Community (2009)
Why so many terrible ratings
I watch Community and it's funny most of the time. Some episodes are not so good but overall I think it's a good sitcom so why does this show have such bad ratings on NBC? I don't understand how a show can have so many fans but yet not be as popular as "2 Broke Girls" or "How I met Your Mother". Community has been on NBC for years now and it still can't get really good ratings. How did this happen and can this change? The Nielsen ratings for Community is at best average for NC and when compared to ABC & CBS & FOX then the ratings are really not good so how can NBC turn this around? It seems to me that smart sitcoms do not make NBC any money which is really sad. If NBC puts it back on Thursday night and if "Community" continues to get medium ratings do you think that NBC will keep it around long enough for syndication or do you think that NBC will continue to see the writing on the wall and try to be more like ABC & CBS?
Whitney (2011)
Damn good show, solid characters
Much to my surprise, Whitney ends up being a very funny show. The surrounding characters really round out this sitcom to create scenes that are damn funny and memorable. All of Whitney's friends are a little weird in a good way. Her boyfriend Alex is so off it's funny. He does weird voices and movements with his body that are so unique that you just need to watch it to understand how funny it can be. Roxanne is another special character that has the ability to do physical humor and her timing is spot on. Lilly and her fiancé are especially difficult to figure out and were a bit slow to develop but I am now really digging their dynamics and want to see where that strange couple ends up. Whitney's parents have not played a huge part so far and it may be good to see a little more of them but what I have seen of them I was not in love with. The characters need more development but all in all this show was a gem to find and I am shocked that this show is not at the top of the list of best new comedies. So, check this out for yourselves and I think you will be shocked how damn sharp it is.
