For the wrong reason. Show is far less noteworthy than the names behind it.
Missed Jeff without even realizing it. Took about 20 seconds of his opening rant to remember how good it is to see him.
The rest of the cast is uneven. Mortimer does not have the pull of McAdams http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1126618/.
Waterston is good as ever. The rest were unmemorable.
The writing was sporadically good. Lots of sharp retorts and pointed observations. Lot of the obscenity just felt forced. Will have to show more sophistication if it wants to retain interest. Same old potshots at same old 'stupid and indifferent' viewers is just boring and has been done to death. See very little 'intelligence' or 'genius' in hitting obvious and soft targets.
Needless camera movement. Meant to convey intensity on screen instead leaves you incensed on couch. Do these dimwits really equate motion sickness with high drama ?
Idly curious to see how this plays out. Characters are interesting but cast is spotty. Romance is decidedly hackneyed. As is the writing in large part. Opening grabs attention and the rest steadily loses it.
Doubt this will be the grand success people claim it is.
'Dumb' viewer will shoulder the blame.
Wish them well.
Thank you.
