I've given this show half a season, more or less. I like Zach Braff and really hoped for something special. Unfortunately... it's just very "blah". The premise, to me, is extremely dated. I'm sure, obviously, there is still a lot of risk in starting a "vlog" as a sole source of income. But.... this really feels more relevant in 2008 than in 2018. The risks, rewards, perils, etc are pretty well defined at this point. This makes everything about the story feel dated and trite. In the end, it feels like they fight to lay standard sit-com tropes over a "fresh" concept that is anything but fresh. Ten episodes. I can't really see giving it more of a chance. :\

It might just be that I like my sitcoms edgier, but I found the first episode too packaged, too diluted, too manufactured in a network conference room. Maybe like a show produced by a machine that has been developed to make "hit sitcoms" versus humans who are funny actually gathering in a room to write a funny sitcom. I don't want to generalize network vs. cable/streaming because there are some other network shows I find appealing, but if "network" has a stereotype of "appeal to the masses because they are too dumb to understand clever writing," this would be a good representation of that. I was just disappointed b/c I enjoy Zach Braff & wanted it to be better.

I really want to like this show. I love Braff. But I cannot watch his costar (the wife)without cringing. I have watched 7 episodes, and am giving up. I am disappointed. Perhaps the plot line would have eventually made up for the jumbled beginning, but I couldn't watch long enough to see that happen.

Zach Braff did a number on me in this series. i don't see why this series will be renewed in the future.

Horrible casting and the script (OMG) was horrible. I hope i'm wrong but this really sucks because i really like Zach. He's a funny guy but he can't be in a specific setting especially this one.

The actors are decent but it isn't really worth your time. I watched the whole season and can understand why it was cancelled. There really isn't much interesting going on in the show at all. Most of the plot is standard boring stuff. I enjoyed Zach Braff in Scrubs though, and if you did it's probably worth checking this out at least, but it certainly isn't amazing. Watch it if you're really stuck for something to watch.
