Outnumbered
Wednesday, August 6th, 2008
The only other new sitcom from FOX this year is Outnumbered, written and executive-produced by Larry Levin. (There are actually two cartoon comedies on the FOX line up, but I don’t count cartoons as actual shows. Sorry, but that’s just the way it is.)
Outnumbered is a family sitcom, which is described as a “a fresh and hilarious approach” to the sitcom. The description on the FOX site mentions both Curb Your Enthusiasm and Malcolm in the Middle, as similar shows for one reason or another. Apparently, the adult dialogue is scripted but the children’s is not. This is very confusing to me, cause it seems like scripting the children and allowing the adults to improvise makes more sense, like The Cosby Show. But whatever.
