Don't get me wrong, this is a hilarious show in the vein of Everybody Loves Raymond mixed with Two and a Half Men, but with Patricia Heaton, Kelsey Grammer, and Fred Willard, I was expecting more humor. Give this a shot or two, but nothing more and nothing less.

What Parents Need to Know
About Back to You
Parents need to know that the characters in this office sitcom aren't always pleasant -- including the main character, who can be quite self-involved and obnoxious. Some characters fall into stereotypical categories, like the sportscaster who makes sexist jokes, and the weatherperson who uses her sexuality and ethnicity to gain popularity. Fairly strong sexual innuendo and other jokes are standard fare, as are words like "ass" and "hell" and some social drinking.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about stereotypes. Are they always wrong, or can they be used to point out the error of assuming that certain people always act certain ways? How does this show use stereotypes? Families can also discuss workplace etiquette. How do you do a job well and treat colleagues with respect? If you have a problem with someone you work with, how should you handle it? Is it ever OK to yell at or belittle a co-worker (or a classmate or a friend)?
