How We Roll

I get sick of all the trolls savaging a new program. I remember watching the first half dozen episodes of Cheers, Modern Family and the Middle. The jokes weren't that funny and the actors timing was off, but l thought, give it a chance.

All the shows and others went on to have. Vreat run. The writing improved and the actors found their timing and places.

Some of us are too quick to judge a show, a throw away.

Hey, give them a chance to prove you wrong!

After Watching the pilot, I thought the show was pretty funny and would watch it again however the the bowlingTechnique needs to be more realistic to a professional bowler. For example: The ball grip isn't proper for a high level bowler. Should be drilled to a fingertip grip.

Also his approach is amateur foe some who can bowl a 265. Improve on these things and the show is more believable.

But laugh track makes the show practically unwatchable. Cast is likeable, plot has promise. A show about chasing a dream tugs at my heartstrings and delivers just enough drama to keep me interested. Just dump the annoying, incessant laughtrack.

Get rid of the laugh track. We are not stupid. I would give it 2 more stars if not for that. The characters are good. The stories are funny. Again get of the stupid laugh track.

If the first episode is any indication, this is a bland, by-the-book sitcom. And it's a shame, because it's a waste of the talent of two of my favorite actors: Chi McBride and Julie White. The writing is pretty bad and the lead, Pete Holmes, is one of those comedians whose acting is too "acty." Some comedians are meant to stay stand up comics and not become actors - he is one.

I will watch a few more episodes in the hopes that maybe the production and writing staff after this pilot do a much better job than thos starter.
