It was a bad combination of forced zany behavior from oddball characters and the wrong type of cynicism.

Allison Janney's character in particular seemed to be written by someone who hates her and wants to see her suffer by giving her the worst lines possible.

I get what you're saying about Janney's character, but I still liked her performance. - musubi Feb 10, 09:02 6
- The cast is Better Off Ted + Studio 60 with Hurley thrown in. I have to like that, right? -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:03 5
  - this just reminded me of Janney's horrid guest appearance on Lost. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:04
  - Wasn't Hurkey just a guest? - Spawn Feb 10, 09:04 3
    - He was brought on as an emergency hire and is presumed to go to full time if the show gets more episodes. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:05 2
      - I quite liked his scenes. "Your name is Bob Bobbinson Bobbert?" -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 09:09 1
        
        Yup, Hurley was one of the stronger points I think can be emphasized in the future. - musubi Feb 10, 09:12
I figured they would drive home the fact that she is *not* CJ. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:02
ugh. I hate the first thing. I'll give it a try (didnt' know it was on last night) because I love the cast. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:01
Ah, they kept the writer from Away We Go. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:01
