It's a widely held belief that networks premiere their B-list shows in midseason. If they were any good, they would premiere in the fall, right? Fam proves that across the board.
The show feels like it cobbled together pieces of other shows - especially The WB's "What I Like About You" - to become its own perfectly pleasant sitcom Frankenstein. Even when it doesn't do much to distinguish itself, it's just fine.
Fam boasts an almost outrageously good cast, one plugged into the most hollow and familiar of premises and then fed with a broad assortment of reheated multi-generational punchlines.
