See the promos for more quotes from media outlets, lol.

When was the last time a four camera sitcom got this many good reviews?

It was pretty good... no Friends or Seinfeld, but certainly better than any sitcom on TV today. Jane Curtain is hilarious.

Will be back next week...

I thought it was pretty good.

I thought it was VERY good. Definitely the best comedy on TV right now, I haven't laughed out loud this many times since Friends was last on.

I hope the magic remains in the next episodes. The cast seems to have a good chemistry already.

Is there a new rule that states every new show on tv must have a gay charactor?

The show would have been just as good if the wonder years kid was straight. It seems like they made him gay just because everyone else is doing it.

I have no problem with peoples orientation. Hell, I say if it feels good, do it. It is just wierd that I missed the memo about the new requirement.

The show does look like it has some promise. It will be interesting to see if it can survive in a media world that gives a show 1 episode to prove everything.

I hear ya. I watched the first episode and was so happy to find out that Fred Savage was on it, only to find out that his character was gay. I was disappointed to say the least.

It does look like a promising sitcom, otherwise. I don't personally care for the gay lifestyle, but there are gays out there and it's something I have learned to live with.
I don't know why it's a requirement nowadays for their to be at least one gay character on sitcoms, but whatever. Looks pretty good, though.
