It's from the same creator as Parks & Rec, and it getting better a lot faster than that show did. Not a wasted character in the cast. Didn't know if Braughter should be doing comedy but his deadpan delivery has me dying. Crews is killing it, and Chelsea Peretti is wifey material. Fox has already ordered the full season, and it's gonna be paired with New Girl in the post-Super Bowl time slot.

Anyone else watching this?

I really dig this show but I hear the ratings aren't doing well so I'm worried it will get clipped.

I've been watching and enjoying the show. It still hasn't really made me laugh a ton, but I'm hoping it will get there.

Agreed that the Captain being deadpan and Peretti are the best parts right now.

They need to fine-tune the angry Hispanic cop a little and the one who is a suck-up. The creative team behind the show gives me faith they will find the right balance.

It got a full season order and is gonna be on after the Super Bowl. It's doing fine. It gets hurt a little because the show on before it is complete trash.

Okay cool. Fox has a history of pulling the plug on shows before they find an audience

Saw I think the pilot and while it was ok I can't get the thought out of my head every time I see Andre Braugher onscreen that he'd rather be doing something else. Dude is too talented an actor for that deadpan role.

I dunno I think him doing deadpan is pretty funny especially since he famous for his acting range. The episode where they dedicated the whole show to how no one can figure out his emotions was my favorite.

It defintely peaks my interest since I fukks with "The Office" and "Parks & Rec". But I wanna try to get into "New Girl" (and maybe "Happy Endings") before getting into this show.
