I wish I watched this show earlier, because it's 2023 and I shouldn't be feeling this way because of a slightly above average show.
This long comment is inspired by hating the character 'Riley Perrin'.
Ben was just a terribly immature character which made most of his scenes more annoying than funny. I get the persona they were going for but it was overdone. He spent most of the series messing up and apologizing. I mean, we've seen jerks that we still loved (Barney Stinson, Jake Peralta etc). But his scenes with Emma were just so heartwarming and funny you couldn't help but tolerate him.
Danny was one of the most relatable characters. At some point we've all loved someone who was in love with someone else. His character development was the most evident one. From being dumb to being slightly less dumb but with a kid. 😂
Tucker had great chemistry with all the other characters. But my favorite is the one with Bonnie, it was so wholesome to watch their duo everytime. I know if Bonnie was his real Mom, she'd have liked him more than Ben😂.
RILEY PERRIN IS A B*TCH!!! I literally typed "we hate Riley Perrin" and this page popped up. I loved Riley at the beginning of the show, she was my second favorite character and I really wanted her to end up with whoever she wanted, but over time her character became so selfish and unlikable. Also, what's with those terrible haircuts? Everybody remembers her irrational and selfish behavior with Danny but not the emotional rollercoaster she put Ben through when they were dating. Although, she totally blew the whole Danny and Sam fiasco out of proportion, it should have ended at that fake court but when she saw she was losing the argument, she decided to be a bitch and escalate it instead even though he still apologized after he won. She wouldn't have gotten that mad if it was Ben. I think it was a poor imitation of the 'Ross and Rachel, we were on a break' drama. Did I mention those horrible haircuts? She didn't deserve him. I still like season 1 Riley though. Also everyone gets more likeable when they're with Emma.
