You can ogle hot women on the Internet, and that way Michael Rapaport doesn’t get rewarded for polluting my television.
I didn’t like “Arrested Development.” I thought it was overrated.
But “The War At Home” is worse. Way worse. I’m talking worse than “According to Jim.” It’s like Manimal bad.
I have been on my computer letting that dreck run in the background and I have yet to once even crack a smile at that rubbish.
It is the worst kind of rip off show. It mashes together Married With Children(WHICH WAS FUNNY) and Titus and gives us pure grade crap. It is not clever and it is not funny. It is… it’s time filled, poorly.
The characters are un interesting the jokes unfunny and the delivery and timing so horrible that even if there was a well written joke it would be declared DOA due to this awful cast.
So far the only reason anyone has given for watching the show is laziness (Man remember when we actually had to walk up to the tuner and click to another channel?) and that there is eye cnady on teh show.
Eye candy doesn’t make this show funny. Just blatently bad.
It’s on between *Simpsons * and Family Guy. So this is on, not that I really pay any attention to it–except for the hot mom. I’m usually doing dishes, reading the paper or something when it’s on.
I might still be irritated AD isn’t on, but I don’t hate this because of that. This is just plain stupid. And that dad guy talks way too much.

…what a mismatched pair!

Hah. I’ve already got half the theme song worked out! Fame and immortality, here I come!

Who said that eye candy made it funny?

Also the daughter is hot. I dearly hope she’s over 18, as I dislike being a perv.
Seems she’s 19. Which now, instead of being literal jail bait, is still figurative jail bait from my point of view.
She was born a few weeks after I was, so maybe that means I have a chance.
I don’t think “figurative jail bait” has any real meaning. That said, 19’s too young to date, wed, or bed–but not to young to admire aesthetically.
I draw the line at ogling women to those greater than 1/2 my age 
Sadly, she doesn’t qualify 
Until 2008 
She’s more than half my age. I’ll happily admire (I refuse to ogle, as that has implications of intrusion/creepiness I don’t care for) many women I’d not be comfortable dating.
Nope, not an AD fan in the least, heck, i’d rather watch Un-MST’ed “Manos; the hands of Fate” than TWaH
Oh, I ogle and leer. I draw the line at making suggesting gestures or comments, and at drooling. I try not to get caught (especially by Mrs. D_Odds).
The mom on TWaH reminds me a lot of the mom on Grounded for Life. Both are nice looking ladies with ginormous boobies who aren’t a size 0. Just my type.
I take exception to this. There is often considerable art in the animated medium, just like any other, and the flexibility of an animated universe can offer humor in a different way. There’s more possibility with the joke, and animated sitcoms aren’t held by the same reality restraints the way shows with live actors are (some keep those restraints, such as King of the Hill, but I can’t say I find much to like in that show). In other words, you can finally see something different with an animated show, instead of just the same old living room sitcom.
To dismiss cartoons as an entire group ignores the art of the animated program, which is different for many shows (okay, many of them are Simpsons clones). To attempt to ridicule a group of people for enjoying cartoons seems awfully close-minded.
Wrong word, I changed thoughts midway through the sentence and forgt to fix it all. Substitute “funny” to “worth watching”.
Plus while your at it remove any use of the word funny in context to this show.
Ah…but now we get to put you through the Hollywood Hitmaker Device
Do we have permission to say that you called it “A Hit Show” Mr. Pengvin?
-Joe, eevil
I don’t know about everyone else, but I hate both of those painfully bad “comedies.”
And you prefer watching a half-hour of pure dreck in the hopes of catching a peek at a couple of pretty girls. I’m not sure if you know this or not, but there are attractive women on pretty much every show that has ever aired in the history of television.
Stop being so dense.

True, but on Sunday, between 8:30-9:00pm, on a non-cable TV pulling in 5 channels, while working on my computer, trying to finish before 9:00pm (The Sopranos), it is the easiest choice. Plus, WaH does have something that many other shows don’t have - a delicious older woman. Eye candy or dead air…I choose eye candy. I definitely more done during WaH than during King of the Hill and The Simpsons.
