Hunderds.com: “F is For Family” is the Only Cartoon That Will Make You Cry
A new and fairly extensive review. (Contains spoilers)
Quote:So on December 18, 2015, while the world was shitting itself over Star Wars, Netflix released a little cartoon that shattered those brave enough to give it a chance.
At first glance, F is for Family looks like a Family Guy or a The Simpsons wannabe. But a few minutes in, you’ll find comedian Bill Burr and Michael Price’s animated series has nearly nothing in common with those. Maybe The Simpsons a bit.....
Bill Murphy, brought to life by Haley Reinhart, is the second youngest of the family. His role in the show is like a backwards Scout Finch-type, where his family’s dark complexities and hidden agony are used as paint—him, a blank canvas. He’s an innocent kid, picked on by a bully, loves his little sister, and just wants to hang out with his dad. He’s illustrated best when he finds himself forced to avoid his parents by hiding under their bed. What ensues is one of the most organic and painfully exposed marital arguments ever put in a cartoon—where the Frank basically talks shit on each member of the family in a way that’s only to be heard in an adult argument, lest it be taken in by a child’s ears who can’t grasp context or Frank’s level of sincerity. Sue unveils her contempt for her husband right before they hate-fuck directly on top little Bill’s silent, crying head. Even though everyone tip-toes around him, thinking they’re keeping adult secrets, he’s wildly aware and absorbing adulthood’s harsh realities without guidance. Like when he’s forced to go to the football stadium’s bathroom alone (where he sees the grown men puking and pissing all over each other) because his father is trying to impress his boss so that Bill can eat. Because “A man’s gotta do what a man does.”

Browsing through Netflix I noticed that FIFF comes up with a five star rating, but I think that just reflects my rating. It has 711 member reviews with lots of five star ratings. But it seems to be a love or hate type show. If a rater didn't give it five stars, then it is likely they gave it only one star. That may go with the territory since the show has a lot of swearing and some outrageous activities. Happily the 4-5 star ratings seem to outweigh the 1-2 star ratings by a healthy margin. It would be great to hear they were renewing the show. It might take a while for this show to find its audience but it seems there is an audience for it.

My 18 year old son just watched it last night, his friends had been encouraging him to, I had casually asked if he had last week, not mentioning Haley was in it. He came down half way through to tell me it was hysterical. He was very surprised when I told him the part Haley has in the show.

@mikepriceinla the word "soon" is anathema to Haley's fans

@HaleysTusk How about "in not a lot of time"?

@mikepriceinla @billburr OK Since there's chance @HaleyReinhart sings #FiFF how about "Dreams" Fleetwood Mac, Rumours was HUGE in the 70s
Quote:Haley Reinhart @HaleyReinhart 16m16 minutes ago
@HaleysTusk @mikepriceinla @billburr LOVE that tune.
Quote:Michael Price @mikepriceinla 16m16 minutes ago
@HaleyReinhart @HaleysTusk @billburr That one's a little late for our 1973 timeframe, but let's find one that does fit!
Quote:Tusk @HaleysTusk 6m6 minutes ago
@HaleyReinhart @mikepriceinla @billburr I have the song, been tweeting Haley to sing it forever, "Killing Me Softly"
Quote:Michael Price @mikepriceinla 2m2 minutes ago
@HaleysTusk @HaleyReinhart @billburr Great great song. Perfect for Haley, if I may say so.

Michael Price @mikepriceinla
3h: @HaleysTusk @HaleyReinhart @billburr Great great song. Perfect for Haley, if I may say so.
I've been off and on tweeting Haley to sing this "Killing me Softly" since I joined Twitter.... I am so jazzed that both Mike and Haley like the idea
*btw I suggested another song released in 1973, but we've already heard Haley cover it before, Bennie and the Jets, so I'm glad Mike liked the Roberta Flack song
