CardWarfare 4 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Ok, so this show caught my interest because of it's hot star, Jordana Spiro, and because I love Jim Gaffigan. I tuned into the premier episode last night, and have to say I really enjoyed it. They played another episode immediately after, but I didn't get to see it all. It's a pretty gay premise, with a tomboy-ish chick who's friends with all guys, but I'm a pretty gay guy, and I like pretty gay things. This however, is not gay, and I would do very not gay things with her. Link to post Share on other sites

hank213 1,823 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I wanted to see this, but it's opposite Boston Legal, so it loses. Yes I'm still living in the mid-90's no tivo, dvr etc. But I just happened to see they are replaying tonight at 10 cst so I'll check it out and join in the gayosity. Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Don't sell me too short, I am that gay.I set up a season pass for this show, and have this weeks episodes all ready to watch and next weeks all ready to record.Hank, its on Wednesday, not Tuesday so your Boston Public commitment won't be affected.It plays first run Wed from 10-11pm, but they replay both episodes directly after, from 11-12.I liked the way the girl looked and I like some girly shows, so I said what tha heck, but if more than one of those guy characters gives me the "she's like a sister, I could never bang her" speech, I'm gonna be irritated. We are guys, a hot girl can never be one of the guys, because at the end of the night, I would never want to bang "one of the guys" but I'd bang the hot girl.Thats my take on that. That being said, I can't wait to watch it. Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 so I watched it.Her voice is deeper than I thought it would be, threw me off. She's still good to go though.First episode was a little rough for me and the second episode even made me laugh out loud once. I'll keep watching. Link to post Share on other sites

brvheart 1,752 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I saw both episodes because it looked decent to me also... and I think it could be an interesting premise. But alas, I hope it gets better... because I thought that it focused WAY too much on relationship crap and not enough on funny. In other news, keeping with tradition, I totally disagree with Keith about Jim Gaffigan.. I find him hilarious... hot pockets.I'll give the show another chance, because it didn't completely suck, but if it doesn't get funnier, it will quickly be 'un'seasonpassed.Funny > relationship crap.

CardWarfare 4 Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 2 New episodes tonight. Supposedly some other dude falls for PJ, and and the guys find out about her hooking up with that other guy...:squeals with excitement: Link to post Share on other sites

Gaffigan is priceless with his farm toys.I enjoyed the episodes last night and the show is good enough to keep me around.I wish the friends would goof on each other more, in a meaner way. Would seem more real. Make it a little edgier. She said "I call bullshit" on the episode, I was impressed. Its things like that that make shows work. Real dialogue. It's so tough for network shows to do that.One thing that did bother me, she said she couldn't go somewhere because football on Monday, baseball game to cover on Tuesday, then a hockey game on Wednesday. I cant think of a time when baseball, football and hockey are in season at the same time. They did deal the small blind first in the poker game though. Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 OctoberSince when do the Cubs play in October?and yes, when I asked the question, I knew the only plausible answer was October and I knew I was setting myself up for a joke.But they make it pretty clear that the Cubs suck and its the middle of the season. Just one of those things that should've been caught. Link to post Share on other sites

Just one of those things that should've been caught.I didn't watch the show and didn't know they were talking about the Cubs or that it's the middle of the season.I wasn't making a joke, just thought maybe you didn't follow hockey and didn't know the season started in October.

I was really surprised you could get away with that on TBS, but I guess they don't care, she also said, "You guys are dicks" to her friends, which was another, less surprising bit of vulgarity that I appreciated.
