I thought this show would be stupid as fuck, but it's pretty intelligent.

Portia de Rossi's character is great in this.

I've seen a few episodes of this and it has a lot of potential. I still feel it needs a few more episodes to find its groove.

Yeah, just enough for ABC to cancel it.

Yeah, networks are way too trigger happy with cancellations.

I think it would be better in an hour format.

show returned with a new epi this week; very funny.

hoping this gains some traction. we need some intelligent sitcoms and this fits the bill.
