Jeff Foxworthy portrays himself in this mid-1990s sitcom, which is roughly based on his hit stand-up comedy routines that specialize in redneck humor. The series ran for two seasons, the first on ABC that followed the comic as an Indiana family man who operated a heating and air conditioning business. (ABC, incidentally, chose the Hoosier State as the setting out of concern that the Southern-infused comedy was not suited for a national audience.) The second season aired on NBC, which revamped the cast and the plot: The family now lived in Georgia, and Foxworthy worked on a loading dock. A noted co-star is Haley Joel Osment as one of Foxworthy's sons. As it turned out, the soon-to-be movie star and Foxworthy were the only actors to appear in both seasons.

The problem with the new Jeff Foxworthy is that, despite the cosmetology, it's essentially the old Jeff Foxworthy with the same protagonist, pleasant but uninspired Go to Full Review
Tom Shales Washington Post 04/13/2020
It's one thing for a sitcom to be unfunny and quite another for it to be brutally, desperately sad. But such is the case with The Jeff Foxworthy Show, a lowly slug crawling out of the mud. Go to Full Review
Jeremy Gerard Variety 04/13/2020
"Foxworthy" is the beneficiary of extraordinary life-support measures for a show that reveals no discernible pulse and which is to all appearances brain dead. Go to Full Review
Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 04/13/2020
The Jeff Foxworthy Show is, without a doubt, a better show than it was last year. It's better produced, fairly likeable and occasionally mildly humorous. But... "Foxworthy" still isn't anything worth getting excited about. Go to Full Review

Stephen C @bob25009 Jun 21 23 unfunny episodes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 11/27/2021 The first season was fantastic though technically When Russell and Walt got replaced with Wayne it felt like more like it had two seasons. That was a great show, this one that was changed, felt like it played more to the stereotypical style of what TV wants you to think of people and what is most portrayed often as and it annoyed the living hell out of me! It was the stereotypical annoying character tropes and it was so feeling so forced that I couldn't even think how people enjoyed this. I can see why this went downhill it was a disaster, it also really made me mad on how the new wife character was played I don't understand why that was drastically stereotyped to the point of bad writing. it reminded me of how bad I hated Reba only for the fact of how they wrote Barbara Jean and how she had no repercussions for her actions it was that bad. This whole season was not good and I was very disappointed in it. See more Read all reviews
