Most of the sit-coms could be dropped, IMO. I still like BBT.
I started off liking 2 Broke Girls, but their jokes have become too predictable and really not very funny, and some of the regulars just aren't funny either. The blond in particular (Beth something) tries too hard and is just not a comic talent, but Jennifer Coolidge (great talent normally, and who can be seriously hilarious in other roles) is ridiculous on that show, and the polish cook is just stupid. I like Garret Morris (mainly out of nostalgia) and Kat Dennings is great.
And Two and a Half Men back again? Really? Seriously?
And Undercover Boss? How long will it be before people catch on that that new guy with the camera crew could be their boss? I mean, this is shown on national TV, surely someone will catch on. And the repeated teary scenarios get old. Bleah.
I still watch the Tim Allen show, Tim has honed his comic chops and it shows, he’s great. They have great (the best, IMO) writing, as well as superior acting and comic talent. Even bland old Nancy Travis holds up her end admirably. Even the fringe characters are fun. Just a show worth watching.
But aside from that show and BBT, please, just wipe the sit-com board and start over.
I am in awe of the monumentally great job that Johnny Miller does in pulling off the Sherlock Holmes character, and of the deft adaptation that the creators did bringing that story to contemporary life in New York. And especially of turning Lucy Liu into Watson. The stuffy pipe smoking English gentleman that Conan Doyle created was perfect for London, but would not translate to 2014 New York. Brilliant. Great show.
