If this show doesn't feature a guest appearance by Kane as his wacky neighbor, then I will be very disappointed.

So WWE isn’t producing things like this for their own streaming service because? With only like 1.6 million subs or something to that effect there's no way the Network is raking in the kind of money to produce a sitcom. This wouldn't pull in very many extra subscribers to it, which is why the bulk of original network programming is fairly cheap and with people already under contract who can be told to just do a thing because, or documentary stuff where they can just have employed camera crews recording shows and string together programming easily from that.

Also, Netflix needs content, WWE has money so...well, that. Also also NBC Universal's streaming service hasn't launched yet so no deals can be done with that.

Does this mean The Golden Gays WWE was making for the network is going to Netflix?

Looking forward to the episode where he has to be at both wrestlemania and the father/daughter dance at the same time.
Seriously, this is going to be hilariously bad, but I'm going to bet we are going to love it.

For reasons utterly detached from Big Show and way more to do with the premise and general expectation of how shows with that premise tend to go this sounds absolutely f***ing atrocious. Isnt it your typical "alpha man of the house is actually the fool" sitcom. Home Improvement did this stuff 30 years ago.

You can go back with this concept to the 50s, hell, I'd imagine on radio before that they were doing it.

I watched Knucklehead. I'll watch the Big Show Show. He's one of my favorites.

Hope you're ready for amazing jokes about a man not understanding what menstruation is, and how women are nagging creatures existing only to keep men from their god-given rights of beer and football

They say it’s a sitcom. But it will inexplicably turn into a drama, and back again, many times throughout each episode.

Boy, life is funny. When he debuted in 1995 WCW as The Giant, son of Andre the Giant, never in a million years would I think that he would one day be a wacky sitcom dad.

The premise of this sounds like a sitcom that would've aired for a single season in syndication in the late-80's/early 90's alongside such gems as Out of this World, My Secret Identity, What a Dummy and, of course, Learning the Ropes. And, as someone who watched every episode of those, I would've watched every episode of this. Major kudos for knowing What A Dummy existed.

netflix will literally commission anything at the moment due to all the shows being taken off it. It's not like they were all that particular before either. Netflix pretty much replaced straight to dvd.
