Shocked that the grandfather would show the grandson the Police Academy series. It's really raunchy.

Run The Burbs follows the Phams, a young, bold Vietnamese-South Asian family taking a different approach to living life to the fullest, while changing the way we think about contemporary family values and life in the burbs. Often the instigators of community events and always the first to know what’s going on in the neighborhood, the Phams have become the heart of their cul-de-sac. Through all the challenges and stresses of everyday suburban life, the Phams take on the world as a cohesive unit. Because together, nothing can beat phamily.

I really liked this as a light, feel-good, fun show, which I think is a good thing to have these days. I hope we see the racing club again sometime.

It's nice to see a show that doesn't turn on bickering and stupid misunderstandings

I didn't like Ep2 as much as Ep1. I don't enjoy seeing people act obnoxious and all the adults annoyed me this week (except  the cafe owner). 

As an overheated person living without air conditioning, I did laugh at the frozen food as cooling device.

I felt for the daughter whose art was being trashed, but clearly she and the neighbor girl are OTP.

I was so sure the pool neighbors were going to reveal themselves as swingers; MLM marketers was not on my bingo card

Looks like DirecTV solved the contract dispute, because the show aired  on TV here last night, instead of only on their website.

If Andrew could do the work at the last minute after ignoring it for the entire 2 days/nights before it was due, then he'll do fine once he graduates. Apparently he's a magician.

I was happy t have the question asked about "did you think someone was too young to know they were straight?" because that has always been my thought in these situations. 

Barb's entire personality changed once she got a boyfriend???

This was pretty enjoyable, especially with the confusion over whether Andrew’s dad was cheating and the neighbors going crazy over the spring rolls

I like that the couples in this show aren't portrayed as bickering. It's like someone figured out that unhappy couples aren't funny and happy well-matched people make are more enjoyable to be around.

Likewise, it was nice that they actually WANTED to have the grand-parents/in-laws visit, and they all actually like and respect each other.
