Carol's Second Act

Maybe I am the only person who can relate to this show. I will enjoy it for as long as it lasts. Seeing Kyle McLaughlin was a thrill (I named my son after him).

I hope this gets better. 1 episode in and it's a dumpster fire. So much talent going to waste ... I'm sad :(

I will give it a few more episodes to try and keep me. Thank goodness they have a self proclaimed "queer" as an intern just like every other series on TV. Truly ground breaking stuff. They do more yapping than doctoring. This is terrible. Sorry, Patti.

I am not sure what people expect from a sitcom? It's amusing and light hearted, something enjoyable to watch and have a innocent laugh at. This is no different to other sitcoms that have lasted 4 or more seasons. What the one with one of her co-stars - "baby daddy" - it lasted 6 seasons! What about "Mom", "Bless this mess", "The neighborhood" etc, etc... I like them for what they are - i am not unintelligent - I like dramas, documentaries, romance, crime etc - I watch it all. But sometimes it's nice to sit and watch 20 minutes of harmless fun!! I don't expect hard hitting journalism when i pick up a gossip rag - realize what you are tuning in to and stop criticizing it like it's supposed to help you cure cancer!!! For those that want more intelligent writing for Patricia's character - did you watch Raymond? The Middle? I really think sitcoms are not for you. All sitcoms are stupid and unrealistic - an escape from the everyday world - so lighten up and just appreciate it's light hearted fun. It is a pity - i like the fact that they introduced Kelsey Grammar into the show.

First, get rid of the laugh track. Second, make the characters people, not archetypes. Third, let a character besides Heaton have some wisdom. Fourth, get rid of the laugh track.

"Scrubs" did the medical interns-over-their-heads story better. Unfortunately, I don't see a lot of potential for this show to rise above its mediocre opening without a major overhaul.
