    I'm not interested in this, it has a good heart and i really like the idea behind it but it seems like a bad tv show idea like an ABC comedy that would get cancelled like "Money dad: not every dad is made of money but this dad is LITERALLY made of money, money dad: coming to abc this fall" it seems gimicky. But I really do wish you the best of luck and it's an interesting idea and i am sure some people would watch it. just not me.

    The event you held to advertise this show should have been...no wait, should have ONLY been an amateur wrestling competition. The other West Coast shows should have each entered a theme wrestler and then the teams who leave the most bloodied and beaten should have been made to concede there Comedy Coup spot. Violence is great.

    I can admit that I have been looking for a project the whole family can fall in love with. There's a lot of crap out there with pointless swearing, vulgarity, and, for some reason, a whole lot of weed. Thanks for being honest about it, I think the raunchy comedy is seriously getting stale, but a project like yours can show that people can laugh together without making half of them feel squeamish. And love the family dynamic between the uncle and kids.

    The girl is definitely a good actress! But the guy? Not so much! I'd definitely give the show a try. And I like the idea of letting teen writers write some of the episodes. It's just that I don't really buy the guy's wrestling voice. It sounded like his voice was cracking. And I just didn't buy the whole, him being a wrestler, thing. But at least the actress is good! So you've got that goin' for ya!

    I am curious as to why you have the wrestling angle? Did the Amish Annihilator ever step into the squared circle,? Is he still wrestling or does have a different job now?

    I think you are on to something with a clean family friendly show. Congrats on top 55 and best of luck to you this week for top 15!

    I don't like wrestling but well done hype video. If you make it to the Top 15 I would like to see more videos that clarify the idea even more

    We've had a lot of talk about wrestling from our audience. Truth be told, there's as much wrestling in this show as there was baseball in the show Cheers. Sorry wrestling fans, there's not much wrestling. We've mapped out the whole first season. Sometimes we cut to his rants and his buddies come over every now and then, but that's it. The Annihilator is retired. :(

    good job! I think your wholesome family angle will appeal to a lot of viewers. I like how your video showcased what the shows goals are and where you can go with it.

    I like this video because of the Macho Man Randy Savage reference. That man was the bomb and this video was entertaining.

    I can't say I was ever a fan of wrestling per se, but you guys have definitely made the world of wrestling (and post-wrestling) more interesting than it is, so kudos for that! Keep up the good work!

    Family friendly comedy is soooo under rated. I would love to see a quality, Canadian comedy that was okay for all ages to watch. I agree the sex and violence is over done on television.

    Nicely done video. I think it would be great to have a new family comedy on TV. I hope to see more of your concept in the future as I think there is always room for clean family programing.

    Hey there. Good job on this week's video. You explained your concept well. I wasn't completely sold on this video on the comedy aspect, until the end. The end was hilarious with the teenager consoling the Annihilator. Good luck next week.

    Nicely done! Loved the "wrestling" response :))) yes, some people are obsessed :)) I might be one of'em, but on the family regards, that's why I love your show - all ages and good humour and all protagonists are working hard on their acting skills, which I soo appreciate! You grow up with your show and this will take you further to Top 15!
    Have a great and productive week and also have a great and rewarding Saturday party! Wish I was there, but I'll be anyway in sending positive vibes and veeery fond thoughts!
    See you in Top 15!

    I think it is cool that you are pushing the family programming angle. Shows do not have to be violent or inappropriate in order to be funny. Good luck for top fifteen!

    Good work on the hype it mission. sometimes I feel like it's just the projects commenting on the projects and there is no audience here. But from one project to another: Good job.

    I think your strongest aspect of the show is the fact that you're selling it as a family show. Not a lot of people have access to child actors and I think you should run full speed with it. I for one, am not up-to-date with any of the family programming of today, so I assume that you know what's on today in order to keep your idea fresh! I feel like you could have spent more time developing the concept rather than doing that last bit, but I'm excited to see where you guys go with this!

    I agree that there is room for family programming. This reminds me of an old show about a wrestlers who was a school teacher. Hanging the Ropes I think it is called? Good luck and I like the fact you are giving teen writers an opportunity.

    I really like the fact that you have incorporated kids into your show. I believe that it really makes your show unique and separates you from the rest of the pack. There is room for a family friendly show on the CBC and I think this show has the strength to fill that slot! Congratulations on making the top 55 and good luck making the top 15!!!

    I'll be honest, the acting needs a bit of work. I like the premise -- I think the marketing slant of a 'family comedy' is a strange one, I pictured this being more like a cheesy 90s wrestling throwback, I don't think the two are incompatible but just seems strange to pitch your show as family comedy.

    I thought your video explained your concept quite well to the media. The joke at the end about not really liking the kids was great too. As for all the '1-2' ratings, I wouldn't worry too much, everyone seems to get those (I know you aren't really worrying, but I'm just saying anyways). I'd say the worst ratings are when it is a 1 or 2 and all it says is something like 'dumb' or 'lame' and doesn't explain anything at all. Anyways, I think you guys are also really smart about your event in teaming up with other groups. Sounds like a fun night.

    That was great! I liked your video. I love family viewing, no sex, no violence. you made me laugh too. I would say that I did not understand all the words said by the 'wrestler'. Maybe because he was acting a 'wrestler' and sometimes it's hard to understand them. Maybe I'm just going deaf!
