If you guys haven't watched this, you need to. Hilariously funny (you can't be offended by the F word and raunchy talk). It has Sam Elliott and Debra Winger in it. We watched the first part and they released the 2nd part this week I think? About 20 episodes. I'm not a huge Ashton Kutcher fan but I really enjoyed this show.

I tried to watch it but I found it spectacularly unfunny. And I wasn't expecting a laugh track. I wanted to like it!

Just finished the 2nd part of the series. DH and I really enjoyed it. But I may be bias as Sam is my man. Except he's kind of a dick in this one.  |

I tried to like it, but it's so stilted and awful. I watched several episodes, hoping it would improve, but nope.

I also started it at the suggestion of my son and definitely could not get into it. I think I only watched 1.5 episodes.
Happy to take suggestions of other shows anyone else is watching.

I started Shameless last week. I was hooked from the first episode. It has a lot, and I mean A LOT, of sex, so if you're a pearl clutcher.... I also really enjoyed Nurse Jackie. |

Scorpeao I have watched all the Shameless episodes. What a family!!! I tend to watch/listen to shows at work shrunk down in the corner of my computer screen and let me tell you, that is one of the shows I have to sometimes have the box half off the screen because it's so "bad".
I will put Nurse Jackie on my list....thanks.

I liked it a lot too. I was expecting a different ending to season/part 2 as well too so that was a surprise.

These are still being used? That's very disappointing...I love Sam Elliott and Debra Winger. |

Loved it - just like the first season. Happy with the way it ended as it left me knowing there will be a 3rd round!

My DH loves it, but I couldn't deal. It's just way too raunchy.. And I'm not a pearl clutcher... And the laugh track was over the top. Too bad cause I love me some Sam Elliott!

I had high hopes because I like a lot of the actors and I didn't even make it through the first episode. Maybe it got better later on? Agree about the laugh track. So bad.

I watched 3 or 4 episodes trying to love it because I like the actors in it. I abandoned it.

One of my boys turned me on to it over the summer. I liked the first part ok, loved the 2nd part that just came out.

It was too raunchy for me too. My newest favorite Netflix show right now is "Offspring." It's an Australian drama/comedy. Very well done and the acting is first rate. I'm on season 5 and I binge 2 or 3 shows every night.

Growing up on a ranch in a very rural area, some of the humor is spot on. And a lot of it misses the mark. I still mostly enjoy it.
