Georgie e Mandy - Seu Primeiro Casamento

It felt like I stepped back into 2005. The laugh track was overused, the jokes were over the top, and the plot of the first episode felt pointless. The characters are lacking depth and feel more one dimensional compared the shows predecessors. I would have preferred the format to follow that of Young Sheldon as the format with the laugh track doesn't seem to fit. The show does have redeeming qualities with past favorites from YS appearing and the storyline fitting. The opening title theme is an interesting one, but goes well as it gives into the comedy that the writers seemed to be looking to give the show.

It is annoying, distracting, and completely pointless. Either bring in a studio audience like The Big Bang Theory, or do without completely it like Young Sheldon. Seriously, it is even worse than the one used on How I Met Your Mother (which is saying something).

Other than that, this show has promise. The pilot episode is a bit clunky, but that is true for most shows. Given enough time, this could be a pretty good spinoff (of a spinoff).

Seriously get rid of that horrendous laugh track. Even if it cured cancer, ended racism, stopped hunger, and brought about world peace... it still wouldn't be worth it.

It's a great show, so far. The characters are great, and the actors are still amazing. The laugh track will definitely take some getting used to since these characters don't have a history of having one in the background. There didn't seem to be very much actual show time. There seemed to be a ton of commercials. My biggest issue, at this point, has to be the music. The credit/opening sequence, with the dancing and the horrible music, might be fine in other shows, but it doesn't come close to working put for this show. To make matters worse, we have to here it over and over. It's terribly difficult, but I'll do my best to ignore it......for now.

After watching the first six episodes, I keep hoping this show will grow on me. I really liked the Georgie and Mandy's characters on "Young Sheldon", but the actors now seem to be playing caricatures of those characters - it's like they are silly versions compared to how they were played on "Young Sheldon". I don't know if they're overacting or playing for laughs - but something just isn't working.

And definitely get rid of the canned laughter. It is annoying as he'll.

Nothing against the actor but the character of Mandy's brother is useless and does not contribute to the story lines. Same goes for the shop mechanic.

This review is solely based on the first episode. I'll update the review after the season finale. First of all, it's great that we're still getting content for the Big Bang Theory "universe". I enjoyed most of BBT, and really enjoyed Young Sheldon even more in many ways. With Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage (G&MFM), we get the same wonderful characters from Young Sheldon from Mandy's side, with thankfully cameos from Georgie's family, such as his mom and MeeMaw (who I wish were also regulars or at least frequent recurring cast). The story so far is just ok, it's basically about the couple trying to survive while raising a daughter, while also dealing with Mandy's parents. All of that is decent so far. Here's some things that desperately need to change though: (1) As most of the other reviews mention - The laugh track/audience NEEDS to go, it's both annoying and dated. One of the biggest changes from BBT to Young Sheldon was the removal of the laugh track, and that made the series much more enjoyable so we the viewers can focus on the characters/story. I really hope they reconsider and remove it. (2) Mandy's mom for some reason seems different in character compared to her character on Young Sheldon. It's not just her hairstyle, but it almost feels like she forgot how to act like the character. I actually enjoyed her character on Young Sheldon, so I think the director needs to do a better job at directing the cast to be consistent with their characters. But I'll give that a pass for now since it's just the first episode. (3) The music choice throughout the episode is really unfitting. Using it in the opening credits actually fits because they're dancing (and I actually like it), but using it throughout the episodes feels so random because none of them are Argentinean nor is there any tango dancing theme throughout the show, especially with it being so loud too. I would expect softer, pop-rock background music like in Young Sheldon, or at least music you'd hear in Texas or Mandy's family, in that specific time frame. Hopefully they fix that as well, or at least turn it down a bit because both the laugh track/audience and random tango music is loud and distracting. That's my feedback for now. I'll update again once the season ends.
