Kirstie - Wednesdays at 10:00PM ET/PT on TV Land
Premieres Wednesday, December 4, 2013 at 10:00PM ET/P

Kirstie Alley has had her fair share of sitcom roles over the years, which of course, makes her a natural for her latest role as star of her own TV Land sitcom, Kirstie. The latest entry to TV Land's slate of original sitcoms follows Maddie Banks (Alley) as she is going through her everyday life as an award-winning stage actress, living life with her personal assistant Thelma (Rhea Pearlman) and limo driver Frank (Michael Richards)... that is, until an unexpected guest shows up outside of the stage one night, her biological 26-year-old son Arlo, who was given up for adoption after birth. Now, he's back in her life, and she is discovering what it is like to be a mother for the first time in her life.

Kirstie Alley's new comedy is moldy, but the acting is quite professional and gets the job done. PLUS: It is neither good nor terrible.

I taped it last night. Now I'll watch it and see if it's good.

I also taped it but until I have several episodes of a show taped, I don't like to watch anything new. It takes me a while to get a feel for the characters.

Also - if a new show is going to be cancelled, I'm not investing energy into it. We should know by the 5th episode, I hope.

If you "taped it," you're part of its target audience.
