I Liked the show so much I bought four copies of the first season from the walmart bargain bin for 5 dollars each.

Guess what everyone in my house is getting next Christmas
Actually that show in season one was the only thing that shat head did that I like.

He's been doing the same shtick for over 20 years--and Premiere Radio gave him another hour for his lame ass radio show. All Heil Hitlerworthy, Der Fuhrer of redneck comedy! Farking POS
jeff foxworthy is hilarious!!! i'm glad he's got another show on the air again. his jokes r funny. i really enjoy his "u might be a redneck if..." one-liners. i like his country accent. he is a true country boy. jeff foxworthy, u r cool!!!
jeff foxworthy is hilarious!!! i really enjoyed the show, can't wait 4 the 2nd season 2 come out, hopefully soon. jeff foxworhty kinda cute also.
There more of Jeff on http://www.jefffoxworthy.org
The theme song for everything Foxworthy does on TV -- sitcom, special, you name it -- should be Paul Simon's "One Trick Pony."
Good show just wasn't based on his stand-up very well though. except season 2
when Brother-in law Wayne came in to it.
The last season when he jetisoned some funny characters and got a new wife. She was far too young for him. Jeff needs an ego check.
I am almost ashamed to admit this, but I liked the first season for the most part. I was into the setup, and I was able to forgive the fact that they dumped two characters half way through. But when they went on Americas funniest home videos, it was done and over with. Glad I quit watching. sounds like it got worse.
I will agree that the show jumped when it was retooled and switched networks. However, I think that the show should have started off with the family living in Georgia. Kelsey Grammer is responsible for having this show cancelled. He wanted to put out a show that he produced and did not care for the southern comic stylings of Jeff Foxworthy.
Never did a sitcom have more potential!And the band aids they tried to put on it with the move did not help.THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH THE SHOW WAS THAT IT WAS TRYING TO BE AN ANDY GRIFFITH TYPE MORE THAN A MARRIED WITH CHILDREN KIND OF SHOW. HAVING A SLUTTY DAUGHTER AND A BRAT KID ,WOULD HAVE BEEN FUNNY IN THEY MADE THEM CARTOON ENOUGH.
So, everyone's wondering why he suddenly had a wife, and boys instead of a baby girl! All that's explained in the "lost episode." Just think, a single episode where he divorces his first wife and forgets about his offspring. Then he marries a woman with two boys he met in an Internet chat room and moves. Now the whole thing makes sense. Throw in the white trash name calling and psychological undertones of your favorite episode of Jerry Springer and you've got an the answer to the Jeff Foxworthy enigma. The really frightening part? This plot could actually be a TV reunion movie!
Okay, I've never voted on this site before but I had to make it clear that this show was doomed from the beginning. I heard about this show and I was rather excited because Jeff's standup was hilarious and the Redneck stuff was classic. Oh god, it pains me to remember this, but the very very first 5 minutes of the show Haley, the annoying cute stereotype sits on Foxworthy's lap and says," Dad, someone at school called me a redneck, what's a redneck, and how do I know if I am one?" Calmly, I switched off the T.V., sat down, grabbed a pair of pliers, and proceeded to pull out my teeth. What the f**k?!?
This show jumped the shark from day one. Jeff Foxworthy's redneck jokes were already outdated by the time this show came on, and he was not an actor. At one time his jokes were funny, but now they are just really outdated.
When in its first incarnation on ABC, Jeff's family was put in the Midwest and had NO southern jokes!?! A move to NBC brought a move to Georgia, a new family, and actual redneck jokes. Alas, by then the "You might be a redneck if..." thing had run its course, and this show was off in one year.
