 @Twistin' - Mind you, these days you'd be surprised what people are considering "family viewing". When you have people saying they're fine with their kids watching stuff like Outlander and Orange is the New Black or even Game of Thrones, seeing something as innocuous as The Smith Family in the "children and family" category isn't that unreasonable.

 @23skidoo...
Yeah, that's correct...but also incorrect.

I hate the fact that the genre is called Children & Family, as if the two are the same. Many children shows (ie, Barney, etc.) I would not consider family by any stretch of the imagination; at the same time, there are countless family shows that are explicitly not categorized as children. I really wish that the "children" part of the genre was purged since it misrepresents so many shows (and movies over on the Cinema world). So, in this case, family is very much a unifying thread throughout the show, but children...erm, no.

Oh, and the family part of the show is one of things that makes this show unique, since so many episodes intersect Chad's family life with his work (ie, his teens protesting and having friends getting mixed up with drugs, etc.)

 That's a trio of genres you don't see together very often - crime, drama and ... children and family? I had to check to see if that might have been a goof, but i guess it isn't.

 Yep, that "Primrose Lane" does stick in the head. Shame nobody is interested in releasing this to DVD. :(
