I have wanted to talk about this show forever. This show is AGGRESSIVELY terrible. First of all, apparently the biggest sin in the world is being a very rich stay at home mom who is slightly snobby, instead of just a moderately rich stay at home mom who is a complete bitch. The main character is awful in every way.

I love mom and wish it was back in the rotation, because it's very clearly the pinnacle of Chuck Lorre. It's a lot better than some of the other stuff covered here…

Mark's whole point was to be the "wtf" straight man, but he played it like everyone's stupidity annoyed him, and that he was somehow above it (and an asshole). When they replaced him with Adam Scott, who played it with genuine incredulity and had a bunch of personality quirks of his own was a 100000% improvement.

You could definitely tell in the tweeting sketch that the acting breaks and asides were meant to be a part of something that received a lot more laughter than it did. In fact, in the beginning, it seemed to be like the actors were reacting to nothing at all, until the entire audience broke out its forced fake laugh

I don't know how literally anyone thought that Glenn died. This show very graphically shows you when a character dies, and when a main character dies they basically hold him or her a funeral on talking dead. This show also never wastes an opportunity with a main character's death. In no universe was the show going

The cast does not save this show, in my opinion. I want to like it, but despite the "innovative" (see: stupid) four stories every episode, everything I've seen has been pretty formulaic, and they're trying to go for that heartwarming "lessons-learned-this-show-has-heart" crap that Modern Family executes to much, much

Glenn is not dead. I'm not saying this because I don't think it's a good story choice, or whatever, but this show knows what it's doing in terms of how to draw ratings and make people freak out. The eventual deaths of Glenn, Maggie, Carol, Daryl, Rick, or Carl will come at a midseason or season finale, because that

Calling Undateable mediocre is being very, very generous.

I was thinking about that, but they didn't seem to have any motives other than "hack people to pieces and take some back as slaves"

This was the best episode of the entire show, in my opinion. Other than Morgan being annoying. They're hacking people to pieces but he wants to knock them out and tie them up so they can….. what, exactly?

Seriously, this show is Citizen Kane compared to the tripe that is Gotham.

While the Mindy Park thing is a bit egregious, they had an Indian actor who dropped out 3 weeks before shooting began and they just had to find SOMEONE, so they get somewhat of a pass on that.

No, personally I don't think Gotham got any better at all. I think it's a dismal train wreck of terrible acting, plotting, characterization, and storylines. However, they're giving it better ratings than this, and I feel like they've just decided that this is a bad show and they don't want to like it.

I really don't think this show is that bad. It's not great, but in my opinion it is MILES above Gotham's first couple of episodes, which were seriously some of the worst television I've ever seen. That being said, it is doing pretty terrible in the ratings, so, I don't think it'll be around that long.

I'm with you. How is this show getting a C- and Gotham getting Bs? Gotham! Life in Pieces is a massive schlock-fest and it's getting decent reviews. This show really isn't that bad, in my opion.

To be fair, that twin stuff is very different in the real show and he knows exactly where he is and stuff.

I disagree with the B. I get that it's a pilot, but it clearly is trying to be one of those cutesy "message" shows that is just not appealing. That montage at the end was ridiculous and terribly trite. It's not like we had a reason to get there, either, the whole funeral scene was maybe 5 minutes long, I don't need

The girl and the "leader" will be white, and any sort of teen romance subplot will be between them. One of the guys will be a nerd AND a minority.

This sounds terrible and ridiculously different from the original.

Personally, I think this show would be a lot better as small-town Stephen King-esque horror, instead of something that somehow has national security implications.
