    knowing a show like this, the mom will end up dying and he will end up having to raise the kid by himself.

      That would be pretty extreme.

      This show has been really good so far.

        IMO I don't think they will go that far.

          Neither do I. It will be interesting to see how things all shake out now that Katie knows about Jabar.

            Thanks for this thread because I would have ignored this show completely. Watched the Pilot and liked it a lot. Great ensemble cast and every story is intriguing. It's almost unfortunate that this show isn't on Showtime or HBO. I can see it going above and beyond on a subscription network*, but it seems like it'll do a good job tackling some everyday issues.

            *It's just humorous when you hear two characters "curse" each other out without using curse words.
            "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

              Yeah, but Parenthood is a PG13 show. Are there certain restrictions on non pay cable stations like FX? Even the gritty The Shield & Breaking Bad and the hilarious Always Sunny In Philadelphia cannot use the F word

                I don't think there are FCC restrictions, but I think all non-subscription channels avoid profanity and genitals unless they're showing Saving Private Ryan or Schindler's List.

                Apparently anything goes with those two. History channel also shows (or used to show) nudity on "History of Sex."

                            Show's really hitting on all cylinders. Everything worked this episode. Jabbar's birthday party next week is going to be something.

                                I've heard rumors this show is getting canceled. Anyone seen anything about that? I hope it makes it, my girlfriend and I really enjoy it.
