PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Coupling cancelled" |
Wow, that was quick... don't look now, but there goes any chance NBC had that it could keep its hold on Thursdays for next year.I'd be surprised if we don't see the same thing from "Joey" at this time next year.

I enjoyed "Coupling". I wish NBC would have given it a chance. Once "Friends" is gone, "Will and Grace" will be next. I think Thursday nights will no longer be NBC's pride and joy.I also don't think "Joey" will last. I think Matt LeBlanc is funny, but I don't think he's funny enough to carry an entire show.

Friday? You're kidding right?As for any other night, from the beginning NBC wasn't shy the fact that the show was supposed to be a 2004 Thursday night replacement for Friends, so if that was supposed to be its role, it made no sense to air it any other night -- it's whole purpose was to be the "new Friends"

No surprise that it got cancelled. The U.K. version is ten times better because it's unusual to see Brits talk about sex and other sexual topics. It's not unusual (or groundbreaking) for a show like this to air here in the States because those subjects are discussed/shown on just about every show in primetime. That being the case, there's no reason to watch this show when others do a better job at tackling the subject(s). Plus, the actors were horrible.

Good riddance! It was a terrible show. I guess that means more "Super-Sized" Thursday nights where NBC just adds in more commercials to spread out three shows.So what (if any) NBC show deserves the Thursday slot. None come to mind for me. If you don't have time to do it right the first time, when are you going to find time to do it again? - Anonymous

I think that Coupling could've been a hit. While the actors weren't all that great, neither were the Friends crew when they started out. They should've hung in there a little while longer-it was just starting to grow on me when it got yanked.

I usually give a show a chance but I gave this show about 30 seconds of the first show before bailing. The laugh track was thunderously loud and after hearing hysterical laughter twice to lines that were not even remotely funny, I gave up.

Saw one episode of Coupling - awful. I'm getting so exhausted with Thursday nights - what happened to Good Morning Miami? It was better than Coupling. Scrubs, right now, is the only thing on Thursday night NBC that consistently delivers "funny" and "touching."(No, not like that kind of touching.)
