Synopsis:



So who is coming back for seconds? I thought the Pilot was just okay, but I will give this another go around.

Jimmy James

I'm in for at least the episodes until 30 Rock debuts this season.

cdollaz

This is their last shot to impress me. If it's remotely as shitty as last week, I'm out.

Goat3001

I thought the premiere was promising. It takes some sitcoms a few episodes to really hit it's stride so I'm back for another round.

starseed1981

Count me in as one who thought the premiere showed alot of promise. This is pretty much the only new show i'm watching this year.

spamurai

Excellent cast, below average premiere. Hope it delivers this time.

stingermck

Is this the funny episode?

Geofferson

Agreed.

MrX

Much better than the pilot IMO

Chevy Chase is awesome

"What is she, a water filter?"

Lateralus

Much much better than last week, their presentation was great!

Drav3n

agreed, alot funnier than last weeks episode

Jimmy James

I'm still a bit concerned about the premise of the show. I have no idea where they're taking this over the longer term. With that said, I thought it was very solid. I'll continue to tune in.

Snowmaker

Damn, forgot to set the DVR for the season. Is this re-airing, or do I have to Hulu it?

Vast improvement from last week, and I enjoyed last week's episode quite a bit. Hoping this show sticks around.

cdollaz

Didn't really laugh once, so I'm done with this show. Big fan of The Soup and Joel, but I've never liked Chevy Chase and none of the characters are funny.

calhoun07

This show to me is like a dry comedy. Not to compare the comedy style to Wes Anderson, but Wes Anderson directs comedies that I think are hilarious and I never laugh once during them. Dry sitcoms are like that for me...I rarely laugh yet I enjoy the hell out of them.

Jimmy James

I agree that this is meant to be dry, but I don't think this episode was really intended to be all that funny in the first place. I think they're still trying to set up the show's premise. The bit with the presentation was the only really obvious comedy if you ask me.

BTW, I laughed hard in Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums. The Life Aquatic...not so much. I still haven't gotten through The Darjeeling Limited.

malichai

I thought it was an improvement. I think I'm just about hooked. That non-highfive at the beginning had me rolling.

Boba Fett

Why aren't Ken Jeong's fifteen minutes of fame up yet?

Draven

I thought this was a fine episode, but I'm laughing at the people that say it was a big improvement over last week. It was EXACTLY the same as last week (and I enjoyed the premiere.)

While I was watching it, I was thinking "boy the DVD Talkers are going to hate this." There is absolutely no consistency with the criticism. For those that feel this way, what exactly was so much better? Because I saw the same show with the same characters behaving in the same way.

My Other Self

I knew most people here wouldn't like tonight's episode either but I enjoyed. I like the characters, the premise, and the stories so far. I'm in for the long haul.

Sex Fiend

I thought there were some funny bits, but so far it strikes me as trying a little too hard to fit into The Office mold, especially with the potential relationship stuff. A lot of very forced "awww, that's sweet" stuff there in the first two episodes. I think the show would do a lot better to abandon the romance angle and stick to straight-up comedic situations. It seems to have some potential in that regard. Why do we need to have some bittersweet romantic entanglement between two main characters in every sit-com these days?

Gizmo

Aimee Mann...damn you Joel you found my weakness!!!

sven

Because he's hilarious.

+1

I enjoyed it about as much as last week and thought I would come here to read how those who said they would give it one more shot were done with it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I just didn't see a major difference myself.

My favorite parts were the Amiee Mann montage and the Spanish teacher rant. Besides McHale the only cast member of the group that I find funny is the neurotic chick.
