    There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

    Little Fluff

    It's no bad thing for your new sit-com to be compared to Seinfeld nor to openly admit that show provided much inspiration; it would be a little like Slash saying that with his first guitar he never strummed along to a Beatles song. But as far as any fair comparison between Mulaney and Seinfeld goes it starts at sit- but gets nowhere near the com.I've tried hard to like it I really have but I can barely believe central conceit that the three main characters even share the same apartment which looks like a set devised simply for the three of them to pass through while exchanging gags while never sitting down.This brings me to the actors. I just don't get John Mulaney at all, he's just so wooden. Nasim Pedrad and Seaton Smith are also severely lacking in acting chops and have a hard time selling a gag: when Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David hired Alexander,Dreyfuss and Richards that day their god was smiling upon them all. And so to the script which is pretty poor so have some sympathy with the cast.The only thing that has kept me watching is to see the class of Martin Short and Elliot Gould. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Martin Short was given pretty much free rein for his segments.How To Be a Gentleman was funnier than this and that wasn't re- commissioned.(Was it pulled after three shows?) Mulaney hasn't got a cat in hell's chance without bring in major writing talent.

    I've watched John Mulaney's stand up and seen him on quite a few talks shows. I found his stand up quite funny, and he seems like a great guy, so I was interested in seeing what his show was like. During his stand up bit at the beginning of the first episode I was thinking to myself "This show is going to be great". Then the show began. I just can't their using a live audience. If you like shows with live audience you might be able to get into this. I can't stand live audiences and can't believe that any comedy to come out since the early 2000s still uses them. I was really hoping this show was going to have a very real and down-to-earth feel to it like Louis. But instead I got a really cheesy cookie cutter sit-com that reminds me of 90% of the other sit-coms with laugh tracks. The laugh track (or live audience) isn't the only problem I have though, the acting seems forced to me and the situations unrealistic. Anyone who's a fan of realistic comedy without Laugh tracks and cheesy little gimmicks, I recommend staying away from this show.I don't want to give this a rating because it might just have to do with me not liking laugh tracks.

    This sitcom is such a classic set up from the 90's, maybe even 80's sitcoms had such a feel that seems lost on most modern comedies. Not that it is out of date, the jokes are modern and sharp. Only three episodes in I really hope it gets a chance at repeat seasons. The star is funny as a stand up and it was kind of odd seeing some of his jokes turned into episodic punchlines, but not in a horrible way, just like ahh, I see what he did there. The female lead is odd, really really odd. I think she could be replaced and the show might find a new strength. Everybody else is pretty great. Martin Short is perfect as Lou. Overall a great show so far and I figure the rest of the season will get better. This seems like they are all (accept Short) are getting comfortable in their new roles.

    The show's pilot starts out with a sexist joke and it just continues the women bashing from there. I'm not surprised, this show IS on FOX. FOX is conservative central.The 'star' of the show (never heard of this guy before, no offence) says that he was chasing a woman late a night and he was offended that she ran from him. What? He says he was not trying to attack her but merely trying to catch the subway. Sounds awfully like an excuse a criminal would say. "I was not chasing you just chasing after the subway." Huh? Even though he ADMITS to chasing the WOMAN....OK, moving on....we next see the credits after the rip-off Seinfeld intro. Oh yeah, in addition to the show being backwards they also rip off other shows. Mainly Seinfeld and Friends. You can see it in the transition scenes. It's set in NYC like those shows and even the apt that they are in, from the outside, looks like the one in friends! The inside looks like a hybrid between Seinfeld and Friends.Now we are in a doctor's waiting room, with two men talking about their various scams. Then the only female character bursts in and acts like the female stereotype conservatives try to brand all women with. Crazy, emotional, irrational, obsessed with men, evil, stupid, easily beaten, not to be taken seriously. Wow! She bursts in and the first thing out of her mouth is "I am not crazy!" Then starts acting crazy..... and she states sexist things and it's played off like she lost even though she is right..... they make fun of her to no end.Also in shows where there is sexism their is also racism! There is the token black friend! Who is the conservative stereotype of African- American/Black people. Loud, annoying, simple, lazy, stupid, silly. Wow!The 'star' of the show was a stand up comedian and there are strange parts in the show where he almost looks directly to the camera to say 'bits' from his routine. Wth is this show trying to be? It's like 99% rip off and 1% weird homage to this guys stand up? It just seems random and shoved in there when he does it.There are jokes against breast cancer! They say that the walk was named after a woman because she will get a kick out of it. Yeah breast cancer/women issues are not important! Sure men can get it too, but of course it's mostly women....Token black friend continues the women bashing with 'problem bitch' WOW! Then the 'star' says to the only female "What are you doing here btw cuz i know it's not to support me." Then the only female says "Would a woman with nothing in her life immerse he life in charity work?" More bashing. Then the only woman rips out plants of her ex. And calls the 'star' "white boy" wow :O Are we still only defined by our race!? Shows how racist this show is....The 'problem bitch' joke continues with the only female's ex calling his current gf one and saying '(at least) crazy calms down.' WOW so women are either crazy, or problems....wow. Also the other female, which is basically a voice, wants to be on speaker. So yeah all women are vain and want to be the center of attention. This show, so against women wow!Near the end of the show the 'star' complains that he is not getting treated properly by his boss. And boom instant reward. YET the female complains and no one cares....just wow I have no words for how sexist this is.The show does have it's funny parts, but the sexist/racist parts just drag the show down. Mostly I am laughing at the show for how ignorant it is. I just say "Hey, your ignorance is showing!" FOX can you PLEASE stop all the white male worship? Minorities are also human beings as much as you like to deny it. They have rights as well. Conservatives are working hard to strip these groups of ALL their rights but no, you really have to stop. It's getting too obvious, you can't even hide your ignorance and try to pass it off as 'comedy' anymore. STOP the gender/race stereotyping and this show may have a chance.
