Customer Rating: - Great message in movie, delivered with sensitivity
Glaser does a convincing job as a dad and school football coach. His bemusement at the start of the movie about how his stay-at-home-mom wife never seemed to get on top of the homemaker job transforms into a new respect for her when, outside his control, he loses his job and his wife gets offered one of her own. It takes about 24 hours on his new job as stay-at-home-DAD for everything to fall apart around him.
Each job switch gives each spouse a new perspective and respect for the other. It's not just a "husband wakes up movie".
GREAT family viewing, especially for any family where there is a stay-at-home-mom working hard to keep the show together.
Funny throughout. Great for all ages- no guns, violence or foul language. I can't believe it's not on Netflix or Blockbuster.

Customer Rating: - Wait til Your Mother Gets home
This movie is far better than the theatrical production, Mr. Mom starring Micheal Keaton. This movie is based on a real story, and all the characters are based on real people. The humor in this movie is true from the heart, in real situations. It can easily translate to any family economic situation. It is a simple story told with much love, affection, humor and truth. I have been looking for a copy of this movie since it first aired on television in 1984 ( I believe). Since I seldom watch movies at all, and have a poor memory, the mere fact that I have retained the name and love for this movie speaks strongly, at least to me.

Customer Rating: - The "ORIGINAL" Mr.Mom
This 1983 made-for-TV comedy is far superior in all ways to the later-made and more famous theatrical release MR.MOM.Paul Michael Glaser and Dee Wallace bring this funny TRUE tale of Bob and Pat Peters' summer of role-switching to the small screen with great skill.Bob is a typical high school football coach who bets his wife that he can do the housekeeping and child rearing better than she can.Pat's desire to be in the workforce is met by Bob's superior smuggness and the deal is made between the two of them.What follows is an extremely hilarious,exhausting and eye-opening summer for Bob.If you think that housekeeping is a lowly profession that anyone can do, just watch and see the epiphany of Bob Peters.Is this a great movie? No,but for what it is,a lighthearted jaunt that is full of true-to-life laughable predicaments, this film succeeds in tickling everyones' funny bone.100% all- ages- friendly.
