Yay! I finally got Follow buttons for people! Downlaoding Opera seemed to be best for this site. Odd choice really.

So boring. I would have only given it half a star if it wasn't for Dreyfuss is so believable. Too bad he's believably boring.

They took the hilarious Jane Lynch and the adorable Maggie Lawson and gave them a crap script with lots of cliche characters surrounding them.

Was anyone really surprised it was canceled so soon?

This show started out so well. Emily Van Camp proved she could stand her own opposite Madeline Stowe. This is no easy feat. The two played a great game for the first couple of seasons. It was intriguing and suspenseful. Well acted with characters that always had something up their sleeve.

But the show has long run out of ideas. Adding new characters who have new feuds that aren't half as interesting as the original storyline. They pulled the long dead character is really alive bit that has been so overused it rarely works. It didn't here. It was predictable and uninteresting.

Watch the first season for how good it was. Watch the next two if you haven't got any other shows in your queue. Skip the 4th unless you really need to see the ending. For some reason I'm still watching the 4th but generally as background noise.

Good pilot. After that it goes downhill quickly. It's popularity seems to be largely due to a well designed laugh track and the physical attractiveness of the cast.

I lasted 3 more episodes and I was out.

Laura Dern, as always, gives an amazing performance. She is fun to watch lose her mind and easy to enjoy it while still remaining sympathetic to her character. I simultaneously wanted to stop her from making matters worse for herself while sitting back and watching the aftermath.

Mike White is one of the most underrated writers in Hollywood. The two together made a great team.

This show was definition of stupid funny. Always over the top, the most ridiculous scenarios, and hilarious actors.

One (awful but apt) line from the Reno 911 movie sums it up perfectly:
"This is the stupidest group of people I've ever worked with who are not legally retarded"

This is constantly compared to Friends. I hated Friends. This was funny. Like actually funny and didn't use a laugh track to convince you it was funny.

Cast was great. Episodes off the wall. Mostly a gang you would want to hang out with but not take any life advice from.

The title, besides just being messed up, never fit the show. Which became a running joke for the show but the left the show with no real focus or consistency.

Just a bunch of alcoholic losers with too much money to care about the fact that their lives were meaningless. That gets old real fast.

While Laverne & Shirley are a classic duo and their original show will remain one of the best for decades to come, this was the opposite. After letting Laverne & Shirley go on a few seasons after they ran out of material they decided to come up with this...shall we say poop.

This was an animated show and featured not only Laverne & Shirley but a Sergeant who was a talking anthropomorphic pig. So bad.

I'm guessing it will be hard to find which is best. If you didn't subject yourself to this (or weren't around to subject yourself to this) when it was originally run, don't look for it. You will regret wasting those moments of your life.

I wanted to like it but it put me to sleep. Prequels aren't usually very good. This was no exception. Sam Axe is a great character as part of an ensemble but when the focus becomes him it gets too cheesy.
