The Class

This was a very underrated show. Every time I saw Jason Ritter doing physical comedy I could see his father John. It was a great ensemble cast and had the potential of rivaling "Friends". With David Keith's performance of Yonk Allen ex Philadelphia Eagle's quarterback and Lizzy Caplan's cynical character marks a wonderful cast. I could never warm up to The Big Bore er Bang Theory.

The Class is the all new CBS show from Friends creator David Crane.I find this show one of the best sitcoms on T.V and if promoted better could become a classic.The basic premise of the show follows a bunch different characters who were in the same third grade class meeting up twenty years later at a reunion party.Certain members become friends and soon The Class follows three basic story lines.Story 1 follows Nicole a woman married to an NFL star who develops feelings for her ex boyfriend and current home renovator Duncan.Story 2 follows twin sisters Kat and Lina,and while Kat and new friend Ethan begin to bond Lina and her bad lucked,clumsy boyfriend run into many relationship obstacles.Story 3 follow Kyle a married homosexual being do favors by his high school girlfriend Holly who is married to a man who is seemingly gay.The Class has some lovable and original characters who each have a distinct personality which is a fresh change for T.V these days.The show is written brilliantly because they find a way for every storyline to progress further and further in a way that isn't boring or predictable.They end every episode with an unexpected cliffhanger which is an intelligent way to keep viewers interested and keep each episode new and fresh.The Richie/Lina storyline much like the Ross/Rachel storyline is who we all hope stays together and when they break up it's devastating because we know both Richie and Lina truly love each other.I love the originality and i love how every episode continues instead of everything being reset.The Class is one of my favorite T.V shows ever,I pray for Season 2.

I agree! I love "The Class" and think it's getting better, and the plot lines are starting to become clearer. At the beginning of the season, everything was kinda all over the place, but now it's settling down, in a way, and I think it has great potential to be the next "Friends" or "Seinfeld" if you give it a chance. In comparison with the bucket full of dramas on ABC and NBC this September (By the way- Nothing against them- Just Saying) It's good that CBS is getting some good comedy out there. So lets just stop watching reruns of Friends in hope it gets renewed and stop watching our box sets of 24 waiting for January and tune in on Mondays!

Okay, so "The Class" was never going to rank up there with the absolute classics of television. But for what it was (a light-hearted romp full of relatively well-to-do people in their late twenties and early thirties), it was something good, and had the potential to be the next "Friends". "The Class" was a way to spend a nice half-hour in a rose-tinted world, where characters such as Ethan, Kat, Richie and Lina just ask to be hugged without even saying anything. And yet despite pleasing enough ratings (from the looks of it, anyway), it gets axed. Which is a real shame, as the series was engaging enough to merit lasting around at least two or three more seasons. "The Class" gets played on E4 and/or Channel 4 in the UK, like many of the American hits do over this side of the Atlantic. If only the silly network bosses in the States allowed it to be a lasting hit...like I said, this could have been the next "Friends".

This show is about a group of "strangers" that knew each other back in third grade. They have a reunion of sort and reconnect. Old flames spark, new relationships blossom as well as new friendships and of course there are the old habits that die hard (or maybe not).

I like this show it's funny and thou it needs to mature a little I still think it's worth watching (and waiting for it to grow). The actors have good chemistry between them and the writing is just plain funny. Watch out for Duncan and Nicole (will they or won't they), Richie and Lina (so cute) and Kat and Ethan (proof that friendship between guys and girls is possible…at least on TV) If you're looking for a half hour of uncomplicated fun to watch comedy this is a good choice.
