Oh Grow Up Review

Oh Grow Up
You know you're in trouble when a dog grabs a sitcom's biggest -- or should we say only -- laugh lines, and such is the fate of Oh Grow Up, a look at three mid-30s ne'er-do-wells aimlessly ambling through life. One guy recently discovered he was gay (his wife didn't take that too well; still hasn't, in fact), another found out he had fathered a daughter who's now in her teens (he -- and she -- are coping), and the other is striving to make a palatable -- and profitable -- artistic statement. Since the show is largely given over to gags about noisy sex, any artistic statement is highly unlikely.
