Baby Blues

Synopsis:
When longtime friends Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott first discussed doing a comic strip about parenthood, Rick, at least, knew what he was talking about. He and his wife had their first daughter in 1984, and in 1987 their second daughter was born. Jerry, who had no children, thought what Rick was going through as a parent was very funny. So he decided to write about what he saw at the Kirkmans' home — temper tantrums. Dirty diapers. Teething pains. When Rick added his superb artwork, Baby Blues was born.
The strip has enchanted new parents, grandparents and kids alike since it first appeared on the comics pages in 1990. As the years passed, the list of newspapers carrying the feature has grown — almost as fast as the MacPhersons' kids! Baby Blues now appears in more than 800 newspapers worldwide, and the adventures of America's favorite first-time parents have also been chronicled in 18 anthologies and 3 treasuries. In 1995, the National Cartoonists Society recognized Baby Blues as "Best Comic Strip of the Year."

Not as good as the TV show, but OK. Probably makes more sense to parents than to teenage interenet nerds, but who do they think'll be reading the site? I guess since this was originally syndicated, and still is, it probably had a better chance of reaching it's target audience, which explains it running for so long. |

Poorly drawn, predictable and pedestrian humor |

Perhaps this stuff does ring true for a lot of parents, but the bland writing and non-jokes can only take it so far.
This piece of crap clutters up the comics page. Why, oh why, would anyone want this cluttering up their cache as well? |
