It's too bad that the show got cancelled; I actually got a kick out of the show from the first time I saw it. Shatner is funny, has great timing and it looks like he is having fun, and his timing is great. It's cool that he can laugh at himself so well, many of us could learn from that. In fact the whole cast seems like they are having fun, especially Will Sasso. In 'Goodson Goes Deep' he makes a great show of trying to leap the counter and then later slide across the hood of the car, not bad efforts for a man of his age ! Many have said that the acting is hammy, well, 'HELLO !' most sitcoms are hammy and have bad writing too. This has quite good writing and is directed at adults instead of 14 year old kids for a change ! We generally don't watch sitcoms but this one is fun, and when there is a gap in other programming or a spare half hour without the ever present kids we can crank up the PVR and have some laughs.

$#*! My Dad Says is a decently funny sitcom with new ideas and the comeback of TV star William Shatner.Shatner has been in many TV Shows, Star Trek, Boston Legal, 3rd Rock From the Sun, and $#*! My Dad Says.The show follows Dr. Edison Milford Godson (Shatner), who's son Henry (Sadowski) lives with him.The plot may be generic, but the story lines are somewhat original.Not gonna be the best show, may not even last long enough for a third season. But, it's not at all a bad show.I'd give it a 7/10.

Shatner pulls another one out of his... @$$. Of course with the executive producers from Will & Grace, things can only be first class. Well... mostly. The funny lines of Shatner and his own comedy talents make up for the short falling of the rest of the show. Ideally, nothing is ever perfect. (In a perfect world, William Shatner would not have to buy hair...) Expect lots of star cameos and witty writing. Expect a lot of stepping on political correctness and spanking it's @$$. After all, that's what this series is all about... PC meets Old School. Shatner does not look 79...more like 59... and "Henry" looks to be in his thirties...which he is (31). Therefore, the premise works, unlike "Retired at 35". Sadowski is superior to McClain by far...although we could have hoped for Zach Braff to take the lead role of "Henry". Second string ain't bad...but the snap of a seasoned star like Braff would have helped tremendously to support the wit of the lead "Ed" played by Shatner...brilliantly as usual.The writing is coming along to support the premise and the main characters...but has not yet bloomed into its potential. Bottom line...the best new show of the season on any network. Perhaps the best show on any network... period. Including "Two and a Half Men" and "The Big Bang Theory." My VCR is set. I never miss it.

I don't like Shatner. Never have- ever. But I am a huge fan of this show, and wait for it each week. My family and I laugh throughout most of it, and I see no problems at all with the show or the characters. My least favorite would have to be Nicole Sullivan, which is odd as usually I love her. This is a simple, rude, at times touching, refreshing new show. I think it's much better than a lot of the new crap on T.V. nowadays. The old days of great shows seems to be gone, with shows that were good last season now failing miserably. I've looked into quite a few shows to go along with my usual favorites, and this is the one and only show that made it into the weekly list. Don't listen to all the naysayers- this is really funny. Give it a chance.
