It wasn’t a strong showing for Guys with Kids but it certainly wasn’t a bomb either. The real test will be to see if last night’s viewers return next week and how the show fares once the other networks start airing originals.

What do you think? Do you like the Guys with Kids sitcom? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Has to be a season 2. Just watched the entire first season on Hulu plus in 2 days and I’m begging for more. Come on NBC everyone loves this show
agreed!!!
This show is hilarious! Great cast and Anthony Anderson rocks! Any show with him should never be cancelled. He is a comic genius. When America finally realizes how funny he is this show will be worth its weight in gold for NBC. Keep it on! You wont regret it!
My wife and I love this show!! Renew it!
We came across the first episode of this show completely by accident. Fell in love with it immediately! We are in the 30-40 year old range with young children, so we relate to a lot of its content, and LOVE the humour! I truly do hope this show gets renewed for a second season. Too many reality TV shows right now, not enough simple sitcoms.
Please make a season 2!
I love this show so much, I bought almost every episode on iTunes, and continue to watch old episodes laughing every time. This show is my new favorite.
My wife and I love this show!!!!! All the characters are great, they are funny, it is a well done show and we would really like to see more of it.
We love this show. Before they cancel it, why can’t they try it at another time, another day or even another network, but don’t cancel it.
I agree 100%
yea absolutely ! Please dont cancel it! IF ANYTHING it needs more promotion!!! i mean sell the **** out of the ending of the last episode as a cliffhanger type commercial for season 2! I guarantee you’l have an amazing turn out next season
I love Guys with Kids! Comedic genius!!! As a parent with small children, I can relate to a lot of the same issues presented on the show. My hubby and I laugh our heads off throughout the show. And we almost completely forgot our anniversary this year, just like Gary and Marny! The first few episodes were a little cheesy but had potential so we kept watching. And I’m so glad we did! This show is awesome!!! Truly funny, without alot of the crap that passes as comedy nowadays. And I was as giddy as a school girl when Keisha… Read more »
