Give it a chance breh at least to see the two of them together who are clearly the best thing about the show. The show has MOMENTS where I've genuinely laughed. 3 min into the 2nd episode it's leaps and bounds better than the pilot but that's not saying much. More entertaining than some other shows that air on FX Sunday nights at 10:sas2:
yeah ima give it a chance
just watched the Purge 2 joint with my homeboys
shyt wasnt that bad to be honest
I mean compared to that first bullshyt they made

Again..can't stress this enough..I'm more entertained by this than I was the entire episode of the Strain from last night. 40 min of tv and things have actually happened

Judging by the title of the show I thought it would be about two gay lawyers. Kelsey Grammer humping Martin doggystyle didn't help either.

Plus The 2nd Comparison They Showed Was Randomly "Cock Fighting" WTH Is Going On Here?

:snoop: @ Vanilla Ice .....guess he needed the check

Where at? Did I miss him? Speaking of him, he shytted on the new song for the new turtles flick saying it felt too corporate...as if his song called ninja rap which appeared in an arbitrary setting during the climax of the very corporate 2nd movie wasn't corporate at all :sas2:

It's the laugh track breh. The premise has potential and clearly the stars work...imagine this shyt on network tv or just as a single camera show. But I don't know if Martin works in single cam to be real and that's not a shot at him but I've never seen him do it. Cheers was single cam for a while so Kelsey can do that

Why do you think this would be better as single camera? I never paid attention to that until modern family. And although that show is hilarious, single camera production seems it wouldn't be as good or authentic cuz of the multiple takes you have to do as opposed to getting it right the first time and having all the angles.


Just wanting to know your thoughts since you mentioned it

but when "the game" first came to BET the lack of a laugh track was awkward!...then they added back in at the right doses. Partners over does it..instead of waiting for the hard hitting jokes.

i'll give it a chance...but it seems like a UPN show from the early 2G that should have come on after girlfriends, eve, half and half, or one-on-one.

are they ever going to wear casual clothes, lol. appeared to be all suit and tie.

I'm not sure if this show will define an era as it is cookie cutter right now...but many say you have to wait until the run is over, but with Martin it screamed 90's from the minute you saw the do the right thing poster.

Even "the game" defined/defines an era from the clothes, to the social issues, to the personalities.

Single cam normally allows for jokes to be better constructed and can be a bit more edgy in it's portrayal of its characters and the jokes as opposed to multi cam shows which as of now are mostly designed to be throwbacks to the 90s so everything is a lot simpler
