100 Questions

This is a very fluffy and fairly mediocre show, to be sure, but it's not as terrible as some of the reviewers have stated. In terms of the comedic timing, laugh-track, set, and cast (despite being mostly American), the show looks and feels much more like a typical British sitcom than anything else NBC has aired in recent memory, including "The Office." Depending on your taste, this can be either good or bad. I first watched it because of Sophie Winkleman's presence as the main character. However, "100 Questions" is a more broad comedy than her former vehicle--the sharp and funny "Peep Show"--and will not necessarily appeal to the same demographic. Still, I found the silliness has grown on me, and I'll even be sad when the show is inevitably canceled.

100 Questions? I have but one...why? Are the networks so desperate that they have to put on crap like this? Okay, I guess that's two questions. This show is a formulaic Friends rip-off that is Obviously NBC's effort to recapture their glory days. The acting is stiff and stale. The characters are retreads of every sitcom twenty-something ever devised. Let me breaking down like this: Jill (the vapid blond)= Phoebe from Friends or Chrissy from Three's company; Leslie (materialistic, spoiled chick)=Friend's Rachel; Wayne (ladies man)=Joey; Mike (nervous, unlucky at love professional)=Chandler/Ross amalgam; Charlotte (level headed brunette)=Monica. The rip off characters are acted so poorly that I had a hard time sitting through this show. I figured I would give it a chance and try it again. My 12 year old watched it with me and literally asked the question, "Is this supposed to be Friends?"

I've been looking for a new show to watch this summer and stumbled on 100 Questions, the other night. I actually laughed out loud 3 times during the show. I was really entertained and found it a witty, sweet and enjoyable half an hour. So much so that I was disappointed as the show came to a close for the night and am anticipating next week's episode. I also loved that How I Met your Mother followed so I could watch one great show followed by repeats of another show I love.

David Walton, I particularly love in the show. He does a great job portraying Wayne. The characters are lovable and relate able and remind me of my group of friends. Definitely Check it out!

I was shocked at the hatred in some of these reviews. I figure either they are frustrated critic wanna be's or TV is the crutch they need to get thru life. This was a delightful little comedy that was entertaining and funny. Plus a couple of dramatic moments that gave promise for the future. The cast was excellent with one weak point. The short guy that couldn't say a pick up line was a little weak but given time I am sure he will improve. Perhaps it is the character and not the actor. The British girl was both charming and pretty. I will take this over How I Met Your Mom any day. HIMYM is based on sex. Barney & Robin have no redeeming values what so ever. The main point is that this is only TV. It is not a solution to life nor is it a religion. Just enjoy it or change channels, but try to contain your hatred.

I think the British show "Coupling" is funnier, but not that much funnier. This show is kinda funny, not laugh out loud funny, but funny enough as TV goes. Coupling isn't all THAT funny either. I like the characters on Coupling better, though. The characters on this show are more realistic. Coupling's characters are more exaggerated, caricatured. Office is a better cop of a British show, but I don't think it's as funny as the British version either. Seems the British are more willing to have outrageous characters, along the lines of Seinfeld's Kramer. The characters on this show are about as outrageous as the ones on Friends. I think they'd do better to make the characters less believable, more outrageous.
