With Thanksgiving right around the corner, it’s time to spend quality time with your family. Right?
The animated Netflix series F is for Family follows a rambunctious and chaotic family who ends up doing unpredictable things. The show currently has four seasons and will end with its fifth and final season next year as stated by Netflix and its creator, comedian Bill Burr.
Each season deals with some Murphy family drama or conflict dealing with the kids Maureen (Debi Derryberry), Bill (Haley Reinhart), and Kevin (Justin Long) as well as the parents Frank (Bill Burr) and Sue (Laura Dern). Their neighbors even tend to be in on the chaos from time to time.
Maureen is the youngest in her family, the smartest girl in her grade, and is also the master mind behind her siblings antics. Bill is more on the shy side and will do whatever Maureen tells him to do, but as the seasons progress he begins to stand up for himself and becomes more destructive. Lastly there’s Kevin who is the oldest of the three. He’s in a band, doesn’t care about school, and is always fighting with his dad. With Frank, he works at the town’s airport where he gets paid very little, has a terrible boss, and basically has to do everything there in order to keep it afloat. Sue on the other hand stays home with the kids but feels as though she should be doing more so begins to go on a journey to find herself and her purpose in life.
If you like cartoons such as Family Guy, The Simpsons, Rick and Morty, or Bob’s Burgers, then you will love this show. It’s TV-MA so there will be lots of swearing, sex scenes, drugs, and violence. To know more about F is for Family, here are some links to other reviews and trailers.

I’ve seen my brother watching this show a couple times and the couple scenes I saw were pretty funny.

I have never heard of this show! I remind me of Family Guy, which I also have never seen, but something like that were it is an adult cartoon! I’ll have to take a look at the trailers and see if it’s something I’d enjoy. Thanks for sharing!
