Anyone watch Nathan Lane's new show tonight? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I wonder if anyone caught the premiere of "Charlie Lawrence" tonight at 8:30 PM (EST) on CBS.

If not, you didn't miss much. The cast was first rate, but it wasn't as funny as it should have been.

It's too bad they can't find a decent sitcom for Nathatn Lane to star in.

Anyone else catch it?

I was gonna watch it but after what you said I don't think I will anymore

I saw it. I did laugh. I've been a fan of Nathan Lane's for quite awhile--just wish he could find a successful sit-com to star in. He's very talented.
I can't say I thought much of Ted McGinley though...I haven't liked him since he was brought on to The Love Boat in the 1980's.
I'll probably watch the rest of the episodes that air.

I didn't watch it, but I saw the McGinely alert on jumptheshark.com, didn't know when the show would come on, but I def. saw the McGinely alert.

I thought it was pretty good.Your normal summer sitcom fair.At least it was better than "Baby Bob" although Teala is pretty hot on that show.There's no one hot on this show except for maybe Mcginley

I wanted to but was watching WWE Bad Blood. I will have to set my tape next week. I like Laurie Metcalf and although he might be considered a curse, I do think Ted McGinley is funny. I really liked him in Married With Children.
