Up All Night is so disappointingly safe. It's a fun watch and I liked the first season but there's nothing experimental or edgy about it at all. I mean, if you're on NBC and going to bomb anyway why not take more risks? Do we need more sitcoms with uptight type-A women and goofy sarcastic men? There's also
