Suburgatory

description

When single dad George Altman finds condoms in his 16 year old daughter Tessa's dresser drawer he flips out! Not wanting her to turn into a "bad girl" he up and moves them to a suburban neighborhood away from the big city (New York). This leads the smart alecky teenager to conclude they must now live in the perfect town, one where the Stepford Wives reside. The mothers and housewives all appear to have implants in various places and wear the same designer clothing. When the ladies discover that Tessa's father is single they go right to work welcoming him to their neighborhood with pot roasts and plenty of other offerings. Well written and filled with some interesting comparisons to "real life" in many towns, Suburgatory has a biting comedy that is a fun and welcome addition to evening TV fare. Starring Jane Levy (Shameless) as Tessa Altman, Jeremy Sisto (Law & Order) plays the dad George Altman, right across the street neighbors Dallas and Dalia Royce are played by Cheryl Hines from Brothers & Sisters (Dallas) and Carly Chaikin (The Last Song) is Dalia, daughter of Dallas who quickly becomes enemies with Tessa.

Parenthood

Comedy & Humor
If your family drama cannot be "Modern Family" or "Brothers and Sisters," then what can it be? It almost inevitably will be NBC's "Parenthood," a mid-season, post-Olympic experiment boldly launched in February, 2010. The "Parenthood" experiment tests the hypothesis that good writers and actors can find the middle ground between "Modern Family's" understated but outrageous satire and "Brothers and Sisters'" intensity. Producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer are re-working the basic premise of Parenthood, the 1989 movie starring Steve Martin as a frazzled father trying with all his might to do the right thing for everyone he loves. The New York Times accurately observes, "'Parenthood,' with its polished scripts and beautifully shot exteriors, seems like a last gasp of television past," big-big production values and a cast of small-screen all-stars including Craig T. Nelson, Bonnie Bedelia, and Lauren Graham. "Parenthood's" plots and dialogue exploit the irony in everyday family life, winning empathetic laughs and wry smiles where other teams might push too hard for punchlines. Some of the dialogue has the same brilliant serrated edge that distinguished "Gilmore Girls," but, as Lauren Graham points out, "I do not have to talk so fast." Like all good comedy, the teasing and quirkiness are fundamentally good-natured, and every episode features at least one weep-worthy segment. Because "Parenthood" is not "Modern Family" or "Brothers and Sisters," it has become the rarest of rare productions at NBC"”a hit.
