The second episode is supposed to be even better, not that it matters - it bombed last night, naturally. Got a 3.9/6 in the overnights (though it did build on
its Scrubs lead-in)

I liked it just fine. But a good comedy on ABC never lasts so just can't get too into it or it will surely get yanked before you know it.

sad? why?She is painfully cutesy and sucks any humour from all the scenes she's in. |

I loved the pilot. Should be a good ride - you know, for the 6 episodes that air before it's cancelled.

I enjoyed it. And the description of the lead as Don Draper's grandson was spot on.

I quite liked this. The lead is subtly sexy and the supporting cast is great. Not in love with yet another wise beyond her years child but they have a good
father/daughter dynamic. I also really like the product tester lady. Cute chemistry. Portia is AMAZING. Such a different character from AD and it suits her
well. I like the work environment too as stories can come about virtually anything.

So what's the main consensus on this show? I'm deciding whether to give it any of my time. |

I was disappointed and it didn't interest me enough to watch again.
But, take that opinion with a grain of salt, because I am extremely picky with sitcoms. Case in point - let alone this one, at the moment there are none that I watch. |

I thought it was a very clever -- if not out-loud funny -- show. Portia De Rossi rocks in ten different ways. "Hi Phil! I hear you're blinking
again."

I was mildly amused by this.

Its a great show...
however, the history of the success of single camera comedies does not bode well for it I think The Office & 30 Rock may be the only ones that have lasted... oh, Earl is still on... but I'm sure it's only because they force $cientologists to watch it to keep the ratings up... poor suckers |

I thought it was great. I love me most single-cam shows. Portia was amazing. The lead is charming and sexy in an almost intangible way.

Thought it was ok at best, but it has a lot of potential, so I'll probably watch as long as it's on.

I quite like this show.
Which means it will get cancelled and replaced with a show like Two and a Half Men. >blech< |

I like it too. It's very, very cleaver. I didn't get from the previews that Ted would actually be likeable. He's very likable. I wonder why
they hid that in the previews? Portia de Rossi is hilarious. The moral compass daughter? Nice touch. And, I love the little not allowed office romance
between Ted and the blond.

I'm seriously loving this show. The characters are well done and genuinely funny. It's a show it's so getting cancelled. I'm starting to think
Andrea Anders is a show-killer.
