Premise
Duncanville centers on the life of Duncan Harris, an average 15-year-old boy, who is always one step away from making a bad decision. Along with Duncan lives his mom, a parking enforcement officer, who dreams of being a detective someday and always has to watch Duncan; his dad, who tries to be a better father figure to Duncan than his father was to him; his sister Kimberly, who is a normal teenager going through normal teen-phases; and his other adopted Asian sister Jing, who is an intelligent 5-year-old who is always giving Duncan advice. Mia is Duncan's on-and-off crush.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The pilot was rather mean-spirited and depending on your view, was a Duncan torture episode as his family wouldn't talk to him because he accidentally broke a tree while driving.
 * 2) Kimberly is the least tolerable of the main characters as she always acts like a brat towards Duncan.
 * 3) The jokes can be childish sometimes.
 * 4) The character designs are pretty ugly and unappealing, considering the fact that it's animated by Bento Box Entertainment that same studio that animated  mh:terribletvshows:Allen Gregory.
 * 5) There's a shameless product placement for Uber in the episode "Fridgy".
