I think they were positioned as opposite ends of the spectrum for any potential new viewers. Begin with the over-the-top crowd pleaser, close with the quiet character piece and watch how we pull both off with ease.

^^ agree that that's how they came off, but apparently they were going to show the conspiracy episode instead of the zombie one until the network remembered that the conspiracy one is full of people fake-shooting each other.

there is no turning back in an art game? (reddening), Friday, 14 January 2011 04:59 (thirteen years ago) link

did they show rape episodes of all the cop shows that usually feature murders, too? or one of the occasional 'we handle child abductions too' episodes?

idk u would have to check with their showrunner on twitter.

She's done a lot of commercials over the years.

That was a little on the nose, but still hilarious.

oh man, for a second there all the shipper bones in my body were crying in happiness

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:27 (thirteen years ago) link

SPOILER FREE

I knew when Jeff was running in the rain that he was going where he was going, because going to that other person would be to cheesy/sentimental even for this show.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:28 (thirteen years ago) link

also, MEZZANINE?!!

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:28 (thirteen years ago) link

so, perfect couples...

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:29 (thirteen years ago) link

what's worse: a terrible single camera sitcom or a terrible multi-camera sitcom? i theorize that the best single camera sitcom is always better than the best multi-camera sitcom, but that even the worst multi-camera sitcom is more tolerable than a bad single camera sitcom.

re: Perfect Couples

I think I've grown to absolutely despise Olivia Munn.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:31 (thirteen years ago) link

is that the waitress from it's always sunny?

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:31 (thirteen years ago) link

it is!!!

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:32 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah, I knew she was going to be in this (and the other brunette is the pregnant agent from Flash Forward).

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:33 (thirteen years ago) link

This is the pilot, right? It's really trying too hard.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:39 (thirteen years ago) link

probably for the best. i feel like if there was a little less noise this would be even worse

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:40 (thirteen years ago) link

so the one relationship has a tempestuous hate/sex relationship, the other the wife is a controlling shrew, and the third couple is the straight-man?

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:41 (thirteen years ago) link

Interested to see how this does, because the shows we all hate seem to end up being rather popular with the unwashed masses.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:43 (thirteen years ago) link

i don't know about that. i hated Hank and they cancelled that. also there was that really terrible relationship show recently that i can't even remember the name of that was terrible and swiftly gone

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:45 (thirteen years ago) link

Is "100 Questions" the worst show in recent history?

man this show is bad. how do some shows get everything so wrong?

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:48 (thirteen years ago) link

not community...

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:48 (thirteen years ago) link

they forgot to write joekz

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:48 (thirteen years ago) link

i feel like a laugh track could help this show bc then i'd know which lines i'm supposed to laugh at

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:49 (thirteen years ago) link

there's a couples show on abc inbetween the shows i like on wed. night and its bad like this. both shows have normal scary people as leads. like people from commercials.

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:49 (thirteen years ago) link

"does your dead mom's window open or not?" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:49 (thirteen years ago) link

sitcoms made by normal unfunny people. they are so bad.

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:50 (thirteen years ago) link

"Everbody Hurts"--NOOOOOOO!

Your cousin, Marvin Cobain (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 21 January 2011 01:51 (thirteen years ago) link

wow, can they show that much nipple on network television?

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:51 (thirteen years ago) link

so glad that jenna elfman show isn't on anymore. i felt compelled to watch it for some reason. just horrible. i can't watch the william shatner one either.

i must confess i often skip community to watch big bang theory. but i will see all the communities eventually. on one of those nights when they show like six in a row.

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:52 (thirteen years ago) link

i'm shocked that you find bbt funnier than community, scott. have u seen the bbt w/out laugh track vid that was going around for a bit?

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:53 (thirteen years ago) link

mike and molly is terrible too. poor swoosie kurtz. she deserves so much more in life.

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:53 (thirteen years ago) link

i can't help it! i like both of them. big bang theory isn't as good lately. but i still like it.

no i didn't see show without laugh track.

scott seward, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:54 (thirteen years ago) link

they did basically this exact same joke (all the dressed people in the bedroom while one dude is naked) in friends with chandler in a bathtub

Wilco & Feist...

the "i'm not that cool" speech lifted from brita telling annie "i'm not that cool," this house destruction to feel better scene ripped directly from HIMYM

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:57 (thirteen years ago) link

there has not been a single original moment in this show, and like someone pointed out before, the 3 different couples premise is a direct lift from Better With You

Mordy, Friday, 21 January 2011 01:57 (thirteen years ago) link

i don't think i ever noticed how handsome troy is on community until the bar episode! he is really handsome. i just never looked at him very closely or something.

i didn't know that he had a band called childish gambino either. in real life.
