Anybody else watch this new show premier on FX tonight? Quite possibly the funniest show on TV right now, definitely in my top 3.

I guess that whole thing about all of the good writers coming to TV is true, because between this show and Dog Bites Man, this is the best summer of new comedy shows I can ever remember.

I just called a friend of mine to watch the replay of this and told him the same exact thing. I really cannot remember ever laughing harder at a TV show in my life. I am definately impressed with this show.

Hasn't this show been on for at least a season so far?

not saying anything negative but im pretty sure I've been drunk and seen a few episodes of the show. Since it's shot in Philly I had alot of those "i've been there" moments.

I thought there were previous episodes and I guess this is the second season, according to imdb. http://imdb.com/title/tt0472954/ I watched an episode with the dad and the strippers... wasn't all that impressed. I gave it a Season Pass because I know it's easy to write a "different" show off as bad with only one episode.

Given that FX begins advertising shows on a 10 commercial-per-hour basis 3-4 months out, I've usually seen all the jokes by the time the show airs.

Charlie has quickly become one of my favorite characters on TV.

I like this but I don't find myself LOLing like The Office. It's still entertaining, if not 100% relateable.

The asian kid with the flip flops was hilarious in the basketball episode.

You got me a diet soda?I need to be on a DIET?
