avelanch Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 meh...looks like generic, rehashed sitcom fodder. i'm going to reserve judgement until I see an actual episode. rebel wilson always delivers, and ABC sucks at editing their commercials, so hopefully it turns out good.

inane Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 So far I've gotten more laughs out of Brooklyn Nine-Nine than I thought I would. Don't know if you can sustain that over a whole season though. Andy Samberg usually works best in small doses. Got through about 10 minutes... it seems so forced and not that funny.

TigerWilliams Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Got through about 10 minutes... it seems so forced and not that funny. ^^ That's pretty much word-for-word what I wrote to Team 1040 management about the Bro Jake show.Yeah, I'm not saying it's comedy gold or anything. At least it's not a fat-guy-living-in-suburbs-with-hilarious-family sitcom.If that ain't faint praise, I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyville88 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm worried that the Michael J Fox show will get off to a shaky start... Mean!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOB for MVP Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Brooklyn Nine Nine and Sleepy Hollow were absolutely brutal, neither will last more than one season, I can guarantee that. Goldbergs was okay, for someone who wasn't around in the 80s, some of the humour was lost on me. I really enjoyed the Blacklist, I think it will be a good show. Dads has its moments, Ive enjoyed it two weeks in a row. Mom was alright, but its from the same producers as 2.5 Men and Big Bang, so I will have to give it another go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckofSteel Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 maybe super fun night... the lead actress is really funny in everything i've seen her in. Super Fun Night got trashed in early reviews, what was most disappointing is that they made Rebel Wilson talk in an American accent. I think I may pass from what I heard.

CanuckofSteel Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Anything other than MJF show that I should offer any passing interest to? The Blacklist, haven't seen but heard great things. The Trophy Wife, gives a Modern Family like feel and stars Malin Akerman. The first episode wasn't bad. Brooklyn Nine-Nine, has Andy Samberg but also has Andre Braugher. So far I have laughed a lot, but I'm not one of those people that hates Samberg. Is a very funny show though. Sleepy Hollow, good show to check out especially since Halloween is close by. Of course it's unrealistic and somethings are going to be absurd, but it is still a very fun watch. Pretty entertaining show. Others that have gotten positive feedback: MJF Show The Crazy Ones- Robin Williams returns to TV Welcome To The Family Back in the Game- stars James Caan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dads has its moments, Ive enjoyed it two weeks in a row. Mom was alright, but its from the same producers as 2.5 Men and Big Bang, so I will have to give it another go Lol Sleepy Hollow and Brooklyn Nine-Nine have been getting some pretty good reviews. Brooklyn Nine-Nine holds a 90% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and 70/100 on Metacritic. Sleepy Hollow garnered a 8/10 from IMDB and has had strong ratings. While The Goldbergs has received negative feedback from people the reviewers seem to enjoy it more. I personally can't stand the show after 1 episode. The Blacklist is considered to be one of the best new shows on TV. Dads has been absolutely blasted and will probably not even survive past October. I have heard nothing but bad things about the show. Mom has gotten some mixed to positive feedback, still up in the air with that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckofSteel Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Just finished watching the series premier of Hostages and I thought it was pretty meh. It has a good story, but it would be a better for a movie than a TV show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's What She Said Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Had high hopes for Agents of SHIELD, but the pilot was awful. Will give it one or two episodes before I give up on it. Brooklyn Nine Nine was alright, not exactly can't-miss TV but I'll watch it if I have nothing better to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KFBR392 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Brooklyn nine nine is funny. Not hilarious, but it's funny. I think it's got potential, considering most shows generally get better in seasons 2-3. If you're not a fan of Andy Samberg you won't like the show since its entirely based around his kind of humor. I've been a fan of him for awhile, but can I easily see why others may not find him funny. Dads was awful. I got about 15 minutes into it and had to shut it off. It's a shame, because it's actually got some actors that I generally like in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
