It was alright, but I always hate watching shows when the execs start airing shit out of order.

I actually thought this ended up funnier than Up All Night this week. My Wife and I watched UAN and the entire time she kept saying "this isn't realistic! Who babysits at 10pm!" lol (yes we have a kid)

Another week without laughs. I hate giving up on a show so quickly, but this one is nearing the top of my "cut" list pretty rapidly.

Some new shoes do this. They try and put the 'best' episodes up front so they don't lose any viewers. Worked with Happy Endings...but with most shows, they know they have duds.

I'd say pulled by late October.

This episode started off slow, but I was enjoying it by the end.. especially when Alex learned the girls were hookers

But things look pretty bleak for fellow new NBC comedy Free Agents (1.3/4, 3.9 million) which lost almost half of its Up All Night (2.3/7, 6.1 million) lead-in and is inching ever closer to cancellation.

Ouch. This may not last long.
