I have no idea if it’s just a first-season finale or a series finale, but the new August 7 episode of ABC’s Bob Saget comedy Surviving Suburbia is the last of 13 episodes ordered for the current season.

During “No Reception,” Steve encourages his wife Anne to rebel against her parents after they use the cell phones the Pattersons gave them too much, I suppose by calling all of the time.
