I wasn't expecting much out of the show. I had no idea it was based on a guy in his late 20's living with his Father who is in his 70's. The scenario of such a circumstance is certainly believable with the way the economy is these days.
I certainly wasn't expecting Shatner to make me laugh, boy was that a pleasant surprise. The guy plays the part of a blunt old man to the 'T'. His lines suit the title of the show. Give credit to the Gentleman that actually did record sh*t his Dad says, after all, the show wouldn't exist without it.
I laughed from start to finish. Keep in mind though, everybody has a different idea of what comedy should be. If you liked the type of lines Al Bundy had, then you might get a laugh out of this. It is simply...raw. Maybe it helps that I have a friend like this so I can relate.
Give it a watch, judge for yourself.
