey Cruthird) is the smartest of the bunch, and has the curliest hair I've ever seen. The only person I think does not fit in with the rest of the cast is the son Justin. The character would be fine, but Paulie Litt's look and timing are off (I'm not knocking a little kid's acting skills; I think they could have found someone better). It is also fun to see how the situations Hope & Faith get into play out. I would recommend this to anyone who likes a good laugh, or likes any of the cast.

*On a side note, I find it funny that their names are Hope and Faith, two values/qualities that have similar meanings. I also like that one character is named Faith, and the other is played by a Faith.

Hopeless! - A worthless excuse for a TV Sitcom . . .

[pagangod · 10 December 2005]

Being a fan of quality comedy product, imagine how shocked I was when I first saw this appallingly BAD show! Now I didn't watch just one episode and dismiss it, oh no, I watched most of the 1st Season and half of the second, this I think puts me in a position where I am able to criticise...

There have been many U.S. 'family type' sitcoms, but this must rank as one of the most dire in recent history.

Firstly the writing is, if one can call it writing, weak beyond belief - these people aren't writers, they are talentless hacks who couldn't spot a quality gag at 5 yards. Plot lines vary from the merely predictable, to trite and twee and to the plain and simple f***ing lousy!! But sometimes weak writing can be counteracted by a solid cast with a strong comedy sensibility - sadly Hope & Faith has nothing like a good cast.

In all fairness, most of the cast just about acquit themselves as serviceable actors - but just only just about.

The award for most irritating and misjudged comedy performance goes to the appallingly bad, Kelly Ripa - a so-called actress with a grasp of comedy technique that it is so lacking as to be non-existent.

With over-the-top, facial 'mugging' being her main stock in trade, Ripa spirals from one bad scene to another even worse scene without barely time to take a breath - the only thing she seems have in any sort of abundance is energy, for this I cannot fault her.

But energy and over-acting are simply not enough to constitute a good comedy performance - which makes Kelly Ripa no comedy actress.

There is no subtlety in Ripa's attempts at acting, no refinement and virtually no comedy timing on her behalf - surely things that are standard requirements for a quality comedy performance.

If all this sounds like I'm Kelly Ripa-bashing, then yeah, I suppose I am. But Ripa certainly deserves it as she probably the very worst thing about this show, well, maybe Kelly Ripa AND the scriptwriters should take equal blame.

I didn't expect Hope a& Faith to set the sitcom genre alight, but by the very same measure, I didn't expect anything quite as bad as this REALLY is.

I caught this show here in England on a cable channel called ABC1, along with other shows that were as new to British viewers as Hope and Faith , a couple of these shows were: Less Than Perfect and Eight Simple Rules...

Bottom line is this, I was expecting no more, no less from these other shows - I was VERY pleasantly surprised! Both Less Than Perfect and Eight Simple Rules are excellent comedy shows and are vastly superior to the massively inferior Hope & Faith.

I must cite Eight Simple Rules in particular for having a perfect cast, providing top-notch, classy performances, augmented by excellent, witty and razor-sharp writing - if Hope & Faith had only half the quality of ESR, then it wouldn't be quite that bad, problem is Hope & Faith, in comparison to Eight Simple Rules, is left floating dead in the water.

PG.

i laughed so hard my sides split.....NOT!!!!!!

[belfasttbloke · 19 October 2005]

Hope and Faith..is by far one of the worst comedies ever made. It's a mish mash of mistaken identity, wrong place wrong time etc.. scenarios. None of which could ever happen in real life. As for the main character "Faith" nobody in reality could be that self centered and shallow. The cast and writers absolutely stink perhaps they would be better suited to taking part in kids puppet shows because thats the height of the talent employed in creating this sordid excuse for comedy.

I can't think of an episode that was even remotely funny. The worst episodes were the ones about the funeral and the court case. The recipe for good comedy is to have talented actors,writers and story lines with some presence in reality. This is something the producers failed to grasp.

Great Show For Women.....Really Cute!!

[XsWeEtLiLGiRL90x · 13 February 2004]

This is a really cute show that I like a lot! It is very funny and is similar to Life with Bonnie. I can see the station that plays both these shows getting a lot of viewers. This show may look a little stupid or goofy at times and being totally truthful I never had intentions to watch it. There was really nothing else on tv and I like Kelly Ripa and Faith Ford so I thought I would give it a shot. To my surprise it was a very cute and easy to follow show. I recommend this mostly to women but everyone should really give it a shot. Really Cute! I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
