Ground Floor

O M G. I only knew about this show because I like to catch old reruns of Married With Children on the notoriously unfunny channel, TBS. Due to the ridiculous storyline, I knew I would not be carving out time to catch this dullard of a comedy, any time soon. One boring day, I thought it would be convenient to watch an episode on Comcast ONDEMAND. At least I could fast forward through the boring parts if it got stupid.

I eventually had to turn it off. I saw the episode where that guy from Spring Awakening had to decide between going to a baseball game with his boss and going to the game with that girl on the ground floor. Needless to say, I will never know what he did because I couldn't take the cheap puns and ridiculous overacting. The supporting, no name actors probably get stuck with the worst material. But hey, we all have to make a buck don't we.

I will say that I like the fact that the producers choose to cast a beautiful lead actress that isn't the size of a pencil. I think that Skylar guy from Pitch Perfect would be more believable if they had cast him as the gay best friend. Anyway, the show sucks, find something on cable that would make you laugh. Peace

I saw the trailer on TV and decided to watch the show because of Briga Heelan.

The show has a good cast and a simple enough premise of an office comedy. Characters aren't really over the top, although a few have really strong personalities. My biggest surprise was seeing John C. McGinley, who plays Dr Cox in Scrubs and I loved his character in that show and he plays something similar here.

I had a good laugh watching this show, and felt entertained through its entirety. I have no idea why people are rating it 1/10, at least be honest with yourself and give this a 6-7/10 which it deserves when compared to some of the other supposed top comedy shows that are out at the moment, like How I met your mother which has gone completely downhill.

The three main leads have good chemistry together and I feel like as the show builds upon itself and we get to know the characters more, it will only get funnier.

Love it.... Really really love it.Wish it would last for more seasons. Enjoyed each and every episode and each and every character. Am giving it 9.5 🌟 Stars with a 0.5 less for cutting short such an amazing story line in just 2 seasons

There are many shows that I like for very different reasons. For example, the reasons I like The Big Bang Theory are dissimilar to the reasons I like Parks and Rec, or Modern Family, or even The Neighbors. I found this to be true for Ground Floor as well.

I've read all the reviews on IMDb, and if you read a review where someone rates this show a 1/10, then you know that person is just being rude and cynical for their own perverted pleasure and nothing more. They think it's cool or hip to undermine a show. It's not, however it is sad.

My reasoning for giving this show a 8/10 is very simple, I enjoyed the story. Is Ground Floor some new paradigm shifting show that'll transform the world of situational comedies in the 21st century? No, but then again, its not trying to be.

Many of the shows out there today are just copies of copies. This can be said for about 85 percent of the new sitcoms that aired this Fall on network TV. But even the very worse show on TV doesn't deserve a 1/10. This snarky new fad of putting every thing down is pathetic.

The fact is, I enjoyed the show. I laughed at the jokes, enjoyed the characters, reveled at the chemistry of the love interests and felt a sense of nostalgia for a few cast members. What more can I ask for from a show? People, we have a Big Bang Theory and a Modern Family, and now, we have a Ground Floor, a little show with a big heart. And I predict it'll only get better as it matures.

So Give this show a chance and see if its for you because chances are, you're looking for a little heart with your laughs.

This show appears to be an example what happens when one party appears to no longer be trying and another party is trying WAAAAYYY to hard to salvage what is being filmed. This is far from Bill Lawrence's strongest effort. Writing wise, it just isn't there. I take it as a bad sign when I'm watching a comedy when I find myself waiting to actually laugh. I have to honestly ask myself if this was a dare that he had to perform in order to get another season of Cougar Town, or if he is doing this to protest some of TBS' programing decisions where they renew barely watchable shows ("Sullivan and Son" and "Men at Work") and not renewing watchable and likable shows (Wedding Band).

John McGinley is totally wasted on this show. His performance is that of a person that senses that he is involved in some weak sauce and is trying way to hard to make it watchable.
