Finally got around to watching the pilot on hulu last night. Way too stagey for me (and as others have said, the laugh-track made it all seem false). I'm disappointed because I love Posey and Ambrose. I thought the show kind of wasted their talent. Hopefully both of them will look for other small screen projects. They'd be much better off doing a show like Samantha Who rather than a sitcom.

Sad. I couldn't even make it through 5 minutes and I adore PP and LA.

I was looking forward to watching this show.
Then I saw it.
Good riddance.
Anybody here predict 3 or under?

The final tally: 3 episodes aired.

What was the point of even making this show?

I'm sure everyone who still remembers that this show ever existed will be SHOCKED to learn it's been cancelled.

If the show weren't on Friday and if it weren't on Fox and if it didn't get death knell ratings and if Amy Sherman-Palladino wasn't declining interview requests I might be inclined to write a post about how the show has promise (with Ambrose and Posey, of course it does) and that the rough, over-caffeinated acting in the first two eps is common to a lot of shows. I would probably even post about how it couldn't hurt to stick with the show because with all the talent...

I was doing dishes, so I couldn't much hear the laugh-track and it didn't bother me. I also couldn't hear much of the lame dialogue, so that didn't bother me either.

All in all, I got a full load of dishes done.

(I admit to having had higher hopes for this show, though)

I actually might've enjoyed it without the laugh track. Instead, I didn't make it halfway through the first episode.

I love Parker Posey as I mentioned earlier in the thread, but after watching those two episodes... Boy, does it suck. First off, the obtrusive laugh track was horribly tacked on, like it was a last minute desperate move to show "Hey look! It's funny!". And second, the show is not funny enough to warrant a laugh track. If they had kept it laughless, they could have possibly sold it as a dramady. I love Lauren Ambrose as well and thought she played her part perfectly for a...

The question is...

will it get the Quarterlife treatment (1 and done) or Viva Laughlin (2 and out)?
