DVD Description
Ben, a dentist, and Susan, the worst cook in the world, are certainly loving, caring parents – they just have a problem showing it. Ben seems to be confused as to how much time and money his kids demand from him. Susan has to juggle motherhood, a career and a husband and doesn’t have enough time to manage everything, including improving her cooking skills. Nick is always working on his next hare-brained scheme to keep himself amused. Janey, like any other normal teenager feels that her parents are seriously embarrassing whilst Michael keeps his head in his books to get away from the noise.

Why add background laughs?
Review date: 2007-12-31 Rating: 8 out of 10
I have really enjoyed this first serie and have already ordered the second one. I only hope that the producers will have given up the background laughing of the audience in the next episodes because it is really unnecessary and even a nuisance in such a quality programme. I wish it were possible to switch it off as it is already possible to choose between the options with and no subtitles.

Bland and Predictable

I can't believe this is supposed to be funny.
I wish I did find such a poor sitcom to be amusing, but I need something a bit more stimulating than this pathetic excuse for comedy.
I think Citylink were trying to tell you something....

What a marvellous service Citylink did for the customer below by not delivering this embarrassing slop to their door.
To call this 'comedy' is on a par with thinking of George W Bush as a grownup.
Honestly, i've seen funnier episodes at the doctor's and the sooner Britain gets a grip of itself and finds its funny bone in terms of sitcoms the better.
Now where did i put Citylink's phone number....
One of the best DVDs and the worst delivery!

Well, I watched this on telly and wanted to buy this for my collection.
I have been a customer of Amazon for 7 years and I had never made any complaint and I have never returned any goods. I have also shopped online from several other companies.
The delivery company Citylink is simply a disgrace for such a reputable company like Amazon to use. I was home for the past one week and stayed in the lounge all day to wait for the products. However, I tracked these items online and found out Citylink claims that they had attempted to deliver these items and 'carded'. Funny enough, no one rang the doorbell and no postcards were left. I called Citylink early yesterday morning and told them I'd leave the door wide open and lights on and I would be at home all day. At 2pm, I tracked it from citylink's website, it said they had attempted to deliver at 1PM. This is a complete joke and lie.
You can type in Citylink and review in google and find out other customers' experiences with citylink. Enough said.
If you want your items fast, select first class, not express.

My Family is complete drivel,i can't believe people are giving this 5 stars!!?? In the pantheon of classic british comedy,e.g only fools,blackadder,Royle family etc this ranks very low on the scale indeed,the episodes are corny and very very unfunny,please if you have not seen this show you are one of the lucky ones..avoid please!
