This series began as a good strong series that was a more realistic and entertaining reboot of "The Brady Bunch." By the start of the last two seasons the producers gave up on the show. Casting to the wind anything resembling continuity or any attempts at producing a quality show. In seven years, for example, Frank and Carol spent a few years getting to know each other, trying to make their new family dynamic work, getting pregnant & a year later giving birth to Lily, then Lily being older than the series (while the other siblings ages seemed to stay the same or in some cases slow down)!
What started out as a promising series turned into a disappointing joke as well as an insult to the great cast. In season 6, a shallow attempt to raise ratings by bringing on a Hillary Clinton impersonator (which sounded the death knells of the series - really? An icon of evil?) was the last ditch effort to salvage the series.
After firing Sasha Mitchell due to alleged spousal abuse (of which he was later exonerated & awarded custody of his children that were involved), half-hearted attempts to replace the character he portrayed were made. Sasha returned to reprise the role near the end of the series, but it was too little too late.
