The age gap between Elfman and Simmons spoiled the show for me. He looked more like the grandfather than the father/husband. She looked like she might have been the second or third wife but then they would have had younger children, if any. Elfman's character acts as childish or more childish than the children. I can look past the unbelievable abilities of the blind husband but the family just doesn't ring true as one that would have been established in the first place. Jason Bateman would have been better as the husband with Simmons as the narrator. Perhaps ensuing episodes will improve but usually the pilot is supposed to be better in order to get accepted.
