She's a neurotic stay-at-home mom and he's a successful businessman, but both Kim and Greg Warner are obsessed with being the perfect parents to their young son (and daughter later in the series' run). Kim's sister, Christine, has two children of her own, and a much more relaxed philosophy about child rearing. Christine's husband, Jimmy, is an unemployed loudmouth who also enjoys giving the Warners advice on how to run their lives.
Yes, Dear — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus
