It's an okay show, it's just not a great show. It doesn't deserve all the praise it gets, and definitely not an 8.6 rating.

The plots are very dull, and the acting is just very forced a lot of the times. It is the kind of show future grandmothers might watch. You should watch it if you're bored and there is nothing on TV but don't expect to make it your favorite show or die laughing.

I appreciate that they are trying to show how the idea of what it means to be a family is changing, including interracial relationships, gay marriage, and divorced families. It is in an interesting concept, yes, but it's just not that funny of a show. It tries too hard to be funny. Like, I said, it's okay, you may smile here and there but you're not gonna crack up.
