weak functioning sitcom
Alex Meyers (Amanda Peet) is a divorced lawyer with daughter Charlie (Joey King). She's looking to renovate her kitchen. She hires Pete Riggins (David Walton) and his haphazard crew; Clem (J.B. Smoove), Vlad (Pasha D. Lychnikoff), and rookie Gary (Jesse Plemons). In her life, Alex has boyfriend Ben (Matt Letscher), sister Screwsie (Margo Harshman), and father Walt Riggins (Jeffrey Tambor).
This is the traditional sitcom of a smart hot gal who's looking for love. All the standard characters are here. They are played by good likable actors. But the writing is just not up to snuff. There aren't enough jokes. There are only 6 episodes. It never found it's voice. Maybe the concept was professionally written up by veterans but they definitely needed better writers to tighten up the scripts.
