If they called it something else like bad uncle it would of been a mediocre to average comedy series. But uncle buck is john Candy. The character isn't like batman or James Bond where you can just keep rebooting with different actors over and over.

I never watch shows based on movies.

The persons who gave this show even a first season should have been fired.

A complete and utter pile of garbage. Hey Hollywood, think for yourselves!!! Candy and Hughes must be rolling in their graves.

Here's an idea. A show based on a movie from the late 80s about a fat white guy.... but get a skinny black guy to play him! Yeah no surprise this didn't last.

I seen that coming a mile away

watched half an episode and thought wtf??? how can they make stuff so bad...

it was so bad it's almost like ABC realized too late that they never even should have done it in the first place and just got it out of the way as fast as possible.. I didn't hear or know of anyone that thought it was a good idea once it started.

The problem was the family. The oldest daughter was written to be stuck up but was to over written, and could not act. The son was a caricature of a cliché. The youngest daughter was a joke with no punch line. The parents were useless and added nothing but an anti-buck storyline to each week. The family should have been left out, but what kind of a story is just one guy in a house.

It was very boring! Not funny at all.
