Odd Mom Out

Well, that's a nice surprise. I only saw the pilot but this seems like a good comedy. Lots of pluses not any actual minus.

First of all, I prefer comedies that lack the awful fake laugh track (just wrote a review for another new comedy that has it). Odd Mom Out hasn't got one so that's something I endorse.

It's about the lives of some ultra-wealthy wives and moms, who live in Upper East Side New York. What they have in money they lack in other areas, so the series presents them more like caricatures. You know lacquered socialites, that only know about fashion and nose-jobs and charities. Women who think that are better because of their ...husbands wealth. It sets up nicely so far with the introduction of another female character who is actually an ER doctor, to give some contrast.

The humor seems good. Witty and refreshing and satirical. And I'm starting to give credit to the direction too.

Jill Kargman plays a version of herself as I'm reading. She is OK to her role, so far.

Overall: Seems good. I'll keep watching.

I sort of understand why this show will not appeal to many. It's funny and satirical and although it has all the prerequisites of being, it is not your everyday all American humor. Although the plot is nothing new I think that in a way it is really smart, since it's rich vs. flirty rich, so in its core there is something utterly funny and a source of constant ridicule.

The main character is at first sight annoying, but as we can see half way through the first season we can see that she is more complex then we think, so she seems 'more real' than the rest, but I find that quite interesting and appealing.

Some of the other characters are beyond limits caricatured, so that adds to the comedy element of the show, without leaving you wondering 'why is this happening?.

All in all I really think that everyone who is looking for a pinch of fresh comedy and wants to watch something new, should definitely give this show a go without taking into consideration its (unfair) ratings or the simplicity of the plot.

Bravo you made a huge mistake In canceling this incredibly funny, well written, excellently acted show!!!

Good:

• funny moments
• nice-ish story
• most actors are nice looking

Bad:

• Since the title is odd mom out you'd expect it to be more about mothers... not mothers who outsource parenting 99%.
• You can just feel the political bs in real life oozing into this
• It gets sooo annoying, mainly because of all the women
• I find Jill very unattractive, maybe it's the red lipstick with the pitch black hair, I don't know... the more I watch the worse she gets and Brooke gets prettier, no idea why - don't get me wrong, both are annoying af

Most tv shows are bad at the start then get better, this one starts high but then just goes down

Clever, quirky, mischievous writing. Kargman is a genius.

But I skipped forward to all her scenes with Andy Buckley. I loved that portrayal of a marriage - the humor and the rapport.

Buckley is totally adorable and should be a much bigger star. He should be getting James Garner type roles.
