The Matthew Perry sitcom has averaged 6.7 million viewers, while a well-publicized show like "The Mindy Project" has attracted almost half that, 3.6 million, with its most recent episode.

lol @ anyone who thinks total viewers matter

Go On also has The Voice as a lead-in, I'm sure it would be quite a bit lower if it was following anything else on NBC's line-up.

Even in the demo, Go On is the top new sitcom. Most of the new sitcoms this year suck.

Out of the new ones i only sampled Mindy. I didn't give any other show a try. Most of the comedies I been trying out are from previous seasons

Happy Endings
New Girl
Big Bang Theory
2 Broke girls

Not disagreeing with this, necessarily. I'm just saying a lot of it is because it has one of the best timeslot on network TV right now.

If it continues to do well NBC may want to see if the show can bring up the ratings on another night like what CBS did with Big Bang Theory

Go On may have a LEAD in it's future

I didn't care for Go On when I first saw it but it has gotten better. There's no doubt that The Voice is helping it alot but it has stabilized some.

The Voice is a no doubt big influence, but soon I think Go On can stand on it's own two feet. I thought the show is pretty funny in my own opinion.

I didn't like it so much at first, but it's growing on me.

Much better than his last show, Mr. Sunshine.
