Is Bridgette’s search for her father worthwhile during the second season of the SMILF TV show on Showtime? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like SMILF is cancelled or renewed for season three. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustration when their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we’d like to offer you the chance to rate all the SMILF season two episodes here.

A semi-autobiographical Showtime dark comedy, SMILF stars creator, writer, and director Frankie Shaw, with Rosie O’Donnell and Miguel Gomez. In season two, the Showtime cast also includes Samara Weaving, Connie Britton, Raven Goodwin, Melanie Griffith, Sherie Rene Scott, Claudia O’Doherty, Ari Graynor, and Stormy Daniels. The story centers on Bridgette Bird (Shaw), a working class, South Boston single mother, who is striving to provide a better life for her son, Larry Bird (named for the former Boston Celtics player). In the second season, Bridgette continues the search for her own father and tries to spread her wings beyond the streets of Southie.

What do you think? Which season two episodes of the SMILF TV series do you rate as wonderful, terrible, or somewhere between? Should showtime cancel or renew SMILF for a third season? Don’t forget to vote, and share your thoughts, below.
