Luke’s actor is fine, the character just isn’t as good anymore because of the writing.
The actors for Manny and Lily are bad though, particularly for Lily. She sounds like a nervous 8 year old giving a speech at a schoolwide assembly for every line.
I say give it one, maybe two more seasons then tie a bow on it.

Lilly is horrible, older Luke is not as fun.

Good start and its really bad now. The kids grew up into no talent hams, its overly preachy, and out of ideas. Was funny the first couple of years though.

I like it ok but it’s never been as funny as it seems like it should be. IMO

They should have brought more entertaining kids into the equation after the first crew grew up. Cosby Show and Full House did it well with Olivia and Michelle. Good family sitcoms need funny kids.

I've liked Cam's character more the last few years than in the early season.
It's about time to put it out to pasture though. They need a good couple of episodes to wrap up some of the stories, and move on.

Phil and Gloria have been so over-the-top ridiculous that it no longer resonates as humor.
Cam and Mitchell are the only consistently funny characters on the show.

Same here. Really enjoyed the first few seasons, but then this kids started getting old and the show lost a lot of its charm.

Now all the characters just seem so pretentious. Almost like caricatures of themselves. Just can't watch it anymore.
Happens to even the best of sitcoms, with few exceptions (Seinfeld held it together fairly well).
First 4 or 5 seasons of MF were legit, though. I think they nuked the fridge around the time of the gay wedding or shortly after. And, frankly, once the boys got into that awkward teenage phase, it was done for my purposes.

I stopped watching years ago. It was good when the kids were kids. My favorite interactions were between Phil and Luke, and it was hilarious how Phil couldn't hide his lust for Gloria, even in front of his wife.
It really went downhill once the Vietnamese kid started talking and the two boys grew up.

The show needs to be put to rest. I've been watching a few new episodes here and there and they are repeating the same jokes and scenarios over and over. Everything is stale. I think 4-5 seasons is the max for your family sitcom. Especially if none of the characters grow and develop.

People keep saying this. They announced month ago that the 2019/2020 season will be the final season.

The actor who plays Manny is bit part player in a Hallmark movie bad.

I’ve only seen the first 4-5 seasons then just kind of stopped watching naturally (got busy and never picked it back up) and I have never laughed as hard as I laughed at Phil in those first several seasons. Something about the goofy suburban dad he nails perfectly just hits me right in the funny bone.

First two seasons were great.
First episode of the third season the wife and I vowed to never watch it again.

Dude Ranch, right? Didn't that have the "If you ain't white, you ain't right" joke?
They had a horrible Disneyland episode at the end of that season.

Started out strong. Until maybe season 2 or 3. Got real bad real fast after that.
Posted on 3/24/19 at 9:21 am to RoosterCogburn585
Great show when it started. Now, except for Phil, it is too "smartly" written to ever be realistic and all the players are way over the top. It is very meh
