I was late to party. I only began watching this series this season. Rarely does a show make me laugh out loud. American Housewife does it many times a show. Oliver in particular is hysterically funny. I have caught up with all episodes seasons 1 to present. I hope we have many years of AH to come. I can not wait for the Oliver applies to Ivy League schools.
Although Johnny Sequoyah played Taylor, it was for the pilot only. Meg Donnelly actually plays the Taylor character.
