I was bored. But as another commenter said sometimes the pilot has a different feel. I mean look at how good The Office turned out and it's whole 1st Season was meh. I won't go out of my way to watch it<br />Leihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13402922441819919316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-74441863335729281352017-02-07T12:31:15.049-05:002017-02-07T12:31:15.049-05:00Josie & Mallena - No judging at all!

Timothy Olyphant is very funny and cute, and I think this is a perfect role for the always adorable Drew Barrymore. I also like the other folks that are making appearances. The show isn't really covering new ground, but is quite funny, IMHO.<br />-SoozeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-87385075719029708042017-02-07T03:29:16.756-05:002017-02-07T03:29:16.756-05:00Felt pretty uninspired and the special effects wer...Felt pretty uninspired and the special effects were way off from what the Arrowverse does adding to the campy and cringy feel instead of making you laugh. <br /><br />I will continue watching for Tudyk and Pudi though, it might improve and even if it doesn't it's just a short season and it won't be renewed most likely.Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-19665390166313435052017-02-07T00:18:04.441-05:002017-02-07T00:18:04.441-05:00I'd vote in favor of you sticking with The Goo...I'd vote in favor of you sticking with <i>The Good Place</i>, TJ.

You just know that this series will be floating up in the air and we will never see a serious/emotional ep.<br /><br />And I like my Tudyk more Wash/Alpha-like.<br /><br />Hmm...am I completely humorless? Have to think about that...<br /><br /><br />TJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-27965974139597933862017-02-06T17:15:17.036-05:002017-02-06T17:15:17.036-05:00"Meh" is unfortunately accurate.

That guy does a lot of voice work, but not that many live roles. I thought that the show was amusing, but shrill. Emily is very perky and needs to calm down. I'll watch a few more episodes. Anyone watch Santa Clarita Diet, yet? Sorry, Nathan Fillion, but once again my favorite character is someone else. Timothy Olyphant is hilarious in it. I didn't know that he was so funny.
