* JerkassWoobie: Wade. Hot-tempered and aggressive, but seeing the mistreatment he (and his brother Rolfe) suffered from Glen, it's understandable. He's portrayed as a troubled man, but not necessarily a bad one, at least in the beginning.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Sure, Wade was a difficult person to have around, but it's like his daughter Jill wasn't even trying.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Sure, Wade was a difficult person to have around, but it's like his daughter Jill wasn't even trying. When not sulking and giving Wade the silent treatment, she would whine about absolutely everything, including such trivial things as the truck that Wade drove while his car was in the shop.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: Seeing 69-year-old Creator/JamesCoburn with dyed hair and makeup to make him look younger in the flashback scenes is very odd, since he doesn't look anything like how he actually looked when he was middle-aged. But it works, since it lets Coburn disappear into the character and emphasizes the discomfort we feel watching Glen Whitehouse be an abusive jerk to his family.
