I love a good comedy. 1600 Penn is not one of them. To sit through the pilot was worse than going to the dentist! I actually couldn't wait for it to end! I kept waiting for it to get funny but it never happened. Bill Pullman should be ashamed of himself. He looked so out of place on this show. Do they even show this to people before airing it on prime time television to see if they think it is good? I don't even want to watch another episode to see if it improves. That is how bad this show is. I hate to be a downer but that is my truthful opinion of this train wreck NBC calls a comedy. I can see why the cable networks are killing the major networks. Shows like this are proof!

Producer Dick Wolf's shows are the best!

My wife and I are hooked on this show. We have watched all of the episodes from the beginning and really look forward to seeing it every Wednesday night. The different story lines and plots are enough to keep you interested without being too dramatic. I have read many reviews that say it isn't realistic. It is Hollywood, folks - it can only be as close to real as TV allows. Get over it! I think that some of the rescue scenes are incredible. Hopefully some of the plots that were developing (like the dirty cop plot) are continued as they were great. Give this show a chance - it is like the 70's show Emergency! for 2012. If you like Law & Order then you will like this show too. It has the Dick Wolf touch that makes it a great show. We love it!
