At Home with the Furys

Wow ! Just like "eastbound&down".. ...except, sadly, this one doesn't look like it's supposed to be a comedy (well i guess). It's just another reality-show that would make "idiocracy" looks like a biopic of Albert Einstein ! It's fake, boring,useless and a bit scary i must say : yet those people are so egotic, dumb and disgusting that you sometime want to cry, and wonder what we did to get Humanity to such a low point of mediocrity... The good news is that you're still free switch off tv and read a book instead. That's what i did after polluating my mind watching those insane Flinstones after 20 unbearable minutes . Jeez , i must be really bored to crash into those things sometimes ! I put this in my top ten of the worst things done by a human being ever.

Well, well well, this is a turn up for the books. This show is all heart, authenticity, family and a peek into living and loving someone with bipolar. I was shocked in places, the children's language, what a twelve year old girl is allowed to look like, but once I got past the end of my own nose I was more and more impressed by the family unit and how they keep it all together. The insight into bipolar is stellar. I do believe this show will remove a lot of the stigma surrounding men and mental health issues. None of it felt scripted or contrived, which is hard to come by these days. It's not something I ever thought I'd watch, but I'm glad I did. The show is not what I expected at all.

I'm not a fan of boxing but I enjoyed this so much. I really like the Fury family as a whole. They may be rich, the may be famous but at the heart of it they are a normal family. Even though they could buy what ever they want I think it's very admiral that they watch their money. If it can be cheaper elsewhere they chose that option. The kids aren't spoiled and are taught the value of things and how they have to earn their way in the world. Paris needs a medal never mind Tyson. She puts up with a lot, has the patience of a saint and is naturally comincal they way she responds to daily life and the kids behaviour. Such a likeable family. Worth a watch - hope there will be a season 2, very, very soon.
