I just found this show and binged watched! It’s so funny and I have told all my girlfriends about it! It’s like a modern day Family Ties just less PG. pleas don’t cancel! It’s the only prime time show I watch!
Sorry, Folks. I do not agree with any of you. Katie is completely waisted in this mess of a show. She deserves better. The rest of the principals are not likeable and bad actors, especially the husband and the boy and the show is horribly written and the premise is stupid. It’s only method of survival is having The Middle as a lead in.
Love this show binging at the moment on Hulu…please don’t cancel!!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this show! Love Katie. She is so me.
This show and its characters make me laugh!! I need this show! I love it! Please keep it on the awesome Tuesday lineup!
Love, love the show! Really portrays what us real housewives! Instead of the reality housewives shows, that a majority of us real people can’t truly associate with.
Please keep this show on!
Please do not cancel, I really enjoy the show it one of the few shows I like. The actors are wonderful and I can relate to Kate’s attitude
I LOVE American Housewife. Please renew the show.
I love my old hometown of Westport. Was disappointed in the tv series. Think it may be cancelled. Doesn’t show the real spirit and timeless beauty of Westport. Series seems a bit frivolous to me, and not memorable. I forget last week.
