Kevin Can Wait - yes or no? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It seems to me that it should have been cancelled after the first few shows were el-stinko.

The thing is, since Will & Grace is "back", as well as Roseanne, it make perfect sense to bring in Leah Remini. Why not, everyone else is doing it and being successful at it?

So - long story short - it's funny, I'm watching it and I'm enjoying it.

What do you all think?

I like it, I'm a fan of Kevin James & Leah Remini. I also think the fellow who plays Chale is funny.

I'm a fan of Kevin and Leah. I thought she might help, but it isn't working. He's trying very hard, but the show isn't funny. Too many problems to fix. Give it up and start from scratch. It just ain't funny. The supporting cast is terrible and I blame him for that. He knows what's funny and it looks like he chose a weak cast (other than Leah) in order to hog the spotlight. And it ruined the show.

Give Man with a Plan a chance. It's not perfect, but has better writing, is funnier, and has a much better supporting cast. It's only problem is not using the supporting cast enough. It's a good show that could easily get better.

Love the cast, but the scripts need work. Sooo much talent to work with - They deserve better material.

It's almost become embarrasing to watch this show. Kevin James is way better than this. This show is a total waste of 30 minutes. Please, cancel it now.

It's such a shame. So much talent.

Season 1 was good, but I didn’t make it through the first episode of Season 2.

Totally agree. This show was good the first season, but now it's embarrassing to watch. The canned laughter, the idiotic, childish jokes that are constantly being thrown at Kevin from Leah is horrific.
I just sit and shake my head and wonder WHEN are they gonna pull the plug and just let it die?!

I guess we'll find out this summer.
