Oct 11, 2016 | Full Review… Caroline Framke Vox In many ways, The Real O'Neals is Tuesday's version of Modern Family - a tad more real, perhaps, but just as funny. Nov 28, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle Top Critic Last year's finale seemed to isolate the O'Neals as a group, but season two sees them branching out in a way that hints at promising secondary characters and relationships outside of the family. Oct 12, 2016 | Rating: B | Full Review… Ashley Ray-Harris AV Club Top Critic View All Critic Reviews (3) Audience Reviews for The Real O'Neals: Season 2 Mar 15, 2017 Season 2 was a big improvement, although the characters are still insufferable, there were some good oneliners. Sylvester K Super Reviewer Sep 08, 2017 Was my favorite show. ABC was short sighted in cancelling The Real O'Neals. It was great having a show showing lgbt youths in a straight comedy. They had something special with the cast and the crew. Rj A Feb 19, 2017 new favorite comedy <3 Malley P Jan 31, 2017 Another hilarious season, our family's fave. Angela W Nov 15, 2016 Loving season 2 so far! Riley E Nov 14, 2016 I love this show with all my heart! Todd H Sep 05, 2016 This show sucks. Its the generic typical Hollywood sitcom and nothing stands out but making fun of the political right I would say which is ohh so brave.
