      This show was brutal to watch. The acting was on par with a high school play, and the constant, predictable and unfunny "one liners" that were permeated within each episode almost made it impossible to get through a show. Amos and Rolle were definitely capable actors, but all the other ones in the cast, and in particular the children, were simply brutal in their horrible acting acumen. Maybe that's why you consider the parents "especially great actors", but in reality they were mediocre. The horrible supporting cast just made them look better than they were.

    The writers of these sitcoms are THE true talent! Sure, the actors have to deliver the lines perfectly, but it's the writers that get the ball rolling into great comedy. People forget that. "That's cause weirdos have respect for each other."
