Oh please. Why would you cast a lead who is so bored with what she is doing, she constantly telegraphs to the audience that she would rather be anywhere else, DOING anything else? Sure, it works for her character, but when it permeates every single word she says and every single ANNOYING roll of her eyes...I just have to ask why? As a Casting Director, I know HUNDREDS of MUCH BETTER actors who would have actually taken all of us on a journey, that we ALL would have enjoyed. INCLUDING the actor! Rather than the droll, I hate my job, that we get to watch every episode. Will Forte is SO LOST in this one, I'm not sure he is even in the same country as the rest of the cast. Talk about emailing it in. He takes the email championship cup in this one. I am fed up with BAD TV. I gave this a chance and barely made it through the third episode, when I finally said to myself: Self you can be doing so many other rewarding things right now, the dishes, washing my clothes, putting my winter clothes in storage...washing my hair. Why not be good to our self and do any of those INSTEAD of laboring through one more ridiculous minute of this mess of a show. A show that could EASILY and SHOULD have been a 90-minute film. Screenwriting 101, repetition and exposition, gee two of my absolute favorite aspects of any script... NOT... does not a compelling drama make. I must have sneezed over the comedy, I did not laugh once while watching this hot puddle of a scrambled mess. I refuse to waste my time on hyped up, Streamer exec: Hey, let's put this in the top 10 to force people to get interested and watch, manipulation like that, has gotten on my last nerve.
If TV doesn't get and better, and quickly, I fear it will NOT, I am going to JUST watch TCM and enjoy my evenings a whole lot more.
