Rebel Wilson Talks "Super Fun Night" Pilot, Compares It To "Seinfeld"
10/2/2013

It's no secret that the odds aren't exactly in Rebel Wilson's favor when it comes to her comedy "Super Fun Night". Critics have panned the new ABC show before its premiere, so much so that the network decided to not air the original pilot.

"I think with any show it just takes time," Wilson told HuffPost TV at Cosmo's Super Fun Night with Rebel Wilson in New York City. "Even 'Seinfeld' had such an interesting development. It went through a whole rough period, and then four episodes in they found their feet."

"We might not have hit it out of the park in the first episode, but we just finished filming episode seven, and I think people are going to be really shocked about what's down the line," she continued.

"There are dramatic episodes, there are episode where we sing and dance … there's a lot of really cool stuff down the pipeline. It's my first show in America, so it's probably always going to be a little bit wobbly, but I'm so proud. We're really doing really good work on set."

I watched this last night and thought it was funny. Mainly because of Rebel Wilson. Now, if Hollywood can just find decent comedy writers and not a bunch of 20 somethings who still think "fart jokes" are funny, she will be fine. There are actually some fine comedy talent in Hollywood today; the writers are the ones who suck.
