OK so right off the bat I'm just gonna say it that the only reason to watch this is for Eliza Coupe in tiny skirts.

The pilot had a few chuckles but that's about it, its on USA so we'll see how long it takes for it to be gone, I'll just watch it for Eliza and that's it!

The biggest reason to watch USA’s Benched is to observe Eliza Coupe at work. She previously showcased her acting chops on the fondly missed Happy Endings by routinely commanding attention and standing out among an impressive ensemble cast — and now, on Benched, all eyes are focused on her. Coupe spits out one-liners with ease and effortlessly slips into the rapid-fire, circular jargon that’s required of all lawyer shows. She plays both the unhinged corporate lawyer in the midst of a breakdown and the exhausted, out-of-her-element public defender trying to figure her life out. …

This may be pretty good I really liked her on Happy Endings, I'll have to see when this show is on and if it interferes with what I'm currently recording.

The second episode was a little funnier this time.I'm just surprised at how the show can get away from using the S-word, a little profanity is sometimes funny but I hope the show doesnt overdo it.

I wasn't impressed with the pilot it was kind of sad actually. Her ex-co star is funnier in Marry Me.

Third episode was OK not great but at this point I'll just continue watching for Eliza.
