The first season was great. I couldnt wait until season 2. Then when they killed off mother i was done. She was best character on show. Leah remini was great addition, but that's what she should have been, an addition. I wont watch it again.

Sorry, this comedy is not working for me. Stale concept. I feel like I've seen it before and heard all the redundant jokes. I'd rather watch it's other comedy competitors this Fall.

Unlike his former show KoQ ; Kevin James had a weak supporting cast and the writing was not that good also he looked tired and uninterested in this sitcom
