The Neighborhood

In the first 10 mins of pilot, I wanted to give 1 star. Give it time, it will stick.

The show has a great potential. By 3rd or 4th .. You will start loving it and get the idea ..

Just take a chance...

I am just now watching the series and I'm so glad I made it past the pilot episode. When I heard the laugh track I was very tempted to move on to something else. That would have been a mistake. Granted I am only on the first season, The Neighborhood is funny

Schmidt (yes, he will always be Schmidt from New Girl to me, lol) and Cedric play off of each other so well. Then of course we have PAM (sorry yall, I get stuck on my fave characters) who is obviously funny too. The Neighnorhood is well written and highly entertaining.

One thing I wish though is that there was no laugh track. I hate them so much.

I like this show, but the EXCESSIVE use of the laugh track is making it hard to watch. The show doesn't need the laugh track, it is funny on its own. Gone are the days of filming before a live audience - Friends. This show has excellent writing and jokes. It tackles sensitive issues without getting preachy. I am finding that the laugh track is louder than the dialogue - why??? People are smart enough to know when something is funny, just because there is a laugh track doesn't make it funny, just annoying. So PLEASE stop using the laugh track. Not every joke needs the laugh track, let people watch the show and laugh at the parts they think is funny.

It was a cute pilot episode. I'm interested in seeing more. Funny

Aside from the laugh track I really enjoy the show. The character of Marty is great as he stops by to observe the worst moments of others.
