'Til Death season 3 discussion

I know this show doesn't get much play around here but I've always enjoyed it. Unfortunatly it looks like they've written the Woodcocks out of the show, they were probably my second favorite things on the show. I guess it was obvious that they were on there way out late last season with the addition of JB Smoove.

While I would have preferred if this was cancelled and Back To You was brought back, I've seen the first couple of episodes of this season since my wife likes it, and I have to say that I don't miss the Woodcocks at all. I like the addition of JB Smoove, but quite honestly the neighbors were always the weakest link of the show to me.

I'll miss Steph Woodcock (Kat Foster) because I thought she was kinda hot in terms of looks and personality character-wise).

I liked that the show was originally playing of the differences between and older married couple and a newly married couple. That dynamic is completely gone now.

'Til Death isn't bad but I watched it last week and I wondered why Back At You was canceled and not this. I mean if they're going to keep TD on they might as well bring back Grammar and the gang. Or at the very least cancel this one too.

Also, I guess I didn't notice the retooling of the show. I totally forgot they had a nice young white couple living next door. Oh Shit! Wait! Wasn't the Neighbor wife a really hot chick? Damn man! There used to be 2 nice looking women on the show now there's only 1.

Anyway, his new Black buddy is ok, but that guy's voice works my nerves.

I enjoyed the first two seasons, but once I watched the first of season 3 and read that the Woodcocks were gone...well yeah, it basically destroyed the point of the show, and I didn't find it as funny. JB Smoove's character was alright in small doses, but now that he's on every episode and there's no Jeff and Steph...yeah I'm done.

I love me some JB Smoove but do miss Jeff and Steph... last night's ep was pretty terrible IMO with Kenny being the only decent part.

I hated the addition of the old little brother and once I heard they were getting rid of Finch and the hottie, the decision to delete the series recording off the DVR scheduler was easy to make. It's almost as if FOX is trying to kill this show.

It just isn't funny without the neighbors, were they written out of the show or are they just gone without explanation? I liked the interaction between the two couples, not the (now) three main characters.

I think I'm done with the show.

They should have kept the War at Home on the air.

And apparently they have some left over episodes that were shot last year WITH JEFF AND STEPH that will be aired as part of Season 3...so that's even worse IMO.

I just noticed they were gone, lol , i thought they were just having a few eps without them

Whilst i like Kenny, it was the contrast between the couples which made the show

I'm glad the Woodcocks are gone. They added nothing to show whatsoever (not this is top-quality stuff to begin with) and the wife was insanely annoying. Everytime she opened her mouth and said something I just wished I was there in person to hit it and then knock her teeth in.

Quoted for truth. This show had enough funny moments that we stuck with it through the first 2 seasons. I still remember the promo ads that aired ahead of the Pilot- The Newlywed couple with Steph lovingly picking up Jeff's socks left on the bedroom floor. And, the not-so-newlywed couple with Joley Fischer picking up Brad Garett's socks and then stuffing into his snoring mouth. There were a few others, all of them playing up the differences between the 2 couples. Now, that contrast is tossed out.

I thought it was odd that the Woodcocks weren't in either of the 2 Season 3 episodes that have aired so far. Now that I know they're gone for good, so is my Season Pass. The idea that a forgotten Little Brother from a few decades back would become the new best friend, with his awfully annoying ex-wife and dog suddenly also taking up screen time is just silly. Now, it looks like we'll have office antics with Joely Fischer's co-workers instead of antics in the teacher's lounge? Yeah, I'm done, too.

Yeah, Leon is good in small doses, the skating thing and the car had me but I don't want anything to do with his ex-wife and dog. The new co-workers were terrible and I hope they were just a one off.

Just watched the last two episodes..not bad. Though dropping the neighbors and teaching stuff sucks. Eh.

Do Not Disturb however, it just plain awful. My god.

Wow, this show is a mess. First show last night they bring in a new daughter who was terrible, and for some strange reason Kenny lives with them now. The second episode must have been in the can from last season because the Woodcock's made a re-appearance.

With the loss of the Woodcocks, and now the new annoying actress playing the daughter, I'm officially done with this show.
