Broke

Pauley Perrette deserves a better show than this lame sitcom.

Total garbage!!! CBS threw a show at Pauley Perrette to shut her up ...shows what happens when she is the head character..she cannot hack it !! A total waste of time !!

Somebody call a plumber. Broke is another stinker of a sitcom that is headed for the toilet. I wasted five minutes of my time watching the pilot of this one one screaming, "Please make the canned laughter stop!" Can any person out there find just one good sitcom writer? It seems to me that these newer sitcoms are killing the comedy genre. Such a shame:-(

Why did someone believe Pauley Perrette could be the lead in a comedy? She might have generated a chuckle on NCIS, but never did her performance indicate the had the timing of a comedy actor. The premise of the show is somewhat standard by today's standards: single mom with son has a family member return hope, in this case a sister, and hijinks result as the Jeffersons have to move in with the Bunkers. Actually, that would be funnier. Here it's just a rich sister whose husband, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, has to accept he has lost the family fortune and now is living with a hardworking middle class sister-in-law; Has to be funny, right? Nope. No chemistry among cast members and plot just falls flat.I will be surprised if they run episode two, but with many viewers who love such dross, you never know.

Broken and unable to fix this comedy series, that is what Broke is. When will the writers strike ever end? It must be at least five (5) years since the writers strike first began because this type of cheap comedy just seems to keep popping up with same cheap and stale comedy shows each season. This so called comedy series is about a rich (now broke) sister and her husband who are desperate to move in with her working class sister and son because they have no other place to live. The working class sister holds down two jobs one of which she works at a tavern.

I can see where this is going and that's nowhere fast except to the proverbial "CANCELLED" series before it gets through ten (if their lucky enough) or so episodes. If I was starring in this series I would literally beg the producers to stop using that god awful canned laughter box and wait and see if the actors lines being delivered invoke any real laughs.

Broke and busted a 2 out of 10
