One Big Happy

You will enjoy this if you dont take this seriously. i mean look at the basic plot of the show. it is a comedy. the plot has potential to go some where and generrate really funny situations. and it was going somewhere when it got cancelled. i wished it lasted few more episodes. shame it was a great premise for a sitcom. ofcourse it was not perfect. but they could have done a lot with this story line and characters.

I thought I would like this but after suffering through the first episode and some of the second, I decided it's not strong enough to pass time each week in front of the boob tube. Even Ellen Degeneres producing this couldn't make it funny.

The rhythm is off that the actors wait for the joke's payoff, and the joke's aren't always funny or worth the wait. I don't believe Elisha as an overly organized lesbian, or her relationship with Nick Zano as her roommate/best friend/baby daddy. Kelly Brock is OK I guess, but I don't believe her chemistry with Nick Zano's character. The friends are funny, little bit players that add dimension to a very flat show.

Cute cast but not enough to carry this sitcom. Bummer. I miss the days of really solid sitcoms on network TV.

I really enjoyed this show, and no, I'm not being paid to say that. I love the characters, the dialogue has plenty of snap, crackle, and pop, and the producers of Smallville, among other shows, owe Kelly Brock an apology for writing such a blah character for her that American audiences didn't get to see what a charismatic presence she can be. I enjoyed the stories and storylines not just because they were interesting in and of themselves, not just because it was nice to see lesbian characters in stories that neither ignored their identity nor treated it as something inherently different from all the other situations that are mined for comedy, but because they're not the same old sitcom storylines we've seen over and over and over.

Also, I want pretty much everything in Prudence's wardrobe, especially the dresses, especially the dress in the pilot with the pink print. Prudence included would be nice.

There are positives to this show: the energy, the look of the show, decent cast (except the male lead, Nick Zano is a good straight man in other sitcoms, but terrible when allowed to emote)

His performance and the embarrassingly piped-in laugh-track, and 'woo' track, and the writing is corny. So far, of the post 'Happy Endings' alum, this is the worst. Marry Me and Weird Loners are far superior. Benched was even a little better than One Big Happy. New Girl with Marlon Wayans Jr, doesn't really count as he left the show and returned to it. The best of these don't rely on the fake laugh track. I'm starting to loathe Big Bang Theory too - which relies too heavily on it.

All in all, the gags, as quirky and loud as they are, don't work. But there are worse shows.

I enjoyed the show, I thought it was pretty funny and weird. Which are two of my favorite things. I hope it doesn't get canceled and we get to see some sort of character development. In the pilot you get to meet the main characters and their goals, which is important in starting out a sit-com. I found the jokes pretty funny and random which makes it quite fun and quirky. The short half-an-hour had quite a bit of content and you can easily see the running gags in the show. It remains to be seen if they're going to become annoying or catch on like the famous "Bazinga" or "Knock-Knock-Knock Penny". Overall, I'm excited to see another episode to see if I can really indulge myself in it. Been looking for a new sit- com to watch. I hope others can see the potential and humour in the show to make it popular.
