Premise

James "Jimmy" Chance is a 23-year-old living in the quirky fictional town of Natesville, California who impregnates a serial killer during a one-night stand. Earning custody of his unexpected daughter, Hope, after the mother is sentenced to death, Jimmy relies on his unorthodox but well-intentioned family for support in raising her.

Cast and characters

{{main|List of Raising Hope characters}}

  • Lucas Neff as James "Jimmy" Bon Jovi Chance, Hope's father. A good-natured, wide-eyed 23-year-old who is clueless about raising a child and everything else. Jimmy goes to Howdy's Market in Natesville to get items for baby Hope, where he meets Sabrina.
  • Martha Plimpton as Virginia Slims Chance (née Thompson), Hope's paternal grandmother, Jimmy's mother, and Burt's wife. Virginia became pregnant with Jimmy at age fifteen, delivering him when she was sixteen. Virginia works as a maid, cleaning houses of upper-class people while the Chances appear to live just above the poverty line.
  • Garret Dillahunt as Engleburt "Burt" Jebbidiah Chance, Hope's paternal grandfather, Jimmy's father, and Virginia's husband. Burt conceived Jimmy with Virginia when he was seventeen. He has a lawn care/pool cleaning business with Jimmy as his assistant.

  • Cloris Leachman as Barbara June "Maw Maw" Thompson (recurring season 1, starring seasons 2–4), Virginia's 84-year-old grandmother, Jimmy's great-grandmother, and Hope's great-great-grandmother.

  • Gregg Binkley as Barney Hughes (recurring season 1, starring seasons 2–4), Manager of the store where Jimmy and Sabrina work.

Reception

Raising Hope has received positive reviews from critics. On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the show's first season holds a 87% based on 38 reviews, with an average score of 6.7/10. The website's consensus reads, "Thanks to a talented and well-matched cast, Raising Hope largely manages to balance crude, absurdist humor with moments of charm without languishing in one or exploiting the other."{{Cite web |title=Raising Hope: Season 1 |url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/raising-hope/s01 |access-date=September 23, 2024 |website=Rotten Tomatoes}} On Metacritic, the season holds an weighted average score of 75 out of 100 on Metacritic based on 24 critics' reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".{{cite web|url=https://www.metacritic.com/tv/raising-hope|title=Raising Hope – Season 1 Reviews, Ratings, Credits, and More|publisher=Metacritic|access-date=August 17, 2012}}

Tom Gliatto of People Weekly called the show the best new sitcom of the season, favorably comparing it to Malcolm in the Middle. Mary McNamara of the Los Angeles Times was lukewarm towards the show, stating that "Raising Hope is funny, sweet, occasionally provocative, and occasionally over-the-top in a regrettable way." James Poniewozik of Time Magazine was upbeat, stating that "Neff is amiably charming, Dillahunt and Plimpton give their characters a realism that belies the pilot's often-contemptuous jokes, and maybe 20% of the first episode shows a sweet-heartedness that rises above the easy white-trash humor." While not all of the reviews were positive, they were mostly positive by the end of the first season. Much of the show's praise went to the performances of Martha Plimpton and Garret Dillahunt.{{cite web|url=https://www.metacritic.com/tv/raising-hope/season-1/critic-reviews|title=Critic Reviews for Raising Hope Season 1|publisher=Metacritic|date=October 22, 2010|access-date=August 17, 2012}}

The second season received critical acclaim on Rotten Tomatoes with a 100% based on 11 reviews, with an average score of 7/10. The consensus reads, "Raising Hope nurses a winsome sweetness in an improved second season that shears off the comedic bits that didn't work while expounding upon the blue collar charm and gleaming heart that lured viewers in."{{Cite web |title=Raising Hope: Season 2 |url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/raising-hope/s02 |access-date=September 23, 2024 |website=Rotten Tomatoes}} Matt Roush of TV Guide called the show in his season 2 review "A treat for anyone who loves a good call-back to classic sitcoms."{{cite web|author=Matt Roush|url=https://www.metacritic.com/tv/raising-hope/season-2/critic-reviews |title=Critic Reviews for Raising Hope Season 2|publisher=Metacritic|date=September 20, 2011|access-date=August 17, 2012}}
