crimsongrl January 12, 2017 Share January 12, 2017 I want to like this show but it feels like it's still in the development stages. Every episode feels like a pilot where the chemistry isn't there yet. I like Kaitlin and the maid but I want to recast everyone else! I wish I could steal the kids from 'American Housewife' for this show and then maybe I'd have one new comedy that I love. I'll give it a few more episodes but I'm not holding my breath.

Big Mother January 12, 2017 Share January 12, 2017 What? I think the show is hilarious. I can use less gratutious violence - there's way too much slapping, falling, and blood in it - but I crack up every few minutes. The endless wads of cash, the military crazy grandmother, and Mick herself; I'm really confused because I don't knmow if she's good, bad or clueless. She's so good to the kids but such a terrible girlfriend (and even friend) but she has such a good heart. Can't figure it out. The daughter (I forget her name) shouild have called thep olice after her grandmother slapped her. That is child abuse. Or actually, that's assault and battery - she's 18 years old (I assume). You don't slap around teenager like that. Or anyone else for that matter. You know what else really threw me for a loop? The boyfriend. He looked so familiar. I looked him up and... there's no way that guy is Justin from Brothers and Sisters. He looks nothing lik ehim and sounds nothing like him but is apparently him? I'm so confused...

msani19 January 12, 2017 Share January 12, 2017 The show is decent enough. I still feel like this is where Dee disappears to when she's not on screen in It's Always Sunny. She plays the two parts in such similar ways, it's hard to separate. Maybe it's cause the 2 characters have a lot of similar traits. I hate the oldest kid almost as much as I love the other 2 kids, especially the youngest one. He's doing well for such a young actor. The daughter is just all parts of ugh to me, maybe its the teen girl thing but whatever it is, I can live without it or they can dial it back. I'll give it a couple more episodes but right now it doesn't feel like something I'll add to my regular watching schedule.

kat165 January 14, 2017 Share January 14, 2017 I'm so surprised that this show has garnered no comments. I watched eps Pilot through 4 today on demand out of boredom. I'd seen the show advertised & thought that it was about rude school teachers. Once I realized that wasn't true I almost turned it off but found it surprisingly funny. I might not watch it live but I will follow up with it on demand. It was surprisingly entertaining and a bit wickedly funny. The lead actress could be utternly unlikeable but she manages to make a somewhat dispicable person entertaining. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/52541-the-mick-general-discussion/#findComment-2902665
