Day/Time: Wednesday, 8:30pm (CST)
Type: Comedy. . .?
Episode Watched: Episode 2: The Birdcage
Setting: NYC?
Oh wow. So um . . .yeah. That's a half hour of my life I'll never get back. Lots of canned laughter. "ooooOOOOoooo!" from Saved By the Bell audiences. So basically, this show takes place in a hotel in what I think is New York. Or Miami. I don't know. I do know that I wish the show was about 80% exterior shots and 20% show, because then it might have been enjoyable. It's basically every stereotype you've seen on a sitcom. Let's review:
Womanizing Male Lead (usually played by an actor who used to have a film career)
Dumb blonde
Sassy Black Woman (snap!)
Sassy Gay Man (snap!)
Some entry-level dude who wants to scam on chicks and calls people old
dumb other girls
On the show I watched, Jerry O'Connell gets a human-size birdcage and gets the girls to fight over who gets to dance in it. SBW will have none of it and is upset she has to miss her girls' night. And laughter does NOT ensue. The girl and the gay guy end up pimping out the over-sexed young guy who sleeps with the hotel guests. So yeah. . .uh. . .hilarious.
The Office starts next week!
Best scene: Jesse Tyler Ferguson telling the annoying entry-level kid that not slapping hands on “up top!” is his favorite part of being gay.
Pickle: Building inspectors come to look at the birdcage because the SBM called to tattle.
You’ll like this if you miss: That shitty show with Kelsey Grammar and Patricia Heaton from last year. And you shoudln't be allowed to watch TV.
Underpants shot: Not really, but kinda.
Product placement: Audrina from The Hills
Times I laughed: 0
End Credits: Bloopers! Just like Home Improvement!
Added to schedule?: No. Wait. Hell no.
Oh my gosh! Isn't that: Leaf Coneybear from the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. . .and The Class?
yes. yes it is.
