Girls Club

Once again, David E. Kelley produced another crappy law show for Fox (and this after "Ally McBeal" got canned which was the best thing Fox had done in a LONG time), and by crappy, I DO mean crappy.

First off, how in the HELL could three friends be in the same law firm in the same city? In reality isn't that not likely? If my question is true than that just shows how DUMB T.V.'s been anymore. Besides, the three main characters, are whiny, and bratty, and for the most part: They were just plain annoying. This show was so bad I wanted to throw the remote at the T.V. due to how utterly bad this show was. Pretty much the usual crap we'd expect from the overrated David E. Kelley.

Frankly, the bottom line is that this show sucked, and I for one, was glad that it got canned. Garbage like this shouldn't be on T.V.

This gets no stars.

It wasn't until the second week or so of seeing 'World's Funniest Movie Outtakes' or 'Wackiest Holiday Moments' following 'Boston Public' that I realized something was up with 'Girls Club.' I then visited IMDb only to learn that the show I was actually going to make an effort to watch was canceled after only two episodes. Now I'm mad.

Why would they cancel this? I'm not saying that 'Girls Club' was destined to be something great, because it was pulled off the air before it ever really got to develop into something.....but, the two episodes that did air seemed to be really good. FOX has the nerve to take this show off while they leave pathetic shows such as 'Celebrity Boxing' and 'Bootcamp' on for an entire season!

The show was off to a good start. The cast was very much enjoyable. Kathleen Robertson is a good actress. Gretchen Mol is a good actress. Chyler Leigh is a very good actress. So what's the problem? The three of them worked together well. It was a likeable cast.

The writing was decent. Actually I was quite impressed with it. Some of it made me laugh, but being that it is a drama and not a comedy, there isn't supposed to be that much laughter and that's alright.

The plots and storylines involved with each character seemed to be okay. Jeannie Falls' problem looked interesting. Lynne Camden's whole problem (or several problems) seemed entertaining. And Sarah Mickle's character alone seemed to be the best of the three. The plots weren't boring at all.

I think that David E. Kelley just needs to take a break and breathe for a while. I mean he's had successful hits with 'Ally McBeal', 'Boston Public', and 'The Practice.' He's done television for years. Kelley's come up with some real losers though, like 'Ally' and 'Snoops.' He tries to do so much in television, especially with FOX, but just doesn't know when to call it quits. His shows are beginning to turn into the same thing and he definitely needs to move away from the whole law firm deal. Venture out, David. You might like what you see.

So, 'Girls Club' got the axe entirely too soon. This was one viewer that would have continued watching. Everything was just right about the show, but for some terrible reason, TV has done it again: they've taken a show which appeals to me and at least five others, and canceled it without even giving it a chance. Yes, FOX, I'm sure that airing stupid 'Outtakes' and such is a much better idea and I bet you're just raking in the ratings with that garbage.

And look what happened... god-awful ratings and come on, is anyone surprised? Why do they even try such shows when historically they all have crashed! You don't even have to watch 'girl's club' to know it's awful. It has to be.

There was another lawyer show 'First Years', last yr on NBC that sank spectacularly too. I think viewers know what show will crash among a zillion fall debuts. 'girls club' was too obviously a failure.

Contrary to the aweful reviews this show has gotten, I was happily surprised at how edgey and fun it was. My best friends and I watch it together, and have our own 'girls club'. Some say it is too 'girly' but hey, they are girls! I loved pretty much everything about the show. David E. Kelley continues with the brilliant writing that got him to be a favorite at the Emmy's. I think people need to give this show a chance before writing it off after just two episodes. The storylines are pretty original, and it shows more of the emotional lives and aspects, rather than JUST the courtroom. 4 stars in my book.

This show was absolutely awful. I am almost irrationally fond of David E. Kelley's shows, but this inane drama deserved its poor ratings and the critics' savage reviews. The three leads were insufferably whiny, and were quite possibly the least sympathetic characters on television since "Melrose Place." I found myself rooting against the young heroines, who seemed more like spoiled brats than earnest young lawyers (or whatever they were supposed to be).

It was, I understand, primarily David E. Kelley's decision to cancel the show, so for once, Fox is off the hook. Anyhow, Kelley is still a great talent, and I look forward to his future projects.
