I know it didn't air yet but this is the official Whoopi talkback thread.

Whoopi?

Yukki.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 09-09-2003, 09:48 PM

I don't think it was that bad.

Kell · 09-09-2003, 10:14 PM

I thought it was good..she is saying what people are thinking

boechsner · 09-10-2003, 01:27 AM

I thought the pilot was hilarious. I'm looking forward to more episodes. Happy Family on the other hand, was terrible.

*GoodMorningCalgary* · 09-10-2003, 09:23 AM

I missed it

felicitylen · 09-10-2003, 11:09 AM

I thought it was kinda funny.

Christopher · 09-10-2003, 12:23 PM

I like it, I hope it lasts a whole season.

DustBunny · 09-10-2003, 12:31 PM

Damn I missed it.

Central Perk · 09-10-2003, 03:02 PM

Whoopi tried too hard to be funny, imo. I don't really like the characters, they all seem to be stereotypes. I wouldn't be surprised if this show doesn't last a whole year.

Will and Grace Fanatic · 09-11-2003, 06:51 PM

I thought it was pretty funny. Definatley will tune in again. I hope it last.

Chelsea · 09-11-2003, 09:39 PM

Actually, I thought it was pretty funny (And, in the last decade or so, I've managed to like. maybe, 10 total [avg. 1 a year])

I laughed more than I expected to, anyway. First time I've watched anything in NBC primetime, let alone a rerun of it, except for Frasier, since I don't KNOW when....

I think the *Good* sitcom is on a comeback. Granted, I don't think the show is the best thing since Sliced Bread, but it's pretty dang good.

I thought it was funny. The only stereotype I didn't like was the persian. What was with all the cracks about arabs?? But the white/black girl was SO funny. Everyone, those chicks exist. I know too many of them.
