The McCarthys Premieres on CBS on October 30, 2014
THE McCARTHYS is a multi-camera comedy about a close-knit, sports-crazed Boston family whose somewhat athletically challenged son, Ronny, is chosen by his father to be his assistant high school basketball coach, much to the surprise of his more qualified siblings. Ronny wants nothing more than to move away, join the singles scene and find a partner. His distraught mother, Marjorie is not upset that her favorite son is gay, but that he wants to leave Boston and his family. Ronny's plans change, however, when his politically incorrect and outspoken father, Arthur stuns everyone with his choice for an assistant. Touched by his father's offer, Ronny embarks on a completely different future and he can be sure that his loving family, including his twin brothers Sean and Gerard and his sister Jackie, are going to have a very vocal opinion about it.

I didn't find it funny but it was certainly watchable but gay son comedy has been done before and with a family like that no wonder he would want to get away Author: Milks26 Time: 11-1-2014 08:20 Subject: Reply 4#4 bala's post
Oh, yes, hasn't it been done before. Cancel Pile!
Only think I really have to say about this show was damn that kid looks like his dad (Tyler Ritter). He resemble John more than his brother Jason does although, he to looks like his Dad. Plus, the captain from Rescue Me lost a lot of weight - and he to had to contend with a gay son on Rescue Me.

CBS Pulls The McCarthys From Schedule Sooner Than Planned
I know some Irish eyes that aren’t smilin’. CBS has pulled The McCarthys from its schedule sooner than planned, replacing the freshman comedy with Big Bang Theory repeats effectively immediately. The Futon Critic was first to note the scheduling change. The McCarthys was always scheduled to go on hiatus before exhausting its 15-episode freshman run, following its Feb. 12 broadcast. (Two and a Half Men‘s hour-long series finale fills the 9:30 time slot on Feb. 19, and from there on CBS’ Thursday sitcom slate is to be as follows: new Big Bang, Odd Couple, Big Bang rerun, Mom.)
Sources tell TVLine The McCarthys technically is not yet cancelled and the four unaired episodes could see the light of day, though there is no plan at this time to broadcast them.
