So it looks like another piece of trash comedy is going to benefit from being sandwiched between the Simpsons and Family Guy. Watched the first half of it and most it it was just a laugh track over and over

Yeah it's pretty terrible. Rob Corddry needs to get back to the Daily Show. Studio 60 (his brother's show) isn't doing great in the ratings but at least it's good.

I understand its the pilot so i'm going to give it acouple more episodes but I had to stop watching it, the laugh track was too much. I can watch a sitcom w/ a laugh track but this one kept distracting me from the show, well that and the bad storyline

Apparently all the episodes are available for download on iTunes. That can't be a good sign for the show.

so far pretty fucking lame...although, what do you call a canadian who flies a plane? best joke yet...
hopefully the rest won't be so bad, since this is only a pilot episode

"there's nothing wrong with working in a video store"
"yeah, uh, if youre over 30 and dont have downs syndrome...yeah there is"

The narration is bad and completely unnecessary.

Arrested Development basically doomed any comedy with a laugh track's chances.

The first episode had a couple good laughs, but I agree the laugh track is ridiculous. Every line has a goddamn laugh after it.

I didn't notice the laugh track when I was watching it, but now that you mention it. It did a a bit to much. But the show wasn't the worst thing ever. The kid in it was really funny IMO

It reminds me of The Wonder Years.

I think Rob is funny, but i just dont think this show will last, and if it does, it will be because of the time slot its in.

Its extremely mediocre.

If you made it past the first 10 minutes, it was watchable, but I don't see it going anywhere.

Without a laugh track this show would be better x1000. But, the 2nd episode was better and I think it's got huge potential, actually. It's a zillion times better than The War at H ome.

They casted the perfect kid, he's funny. I think overall the show wasn't horrible, but it's not going to go anywhere.

I agree about the kid. He was great.

That still only puts it on the same level of enjoyment as food poisoning and syphilis.

Wait is this replacing the War At Home? If so, then i'll be very happy.
