''According to Jim'' is an American situation Comedy television series originally broadcast by ABC .
The show premiered with little publicity in October 2001, following the surprise hit comedy '' juggernaut '' Frasier ''. Although ''Jim'' did not beat the competition, it performed well enough to secure itself that spot on the 2003 fall schedule. Despite its success and keeping a steady core audience, the show was panned by some critics as an example of a tired sitcom.

SYNOPSIS

Jim is an abrasive but lovable suburban father. He's married to a gorgeous woman, Cheryl, and raises his three kids – Ruby, Gracie and Kyle – in a big house. Everything is perfect for Jim, if it wasn't for the messy situations he gets himself into and his laziness, which often makes him search for alternative ways of doing things with less effort. Of course, having his wife's siblings hanging out at his house all the time is no help. While Andy might be one of his best friends, Dana often teams up with Cheryl against Jim.
