Date My Dad

This show has a lot of heart and a genuine goal to bring the concept of family television back to the forefront. In a society where content is more designed to cater to niche audiences 'Date My Dad' reminds us what family TV is all about. Each episode deals with a relevant topic but does so in a way that doesn't 'talk down' to the younger viewer while at the same time displaying respect for the parent figures. In one particular episode the topic of bullying is addressed from two different aspects.

'Date My Dad' is easy to follow and focuses more on the overall message of each episode instead of forced laughs. The show has funny moments for sure but the best part of the show is its simplicity in delivery and the warmth and heart which shines through so brilliantly.

I love this show. Wholesome family values have return to television with DATE MY DAD. Barry Watson is superb as the single dad raising three daughters on his own after the death of his wife. Well. he wasn't totally alone , he had help from his mother in law Rosa played by Beauty Icon Raquel Welch. There is also Robert Wagner who recently joined the cast. Wagner is a valuable asset I think, plus he has great chemistry with Ms. Welch. I would love to see more of Welch and Wagner in the forefront in the next season and the many more to come. I can't express how great casting is in this show . Everyone is superb, not only the seasoned actors but the new up and coming ones as well .

Date My Dad is a fun show with great actors. I feel there have been a lot of series with snarky and cynical comments. "Date My Dad" is a refreshing break. The supporting cast is awesome including Cindy Busby and Robert Wagner. The daughters, Barry Watson, and Raquel Welch also provide depth to the characters which they portray. The show explores a lot of feelings and transitions that occur after the death of their wife/mother in a way that is very supportive of each family member. Its a great example of navigating through the intensity of grief and keeping a positive approach in life. Thanks screenwriters, producers and staff.

I am not sure why some reviews consider Date My Dad a boring and predictable sitcom. I completely disagree, as I feel like this show is a breath of fresh air! It is not only adorable and funny, but it isn't afraid to confront issues that are current and relevant in ways that makes you think, and more importantly, feel. The actors are fantastic across the board, and it would break my heart to see this show cancelled. I adore Date My Dad! Bravo!

Admittedly Berry was the draw for me. I'm currently binge watching after it initially stalled out for me. But now I must admit each new episode is getting better. It still needs some bunching up. I feel it needs to be a bit quicker, script wise. But the additional guest stars are amazing. I mean Robert Wagner! Brilliant. But above that the content is now hitting home. Each episode includes a real life lesson whether your a single parent or not. Some bring me to tears.

Just a bit more speed in the script and I believe you'll have a winner on your hands.
