Critic Reviews for American Housewife Season 1
All Critics (38) | Top Critics (23) | Fresh (22) | Rotten (16)
The writing in the two episodes I've seen is funnier and more pointed than the show's premise.
The subject matter is in good hands with Mixon in the lead, a casting choice that should leave "bad moms" everywhere celebrating. Or at the very least ditching those godawful green smoothies.
The "fat" stuff is way overdone, but Bader and Mixon are good. Otherwise, your watchwords are: too soon to tell.
American Housewife tackles an issue that's sure to reverberate with many.
Mixon's casting would have been much more meaningful had her show more frequently let her form speak for itself. American Housewife's star, so far, is Katie's weight-and a number is a pretty boring premise for a story.
American Housewife so far is too busy taking offense to be much fun to watch.
Once called "The Second Fattest Housewife in Westport," the series hits the usual notes but doesn't sing.
Katy Mixon is a star. It's honestly her intense likability that makes this show so watchable.
I'm pretty sure having Mixon's Katie Otto make disparaging remarks about "skinny mommies in tight white jeans" isn't the best delivery-system for a celebration of all things good about Katy Mixon.
It's not a revolutionary setup for a TV family, but again, it's all about how Katie handles them that makes it work.
Katie and Greg are solidly likable characters who only sometimes fall into predictably ridiculous plot traps.
Its central character isn't actually fat. Of course, that's part of the alleged joke in this mean-spirited sitcom.
Audience Reviews for American Housewife: Season 1

Jun 16, 2020El tema central de la serie no es su fuerte, pero es divertido centrarse en las subtramas, y aunque la mayoría de lo personajes secundarios no son explotados. La familia Otto, más específicamente los hijos, son un ancla para no querer dejar de ver el programa.

Apr 02, 2020I hate this show. The MOM character is the worst, the rest of the characters are ok. She reflects the worst in humanity, she is not funny, not charismatic or not even a good mother. Why do they keep on torturing us with her face? Please disappear her like in Rossane and keep the rest of the show. I think Diedrich Bader, the husband could be funnier, he is a good actor in a poor character.

Jun 15, 2019Just watched this for the first time. By far the worst show I've watched. The first 15 minutes is focused on being a "fat wind" and a racist "fat" lady. Ugh
