Jann

I laughed quite a bit and felt emotional too. The first episode of this series I watched was episode five, "You've Been Soft Served."

Jann is hilarious. Her demeanour and self-deprecating humour is fantastic and appropriate.

This episode, which I stumbled across after leaving an episode of Bob's Burgers run too long, opened my eyes. Jann's performance is superb. I want to watch more.

I was pleasantly surprised by the first season. I'm only vaguely familiar with Jann Arden's music but decided to give this a shot. The pilot was a bit iffy, but it quickly got better and grew on me. Loved Jann and especially the supporting cast. Whole thing was a lot of fun.

But as others have noted, the second season takes a radically different approach with Jann's character, and ramps up all the worst parts to 11. It's especially noticeable and jarring if you're binge-watching. At the end of season one she's a normal person with good and bad attributes, and at the beginning of the second season she's an obnoxious, self-absorbed jacka$$ who never exhibits any of the charm or warmth she originally had. I'm not sure what happened in the writer's room or why anyone felt this was funny or engaging, but it's neither. Hopefully season three rectifies this since the first season was so enjoyable. But it's not yet on Hulu and the title is expiring soon so not sure I'll ever find out.

Jann Arden is so likable - it's about time she had her own show! She is a natural, and I love the integration of her classic hits. It's the most amazing walk down memory lane! The writing is bang on. Quick witted and clever - this is what Canadian television needs. Yes Jann, YES!

It started off playing in the background in my home office, and I enjoyed the humor, cameos and stories. This season has become just hilarious so far, and I have to say, Jann is a natural born entertainer... she shines in this series. Her acting is spot on, and I'll admit, she does a pretty good job playing the role of Jann Arden ;p It's a sitcom we didn't know we needed, and better than most of the garbage these huge American networks are giving us. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

Now I have no idea who this Jann person is, I just started watching a random comedy series and I got just that. This isn't a great show but it's goodish, much better than most new shows.
