That’s not enough to stop this family though and it appeared in syndication on ABC Family, MTV, and now on most streaming services. The series ended with a total of 91 episodes which is just shy of the golden 100 number for syndication.

Two episodes into the third season, Fox cancelled the show but the WB immediately grabbed it and then renewed the show through a fifth season. Though I should be thankful for what Grounded For Life did get, this was a midseason replacement on Fox (which isn’t a ton of faith) but plenty of successful shows debuted that way. Beautiful, funny, sarcastic, and with an “it” factor that should have made her a bigger star. The actress would be 20 years older now but through the time capsule of TV, Price is a star. As an adult though, Claudia is the hot next door mom we all wished we had while growing up. Young attractive redhead who gets put into various stories about sex and experimentation. Despite many episodes of mistakes there is never a doubt he loves his wife, he loves his kids, and he will always be there for them even if it can’t be in the most perfect ways.Ģ0 years ago I thought Lily was the star of Grounded For Life, and in some ways I think she was being pushed as such. Hope you don’t mess this up! Donal Logue plays a dad who had to give up waiting for the real adults to show up and is fumbling his way through. Back from the hospital, late at night, someone’s mom or another family member leaves and it’s just you and the baby.
GROUNDED FOR LIFE CAST MANUAL
The most terrifying moment of being a new parent is realizing the real adults aren’t coming and the manual hasn’t arrived. He is fantastic as an imperfect father trying his best.
GROUNDED FOR LIFE CAST MOVIE
I know him from a very little seen movie called Tao of Steve. Then there are the silly sitcom moments like the barbershop is closed so lets do haircuts at home. Sean and Claudia trying to justify their own self medication while steering their kids away from it. Lily and the other kids growing and dealing with peer pressure and dating. Eddie films a porn in the house during one episode. Lily becomes more sexual as the show goes on. They had their first child at 18 and two more along the way. Ground For Life is part Roseanne, part Married with Children, part TGIF. Donal Logue and Megyn Price star as Sean and Claudia Finnerty. Instead of having to stay in their room for two weeks as punishment for missing curfew, they’re grounded until all of these kids are grown up and out of the house. The idea is the Finnerty’s had their first child Lily at such a young age that they aren’t done being stupid kids themselves. Sean’s brother Eddie and their father Walt are always at the house too. I can’t believe Grounded For Life is 20 years old.ĭonal Logue and Megyn Price star as Sean and Claudia Finnerty.
