    I have been watching Grandfather for the last three weeks. I do not think The main character John Stamos can carry a television show by himself. The best shows on television have a strong ensemble cast, like Modern Family and the Big Bang Theory. When John Stamos was on the Full House show he was one of the most popular characters, but he definitely was not the main draw to the show. They needed all of the likable talented cast members to make it work. I am not finding the potential relationship between him and Paget Brewster believable even though she is a great actress. John Stamos is well known in real life to prefer MUCH younger women and I am not buying the attraction between the two. John Stamos has not done anything noteworthy since the full house show. It is interesting that FOX would bank on him to be the main draw to a new show?

    I really love this show I really hope they don't cancel it.It gets a bit cheesy when Jon is too into himself like with his ex tugging on his hair I was like what on earth I can't watch this.And man its hard to watch how much of an embarrassment the son is but Im looking forward to the chemistry between Jon and his ex. Stuff finally starting to unfold a bit in this area in episode 3.It's got some funny stuff in here man. Loving this!I think this show is similar to Baby Daddy which is awesome. Baby Daddy nor this show really incorporate the baby/toddler into the show too much, it's hard, I think the only one show that really pulled off baby/toddler was Full House, they did a good job.But this is all about the hilarious Grandfather that's why I think it should keep going. I really hope it goes on.

    OK, John Stamos is back with a new comedy. It is about a self-centered 50+ bachelor who his life turns upside down when his -never met before- 26 y.o. son enters his life. And bares a baby with him, a grandchild for our hero.The series is build heavily around Stamos's character who is practically in every scene.The script is mildly funny. A couple awkward moments which the hero masters gracefully, some self-sarcasm and....well...pretty much that's it. Not heavy jokes or tense moments.So, it is a comedy for really light viewing. No fake laugh track is always a plus. Not the best newcomer of the season but you may want to give it a try.

    When John Stamos and Rob Lowe both return to TV at the same time, it's hard to tell one pretty boy from the other. That aside, "Grandfather" (Stamos) appears to have a harder sell ahead than that of "The Grinder". Creator/writer Daniel Chun can write good TV, but as it stands, a TV sitcom (Grandfather) is different than writing a successful TV series (Hello, Ladies). Chun will need to find some/more funny in his writing (without going over the top), stop depending on Stamos (himself) to carry the shows storyline, give the ensemble more to do and say, and especially not depend on "cameos" (Don Rickles, Bob Saget, Lil' Wayne and Deion Sanders) to sell the series. From the pilot, things don't look good. However, Stamos is a TV favorite and for that reason alone I'm willing to stick with the show a bit longer. Drop in and check-up on your "Grandfather".
