FRIENDS WITH BETTER LIVES is a romantic comedy about six friends at different stages in their lives - married, divorced, newly engaged and single - who are outwardly happy, but secretly questioning if their friends have it better. Andi (Majandra Delfino) and Bobby (Kevin Connolly) are happily married with two kids but at times long for the days they had less responsibility and more fun; Will (James Van Der Beek) is newly single and preaching the bachelor lifestyle, but still pining for his ex-wife; Jules (Brooklyn Decker) and Lowell (Rick Donald) are high on their passionate new relationship; and Kate (Zoe Lister Jones) has a successful career but may take a swan dive into the L.A. River when she finds out her last remaining single friend, Jules, just got engaged. When it comes to relationships, these six friends are finding it a challenge to look at each other without wondering... who really has the better life? Dana Klein and Aaron Kaplan are executive producers for Twentieth Century Fox Television. Emmy Award winner James Burrows directed the pilot.

I'll give it a shot, but the promo ads for it didn't do much to impress me.

Yea... I'm in only for The Beek. I'm not expecting much.

Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
I liked Connolly on Entourage, he seems like a good fit for this type of show, if it works.

Previews kinda look funny. Hope it's good.

Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
Is it weird that Bob Saget is doing a voice over on this?

Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
Maybe.
CBS hasn't renewed a Midseason comedy since Rules of Engagement so I may not bother. Wait, laugh track, I'm out. |
Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
It was... alright. The Australian guy is really annoying. I got a good laugh with the short man reveal. I thought Brooklyn Decker used to be hot? Not so much anymore. I thought E's wife was better looking over all.

Gotta admit, I was so pissed at the HIMYM finale, I erased this from my DVR and didn't bother.

Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
I kept expecting Van Der Beek to be playing himself like he did in Don't Trust the B. :)
It was pretty funny. I might watch some more. |

Horrible. Can't writers actually be creative anymore and do something other than 7th grade level over the top sex jokes? The breast pump thing was ridiculous.

Some appealing performers ...... maybe next time out they can get on something called <i>Friends with Better Writers</i> ....

Do the characters all live together? Hanging out in that living room all the time makes it seem like they do.

Standard forced situations, and as of yet unlikeable characters. I'll give it another episode or two to see what happens. |
Re: Friends With Better Lives (CBS) - Season 1 Thread
I couldn't make it through the whole thing. It all just felt too forced. Even on a sitcom level I couldn't suspend belief that these characters were real people who exist for any reason other than to supply jokes... and not very good ones, at that.
