Marnie et Nate

I got this show from an internet download (I don't live in the US. I wasn't expecting much but I really was impressed. My g/f and I loved it, even from the pilot. The main guy reminds me of Ben Stiller or Jason Lee - if you like the awkwardness of 'Meet the parents' you'll probably enjoy this show. Nice to see someone taking a few chances with sitcom, it touches on several points concerning race and disability, always getting close to the edge but without offending anyone. A nice surprise was that the supporting players are all good, esp the guy in the wheelchair. Apparently my comment didn't contain enough lines so I'll add that in one episode they used a real cat, which surprised me, normally a sitcom would use some awful puppet.

I really do like this show for the most part. I have seen it four or five times and it has never ceased to make me laugh. Josh Cooke has got to be one of the most attractive men on television right now and surprisingly, his comic timing is dead on. The only reason I do not watch the show more is because of Jennifer Finnigan. I just want to smack her. She is the only unfunny part of the show. It is completely unbelievable that Cooke's character would be with her. I honestly believe that she will be the downfall of this show.

Otherwise, the show is clever with some fresh material. It is always a joy to watch people who are more neurotic than you are.

I am INCREDIBLY glad that there is finally a sitcom on TV that I can sit down and laugh at. This show is a breath of fresh air and a much needed break from all the crime shows and court dramas on TV today. It's rare when a TV show can make me physically laugh out loud when I'm with a group of people, let alone when I'm sitting in a room by myself, and this show does just that. :) I'm VERY VERY happy that this show was renewed for the rest of the season and I truly hope this show can stick around for the long haul. Hopefully more people will jump on the bandwagon soon and realize what an amazing show this truly is.

To everyone at "Committed", if you're reading this, congratulations on a job well done! You all are amazing! :D And to anyone reading this: check out this show. You'd be surprised at what you're missing. :)

I mean, really, this show is new and cute. And, yes, I love Arrested Development, and the weird shows and the cynical ones but, this show is new and tries to do something different. Nate is hysterical, as is Tess and the clown is great!!! I admit that I thought it might be weird but, he is so funny that you forget that it is odd. And Marni is adorable! She is fresh and sweet, and although it seems contrived-one must remember that people like that look that contrived in real life. I think Jennifer Finnigan is doing an amazing job and I hope that the show stays on the air and gains great success! I truly think that those people that don't think it's funny are entitled to their opinion but, why believe that everything that you think is the end all and be all of funny? I don't like feeling like an idiot because of what I think is funny!

The double meaning in the title speaks for itself..

It's not your typical comedy/romance sitcom.. What I like about the show is it's not afraid to take a poke at political correctness gone mad.. It has a British comedy undertone, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the idea originated from.. It reminds me a bit of a hybrid crossing of Father Ted comedy series shown in Great Britian and Canada and a Norman Lear type production in the wake of All in the Family.. While Committed isn't as shocking, it certainly takes stabs at places television tends to avoid these days because its not safe..

I fear it won't last, if only because of the double meanings will be missed by a vast majority of viewers.. And some of the double meanings have the propensity to offend. That in itself is not a bad thing.. sometimes we need to be offended in order to realize how ridiculous some things are.. The story lines, while somewhat predictable at times, work because of the great chemistry the cast seems to have developed, including some great cameos early on.. I love Todd as the protaginistic, wheel chair bound third wheel, no pun intended.. Tom Poston is he usual dry self that works against the shtick back drop of the main characters.. I try never to miss the show.. and ensure my PC records it for my viewing pleasure.. If you like something irreverent, I highly recommend it.. If you are easily offended, be forewarned.. the show gets close to the edge of the envelope..
