If you gave me a million guesses, I would not have known that was Paul Reiser in that promo poster.

Judy Greer looked a lot less disgusting topless in this than she did in Arrested Development. Way less pixelated too.

I'm just glad Krista Marie Yu is not playing a teenager anymore.

It's already a show on it's second season called Fboy Island. Nikki Glaser is the host.

And I'm enjoying Reboot, so far.

Re: Reboot (Hulu) - S: Key, Greer, Reiser, Knoxville, Bloom, Yu, Worthy - premieres 9/20/22

This show caught me by surprise, between this thread and of course Hulu making it a suggestion that I might want to watch I went ahead and started it up last night. I ended up partway through the third episode before I had to go to sleep. It is surprisingly a pretty decent show and the cast is great. Also, bits of dialogue like the assistant to the showrunners asking which parking space is Reiser's car in and his saying it is the space with the one that has a Bentley in it made me laugh. Judy Greer has long been a fave actress of mine and many others but not just because she looks great (but I admit to saying to myself, wow, Judy is quite gorgeous when she is briefly shown topless). Finally, it dawned on me that Krista Marie Yu is the actress that I enjoyed seeing on Home Improvement and in other parts she has had before this show. She looked different but great on this show, I like her new look.

I will end up finishing this up this week.

ETA: The AV Club review says it premiered with two episodes, so maybe I finished up the second episode and thought I started up the third but actually had to watch something else until the next ep airs.
Another ETA: Someone posted in the comments on the AV Club that it was a 3 ep premiere, so maybe not my imagination that I was partway into watching the 3rd ep before going to sleep, lol!

Looks like Hulu has done it again. For the longest time I didn’t think they had much in the way or original shows, but now it’s like every 6 weeks there is something I really want to see.

This looks great.

The writers room in episode 3 was a great way of showing how nostalgia and current thinking do not mix. The resolution was perfect as was the execution. Yeah, humor has changed but some jokes are timeless.

I was like, how old could she have been if she was on Home Improvement?

My kids are rewatching the Disney Channel series "Austin and Ally" right now so it's weird seeing Calum Worthy here.

Interestingly, they are reusing the set from that for the Step Right Up set.

This is amazing. So many hilarious scenes. Paul Reiser is great. This has a very Episodes feel to it. I also appreciate that Judy Greer showed her amazing assets.

This is, by far, the funniest new show I’ve seen in a long, long time. Pure gold.

Had no intention of watching this, but was bored, and it popped up as a suggestion.

Episode 1 was funny and kept my interest. I’ll gladly watch more.

When they were listing reboots, they mentioned How I Met Your Father. Sorry, not a reboot. How does Hulu not know their own show is a spinoff?

And Judy Greer…nice haha

Love Eliza Coupe. I always like her comedy.

This was great - I am a huge fan of Rachel Bloom but the whole cast is outstanding. Love how meta it was right from the beginning and everyone is really bringing it.

this show is surprisingly good. I even like the old writers, the lady cracked me up a few times with her one-liners. Interesting premise too. I don't think I ever saw Johnny Knocksville act before and it's nice to see he has some talent as he does some pretty stupid stuff from what I understand.

I really like this show as well. Didn’t take long to click. Just instant spark. Love the dynamic, hilarity and seems like a real behind the scenes of a show. Very good, smart humor. Judy Greer is like the soul of the show. She seems to carry it and everyone else seems secondary around her, but everyone so good and gel so well. Paul Reiser is in everything these days. This, The Boys, Stranger Things. He’s become so good. Way beyond his sitcom roots.

Really funny and most importantly fun show.

E6 was pretty good. Hopefully it works out for Hannah with her love interest.

"That could absolutely make a lot of people feel uncomfortable."
"So could Tony Danza's cock."



I'm still enjoying this show a good bit, hope it sticks around but I gotta imagine they expected more chatter about it than it actually seems to be getting.

Dammit. Not the Reboot I was hoping for.

Until I clicked on this thread, I had just assumed that's what it was! A Reboot reboot!
