I'm assuming at least JORR is also watching for the first episode solely for Zooey. After six minutes the three guys look like really uninteresting douchebags so far unfortunately.

It's Fox. Of course it will...christ, they kept that stupid ass Til Death show on for what seemed like 3 years, and that was a fucking horse abortion.

Agreed. She's probably my favorite actress and I'm out after one show. The writers are awful for this show. The three guys act like a 14 year old female pothead writes their parts and lines. Just very bad.

I watched it. HUGE Zooey fan.

This show does not look good. She is quirky enough in everything she is in - but she is WAY over the top in this. It's too much. And it's not a comedy like I hoped - it's a total chick show.

The douchebag is probably the funniest character, but he's a little over the top too

She is amazing, but this first ep was bad. Really unfunny. Only guy I sort of laughed at was Damon Wayans.


Will give it one more shot to see if the over-the-topness was just the pilot.

I think it has potential. Pilots are always a little rough. They need to let it grow a little.

I'm honestly not sure who the next best character to Zooey is but I'm sure it's not him. He was making the first episode borderline unwatchable IMO.

Oh wait, she's actually married to Ben Gibbard.
Same difference.

I caught the last 10 minutes. Seems like there could be something there but I sense a complete overhaul in characters coming if they plan to make this work.

It the commercials I saw it seemed like they were trying to give her Liz Lemon-like awkwardness in social situations, and especially around men.

It wasn't awful.

Angus is right. Pilots usually suck. I'll give it awhile.

Whitney and Free Agents look awful. This was nowhere near that bad.

Was Free Agents the one with the weird one night stand people at the PR firm?

I semi-watched that. The gf had it on. Looked infinitely more interesting than The New Girl.

Yeah this is definitely a chick show. Chicks loved it if my FB newsfeed is any indication. I don't get it.

USA Today raved & gave it 3-1/2 stars. I thought I'd try to catch it On Demand, but I trust the board more (seriously).

A woman must've written the review. Alot of chicks like the show but one obvious way to tell it sucks is that they can't explain why. Just that "it's really cute". It's pretty easy to detail why this show specifically sucks, I haven't heard anyone make a convincing case for why it doesn't suck.
