I'm out. I find Olivia Munn's overacting painful and as much as I love Kyle Bornheimer, there isn't enough great laughs in this one to justify sticking with it... yes this episode was 'the best so far', but I'd equate their 'best' with a lot of other great comedies 'worst'.

I'd be shocked if they don't cancel this show within a week.

This episode was probably the best so far, but Kyle Bornheimer is the only character on the show that I actually like. His wife I can take or leave, and the other four I actively hate. Get rid of the other 2 couples and I'd be more interested in the show.

Is it just me or was this sort of promoted as a starring vehicle for Olivia Munn, and she seems to be the least used of the six stars.

No, just her self promotion sure made it seem like she had a bigger role in the show then she actually does.

Up until her final scene, I was wondering where the hell she was.

She made a comment on Twitter yesterday that this was her favorite episode...and she was in about 2 out of the 22 minutes.

And yes, I follow her on Twitter for some odd reason. I apologize.

Unless you're an old lady, no reason to apologize. Following a hot girl on Twitter is BY FAR not the dumbest/weirdest thing I've ever done.

I've liked the last couple of episodes. Christine Woods is great.

I was wondering why everyone was dumping on Olivia Munn in other threads, but I saw it this ep when she tried to do that little dramatic scene. That was awful. I think she does okay with the broad comedy, though.

I really like the show so far While Munn is the weakest link, she is 1/6th of the ensemble. Plenty of other funny folks to do the heavy lifting.

Woods reaction in the gym to the guy asking her if she wanted a drink was great.

The only time Munn distracts me is when she's in a scene with other people conversing and she sits there looking at them with an over enthusiastic stare. I think a lot of the hate towards her comes from her leaving AOTS.

I like Christine Woods. I don't recall seeing her in anything before.

I find the blond less attractive every week. Something about the bottom half of her face.
