Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/12/23 Full Review Lukas-Jeremie K F is for Family is not an innovative comedy series.A family man who works a low-paying job and has a difficult relationship with his family is nothing new, but a comedy series doesn't need to Invent the wheel new.It just need to be funny and that is "F is for Family" without a doubt!I think the series is very well done and has often brought me good laughs and kept me entertained for hours.It's a comedy series, so there is not very much to unpack here, but it's definitely one of the few very good Netflix series on their platform.I am sad it ended, but hey, every good things must come to an end sooner or later. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/09/23 Full Review Wolfgang G F is for Family ist eine Animationsserie von Bill Burr und Michael Price. Die Serie ist eine herrliche Karikatur der 70iger Jahre. Ja eine treffliche Satire über den Generationenkonflikt, den Geschlechterkampf, den Konflikt über Reich und Arm usw… Die Serie beleuchtet ohne Tabus jedes Familienmitglied, ohne dabei die ganze Familie aus den Augen zu lassen. Und alles ist mit herrlichem Humor gemischt… Die Familie Murphy überrascht mich jedes Mal aufs Neue… die 70iger Jahre lassen grüßen. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review Sutandy T Amazing show. I think it is easy to misidentify this show as just another animated, mindlessly raunchy comedy. It's dark and raunchy but it has heart. You watch the Murphy family at odds with family, work, school, friends and just life but through it all, they remain a family, however, toxic it may be. The jokes are there, and for me, it hits a soft spot for sure. Absolutely love it. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
