I reckon it would make a better partner for Old Christine. Bring back my TBBT/HIMYM hour! Agreed. It wasn't horrible. I thought it would be. I can see the potential if it allows itself to get wacky. Possibly, paired with Christine, it would be better... The one thing that i thought was off was how horrible the old boyfriend was to the kid who knocked up JE's character...it made almost no sense that she would pull aside Grant Show's character and not the kid...

Didn't really get any laughs out of me. Of course, I'll keep watching it just because it's on between HIMYM and 2.5 Men. Who knows, pilots usually suck, so maybe it'll get better.

I found the apartment set to be reminiscent Darhma & Egg and the office set to be reminiscent of News Radio. The plot is reminiscent of the 500+ rip-offs of the Odd Couple made over the past 25 years.

I'd say most of my laughs were derived from her.

This show had some laughs but the pnly emotion it invoked in me was mainly dissapointmet for the fact that Ashley Jensen left Ugly Betty for this... And I know comedies don't need to be rooted in reality, but the whole first episode moves from one absurd thing to another. The moving in and how the guy reacts to the news... Damn.

But I think Jenna is funny because of the skit above. Since I dont watch Ugly Betty anymore, it is a treat to have Ashley Jensen on this show.

Actually, I found the whole show to be kind of annoying, and I loved Dharma & Greg. I'll give it another shot in a few weeks.

This week it was the lowest. * "Big Bang Theory" is, at least for the moment, now TV's top sitcom, up last night 28% from its 2008 premiere * "House," up 14% from its 2008 premiere, gave Fox its first-ever opening-night-of-the-fall-season win, according to the Hollywood Reporter. * Weevil Navarro > Chuck Bass. CW darling "Gossip Girl" pulled 2.1 million total viewers last night, while the final season of the CW's "Veronica Mars" averaged 2.5 million viewers three seasons back. * President Barack Obama's appearance on "Letterman" drew 7 million viewers, the biggest audience for "The Late Show" since Dave and Oprah patched things up on air four years ago.
