This show appears to be an example what happens when one party appears to no longer be trying and another party is trying WAAAAYYY to hard to salvage what is being filmed. This is far from Bill Lawrence's strongest effort. Writing wise, it just isn't there. I take it as a bad sign when I'm watching a comedy when I find myself waiting to actually laugh. I have to honestly ask myself if this was a dare that he had to perform in order to get another season of Cougar Town, or if he is doing this to protest some of TBS' programing decisions where they renew barely watchable shows ("Sullivan and Son" and "Men at Work") and not renewing watchable and likable shows (Wedding Band).
John McGinley is totally wasted on this show. His performance is that of a person that senses that he is involved in some weak sauce and is trying way to hard to make it watchable.

It's a show from Bill Lawrence and co-stars John C. McGinley so it's no surprise that the show is pretty damn funny. (Scrubs was amazing). Sklar Astin's Brody periodically acts a little like JD from Scrubs and John's character is much like a softer Dr. Cox. Which is never a bad thing. There aren't a whole lot of sitcoms or shows in general that can be this good this early on. The chemistry between the stars is pitch perfect(ha), the writing is sharp as a whip, and its just so much fun to watch. HATE the laugh track but its not as synthetic sounding as with most other programs. I've only seen a couple episodes but I have high hopes for Ground Floor. This. Is. The. One. To. Watch. Very funny.
I saw the trailer on TV and decided to watch the show because of Briga Heelan.
The show has a good cast and a simple enough premise of an office comedy. Characters aren't really over the top, although a few have really strong personalities. My biggest surprise was seeing John C. McGinley, who plays Dr Cox in Scrubs and I loved his character in that show and he plays something similar here.
I had a good laugh watching this show, and felt entertained through its entirety. I have no idea why people are rating it 1/10, at least be honest with yourself and give this a 6-7/10 which it deserves when compared to some of the other supposed top comedy shows that are out at the moment, like How I met your mother which has gone completely downhill.
The three main leads have good chemistry together and I feel like as the show builds upon itself and we get to know the characters more, it will only get funnier.

When a new comedy starts in a channel I watch it and secretly pray to be really funny. But almost every time I end up to stop it within the first 5 minuter. Unfortunately "Ground Floor" in not an exception. Bad jokes and this fake laugh is a nightmare.
What is going on with comedy shows these days? They are not funny at all. Series like "Supernatural" or "Castle" are more funny than the comedy shows.
Well, it's not nice for a show to be canceled but I'm afraid that "Ground Floor" has very limited time on TV like so many others before.
I hope someone either writer or producer or channel will care and try to make a really good comedy show like the ones we've used to watch in the previous decades.

O M G. I only knew about this show because I like to catch old reruns of Married With Children on the notoriously unfunny channel, TBS. Due to the ridiculous storyline, I knew I would not be carving out time to catch this dullard of a comedy, any time soon. One boring day, I thought it would be convenient to watch an episode on Comcast ONDEMAND. At least I could fast forward through the boring parts if it got stupid.
I eventually had to turn it off. I saw the episode where that guy from Spring Awakening had to decide between going to a baseball game with his boss and going to the game with that girl on the ground floor. Needless to say, I will never know what he did because I couldn't take the cheap puns and ridiculous overacting. The supporting, no name actors probably get stuck with the worst material. But hey, we all have to make a buck don't we.
I will say that I like the fact that the producers choose to cast a beautiful lead actress that isn't the size of a pencil. I think that Skylar guy from Pitch Perfect would be more believable if they had cast him as the gay best friend. Anyway, the show sucks, find something on cable that would make you laugh. Peace
