The show wasn't bad, it just wasn't good. Super generic and boring. Some laughs, too much predictable boring shit. NBC was trying to copy CBS and make boring shitty sitcoms that appeal to "everybody". They just don't have the momentum CBS does to make godawful dogshit like "The Millers" become a hit.

Wife and I watched Friends with Better Lives to make up for the loss of HIMYM. It was OK. We laughed. Seemed the whole show was just raunchy sex jokes, some of which I was surprised they could air on network TV. Overall I liked it but not going to lose sleep that its canceled.

My wife was really upset over Revolution. I was really pleased because she made me watch that show and it was the worst show I've ever seen.

Dear JJ,

LOST ended. You wrote a shitty ending. Stop trying to recreate the wheel.

Love,

PS. Please use less lens flares in the next Star Trek movie, it's really distracting and shitty.

I've never seen an episode of any of those shows. I'm not sure how it happened, but I am pretty much not interested in any show that's on the big 4 networks these days. If it's on HBO/Showtime/FX/AMC I'm interested, if it's on NBC/Fox/CBS/ABC I don't even give it any consideration most of the time. The only network show I have watched in many years is Survivor.

He probably still watches The Challenge.

The Crazy Ones getting the axe irritates me. I kind of expected it because its CBS and they do stupid shit like this, but still, there was some top notch comedy gold in this show. Especially when Brad Garrett showed up. Fuckin CBS.

You know The Crazy Ones was the one with Robin Williams, right? I don't think you do, because you just insinuated it was anything but awful.

Parks and Recreation

Definitely the best comedy on tv now, contender for evar

P&R rules.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is new and pretty great.

Community had 2 really good seasons sandwiched around an absolutely great season(2).

Hannibal is supposed to be amazing. I haven't watched it but folks I trust love it.

Bob's Burgers is outstanding. Started good and became great. Folks who say otherwise are retarded assholes who suck cock by choice.

New Girl is solid. Sometimes absolutely hilarious. First 2 seasons are funnier than the latest one, but it's still good.

Why yes, I do know it's the awesome comedy with Robin Williams. Are you sure you know which one? I can't imagine you'd watch something that you think is aweful, yet you'd have to watch it to know it's aweso er...aweful. In all seriousness, I know that the first few episodes, like many shows finding their footing, were not great. But they did find their rhythm for some memorable laughs.

I tried to watch P&R when it first came out and it was the shittiest fucking shit I've ever seen. I heard it got way better, but because of season 1 they are forever on my do not watch list.

Yeah I bailed pretty quick(2-3 episodes). It wasn't bad like early P&R where it had funny people and occasional funny jokes, I saw no hope whatsoever. I'd say it was the laziest and least funny slop in recent memory except Dads was on the air and 2 Broke Girls still is.

So I didn't see any Brad Garrett episodes, I'd try them but doesn't seem like much point now.

I'm not Googling it, but I swear I've read that the producers even told potential new viewers to skip season one because they didn't feel like it represented their show.

Damn I'm a little sad Community got canceled. I had hopes they can turn it around.

doesnt Arrow count as broadcast TV? because arrow is the best godamned network tv show i have seen in years.

Don't watch often because I hate Zooey, but I know in the first season they had some absolutely great shows. Tried to watch a couple times since her and that guy hooked up and it was kinda lame.
