The reason MILLION MOM'S and the CATHOLIC CHURCH are boycotting the station for this show about the young Mr. Savage is not because it is pro-gay and anti-Christian, but because it is very offensive in every way possible. They hang a Holy Mary over the toilet so the boys remember to not pee on the seat. They make Christian cookies to make the son who is bulimic eat. This show uses every old THREE'S COMPANY theme ever. Over hear a secret on an open mic -- check. Girl learns karate to protect herself and becomes a bully -- check. Girl starts a charity and steals from it -- check. Jesus doesn't visit Christian parents but visit gay son who doesn't believe in him daily -- what? The show won't last. Too liberal. Gets less views than several shows that were cut this year. The GLAAD folks are pushing it so it might get a second season but with the lowest viewership in its time zone, won't last. To me, the biggest issue is it is just not funny. SKIT THIS

Few episodes in an not enough laughs...Almost none. What's with the Morgue like make up on the gay son Kenny. That actor looks too old for his character and I can try to look past his annoying face but his voice makes me like the sounds of nails on a chalkboard now. But they do have a couple of decent characters and some fancy dream/imagination sequences....Trying to watch it....few episodes in, hate Kenny. Guess I am a hater and will give up if I don't laugh soon.I like Modern Family, Fresh Off The Boat, Big Time in Hollywood FL, Big Bang Theory, Man Seeking Women, F is for Family, Master of None, The Office, HIMYM, Parks & Rec, Shameless, The Goldbergs(Most of the time), Brooklyn Nine Nine, Last Man On Earth, Legit, Louie, Silicon Valley....etc

When I first saw the trailer few months back, i was too excited. Now i can't wait for the next episode. Its funny, subtle and hilarious with stereotypes. I loved every bit of it.Noah's acting, voice modulations, dance, expressions are damn near perfect. No wonder he is in theater.Bebe wood is all grown up since i saw her in the new normal.Sarayu rao in guest role is icing on cake. Princess Panjali has actually become a women.Everybody else has put great amount of acting. I just don't want to give any spoilers.Well done!!! Bravo!!!

-spoilers from the first two chapters- I love this series! As a gay man my coming out of the closet to my family so many years ago (In a country not as progressive as the US) was very much like Kenny's was. His mother telling him to "try with a woman" or that "it is just a phase" is typical father homophobic response. Adding on top of that that the O'Neals are an actual conservative catholic family puts on top of that a pressure over Kenny with all the church morale. I love that the core of this show is about a gay boy born in a homophobic family being raised with religious century old rules, and trying to find himself in the world. The fact that it is loosely based on a real gay person's life is what makes it so real and allows for gay people to identity with the main character, and even more so, putting a comedic spin on all these situations is so good! I wish I had seen this show when those stuff were actually happening to me. It is not easy to cope with all the family and community pressure to go back to "being normal". Other shows have tried to make this but when they go the Drama way, like Desperate Housewives or Glee did, it is very good for people outside of that situation but for the actual gay kid it is more depressing for people on those situations. This show instead treats those things with humor and shows that deep down, Kenny's family still loves him, and at the end of the day they are beginning to accept him. It is an unexpected and welcome message that this first homophobic reaction from his parents is not the end of the world and that the rebuilding of the relationships with his family are not as hard as they seem to. All young men coming out as gay should watch at least the first three chapters of the show. It will teach these boys coming out that whatever they are going through, it will get better, which is the message of the It Get's Better campaign, whose founder is the person this show is based on.By the way some reviews just jump to one star and homophobic remarks pretty much shows that this show is doing something right. Those religious conservative homophobic people are as ridiculous as Kenny's mother is and I applaud that a show is willing to show on regular TV that their speech of hate is something we must change with love and (as this show does) with laughs. Thar hatred for gay community is what drives so many gay young men to suicide. We need to change that.Other reviewer said it could go without the imaginary bits but I'm saying otherwise, for me they are the best part of the show, specially that on on chapter 3, because those imaginary bits really compare how we think things are going to be in contrast to how things really are, and comparing with other shows and musicals where things seem more easy. In real life, those flashy things don't happen as much as we love to, but instead we have the little moments.
