The tale of 3 adult siblings caring for their teenage sister in the absence of parents, Run of the House is surprisingly like Party of Five except without the angst and with a much weaker cast. The Run of the House family don't feel like a family. Kyle Howard as Chris makes easily the best impression, but it's difficult to believe he is related to Joey Lawrence and Sasha Barrese. Margo Harshman as the teenage sister has so far suffered from a bland, underwritten role, and Mo Gaffney's "concerned neighbor" is pure dead wood. Howard is worth attention, but I'm not marking my schedule to watch this show in 2004.
