Neither [Man With a Plan or The Great Indoors] is groundbreaking or particularly exciting; both are quite likable and solidly constructed.

Man with a Plan just makes you wish he’d take his sincere befuddlement elsewhere, someplace that mattered. Simply put, Matt LeBlanc is too good to be this irrelevant.

The story of this TV show may be pretty far from being original, but it's a very kind and funny with pleasant characters. Have no idea why there are so many negative reviews here.

This is hands down the greatest TV show ever created. Le Blanc is on point, his prowess on full display. The set is gorgeous, I found myself pausing the show just to admire it. The writing is unbelievably good, I laughed so hard I had to change my underwear three times in one episode. The moral of the story is: This show is super great.

It is by no means a great sitcom out of the gate, and it’s about 8 billion light-years away from anything that could be described as cable-y. But there are worse ways to spend a half-hour.

As far as comfortable, mediocre family sitcoms go, Man with a Plan appears to be finding a nice groove, establishing a patter between easy stereotypes and incrementally encouraging Adam to grow.

Less charitably, it's as if CBS has been sucked into a time warp -- delivering the fourth best sitcom of the 1989 season.

The show places a tremendous amount of faith in LeBlanc, but in spite of the occasional flash of Joey Tribbiani panache, he’s always outshone by Snyder, Nealon, or the analogy-loving dialogue of husband-and-wife creators Jeff and Jackie Filgo.

This is one of the least authentic family sitcoms on TV, right down to the horrible home set, which looks like it was cribbed from the scraps of canceled shows.

I'll admit it. I don't like Matt LeBlanc. I thought he played a serviceable idiot on Friends but I just don't buy him in any other roles. When I heard he was co-hosting Top Gear I just knew the series was a goner. You can always tell your watching a bad show by the delivery of the actors. It's almost like they're wincing as the words come out of their mouths. Kevin Nealon's talents are completely wasted here. The kids are the most interesting part of the show. CBS is usually slow on the trigger when it comes to canceling shows but I don't see how this mess can possibly survive.

I loved his show Episodes so I was really disappointed in this. He played a wonderful role in Episodes, I truly thought he wouldn't do anything as bad as Pucks ( the tv show in the tv show Episodes).

Matt LeBlanc is just not believable in this role. I mean he could just phone it in and be the same. I really expected his character to shout "Yo, I'm Joey" a few times. I mean Matt just stands there and speaks his lines. No movement; no emotion -- just another one dimensional Joey from friends. I think the thing that irked me was the arguing with the kindergarten teacher - over and over and over. Seriously, my kids don't even take a bad joke this far. Another bad show this season.

It is a series with nothing theme relevant. There is nothing funny because it seems a mixture of other programs that also failed. Nothing groundbreaking.

I hope Matt LeBlanc's plan is to find a television show that is actually entertaining to watch because this new show is light years away from being entertaining.
