## Description

Product Description Patricia Heaton stars as Frankie Heck in this warm and witty single-camera comedy about raising a family and lowering your expectations. Frankie Heck is a superhero. Well, no, not an actual superhero - but sometimes it seems to Frankie as though getting her kids out the door for school every morning is a superheroic act. Middle aged, middle class and living in the middle of the country, this harried wife and working mother of three uses her wry wit and sense of humor to try to get her family through each day intact. desertcart.com The Middle is the most honest--and, for that reason, the funniest--sitcom about middle class family life since Roseanne. Frankie Heck (Patricia Heaton, Everybody Loves Raymond) wearily runs a cluttered, chaotic household with her husband Mike (Neil Flynn, Scrubs) and three unruly kids: sullen teen jock Axl (Charlie McDermott), hopeless klutz Sue (Eden Sher), and smart but socially awkward Brick (Atticus Shaffer). The plots revolve around the kind of mild crises that make domestic life so difficult: Frankie and Mike can't find time to be alone together; debts force difficult choices; the kids spend more time watching television than talking to each other. Again and again, Frankie longs to teach her kids good values but realizes she isn't living up to those values herself--and her reluctant efforts to muster virtue within herself can be achingly funny. Frankie is superbly well realized, a perfect match of writing and performer. Heaton portrays her contradictory impulses (virtue vs. convenience, open-heartedness vs. a hunger for just a little time alone) with wonderful subtlety; the wary look in her eyes flickers between sincerity and cynicism. The supporting cast is every bit as strong. These kids actually look and act like kids, in all their obnoxious, oblivious, naive glory, not like glossy supermodels in training. Flynn pulls his own deft balancing act, making husband Mike blunt and a little insensitive without seeming like a jerk or a caricature. The show is still working out some kinks--Chris Kattan (Saturday Night Live) plays a hapless coworker of Frankie's; the character has possibilities and Kattan seems game for anything, but the writers don't quite know what to do with him yet. A host of guest stars--including Brooke Shields as a white trash neighbor and Betty White as an imperious librarian--fit nicely into the show's world, rather than sticking out like stunt casting. The Middle treats middle America with compassion, intelligence, and genuine appreciation. --Bret Fetzer

Review: Funny to the core. A refreshingly, funny show. - This is one of those great sleeper shows that seems to live in the shadow of other shows on the air - mainly Modern Family: The Complete First Season which has been one of ABC's crown jewels. I am glad that ABC moved it to the front of their line-up and it is finally getting the recognition it deserves. I was introduced to this show through a lunch conversation with my sister. She was laughing hysterically as she explained the various characters (example, whispering to herself when describing "Brick"). The show sounded interesting and I had always loved Patricia Heaton in Everybody Loves Raymond: The Complete Series , so I had to find this little advertised show and give it a watch. It was LOVE at first sight! Even though I hadn't had the background of the show, I saw one or two episodes from season 2 and fell in love with the wonderful cast of characters. Brick, Sue, Frankie, Mike and Axl. A perfect blend of characters, the show is gut-wrenchingly funny. After seeing 1-2 episodes I quickly ordered the first season on DVD so that I could catch up. This is one of the few shows where "out of the box" the series is funny. The first episode sets the framework up beautifully and does not leave the viewer wanting anything except more episodes. We watch these over and over and are waiting with baited breath for season 2 to hit DVD. If you want a refreshingly funny comedy that is family friendly, this is it. The characters are clever and funny. I am hoping this series lasts many, many seasons. It's a winner!
Review: A super-fantastic TV show...we hope they keep rolling them out as long as they can - Everyone in our family LOVED "The Middle" as soon as we saw it. Maybe it's because we lived in Indiana for 10 years...the setting for the show. Maybe it's because there's someone for anyone to associate with on the cast - the well-meaning but severely overworked and stressed mom, the hardworking and largely clueless yet effective dad, the egocentric HS aged son, the socially invisible JHS daughter who tries her hardest to be include by trying out for everything, but making nothing, and the brilliant, yet socially challenged elementary aged younger son who proves again and again that the act of giving someone a cool name, "Brick" in this case, does not guarantee that they will be at all cool. I had the brilliant idea of giving Seasons 1 and 2 of The Middle to my wife for Valentine's earlier this year... and it was a solid gold hit! My wife was thrilled nearly beyond words, and her friends were deeply jealous that all they got was a card and flowers. Take that other husbands! Ha! Anyway, this show is a total hit at our house. In fact, whenever we can we load up our dinner, haul it over by the TV and watch an episode...just one per evening...of The Middle while we eat. My wife rations the episodes out so they last longer...so we can savor them and look forward to them. Just in case you don't know about The Middle - it's a show about the most average family you can imagine living the most ordinary life you can imagine in the most ordinary place you can imagine. Frankei and Mike, the parents, struggle to make ends meet, Axl, the HS-age jock son, plays the teenager role brilliantly, usually painfully so, Sue is the sweet forgotten middle child who is self-sufficient and self-reliant, and Brick is the youngest, a child who loves NOTHING more than books and reading...to the exclusion of the world around him. 5 stars...and may the series run as long as the magic is there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hilarious family show!
*by K***E on June 22, 2016*

This is one of my all time favorite shows. I have caught episodes off and on throughout the years mostly reruns on ABC family but I decided to treat myself to seasons 1-4 so I could enjoy the heck family and all of their crazy life shenanigans. This family is just so funny and so relatable to me. I am able to relate to their house disasters, their kids being a little weird or annoying. I can especially relate to their paycheck to paycheck life style. The show never leaves me disappointed. I laugh and laugh at all of Bricks quirks and Axel's laziness. Sue is just such a refreshing sweet natured girl, I love that her character really comes in to her own as the show progresses. Season one is by far one of my favorite seasons. They overcome many obstacles, and the comedy along the way is just perfect. The first episode where Frankie gets stranded by the woman who claimed to be buying a car just cracks me up. One of my favorite episodes and yet I had NO IDEA that it was the first ever episode. So excited to progress through the first four season! You absolutely can't go wrong buying this show either streaming or DVD because it is absolutely hilarious fun family show!
