One Big Happy

You will enjoy this if you dont take this seriously. i mean look at the basic plot of the show. it is a comedy. the plot has potential to go some where and generrate really funny situations. and it was going somewhere when it got cancelled. i wished it lasted few more episodes. shame it was a great premise for a sitcom. ofcourse it was not perfect. but they could have done a lot with this story line and characters.

There are positives to this show: the energy, the look of the show, decent cast (except the male lead, Nick Zano is a good straight man in other sitcoms, but terrible when allowed to emote)

His performance and the embarrassingly piped-in laugh-track, and 'woo' track, and the writing is corny. So far, of the post 'Happy Endings' alum, this is the worst. Marry Me and Weird Loners are far superior. Benched was even a little better than One Big Happy. New Girl with Marlon Wayans Jr, doesn't really count as he left the show and returned to it. The best of these don't rely on the fake laugh track. I'm starting to loathe Big Bang Theory too - which relies too heavily on it.

All in all, the gags, as quirky and loud as they are, don't work. But there are worse shows.

Elisha Cuthbert is a star, but this character is poorly conceived and poorly written. I'd love to see her in something with smarter writing. It's not too late to bring back Happy Endings, is it? The other characters don't give us much to latch on to. Nick Zano is white bread. Kelly Brook seems to be acting with her boobs. Meanwhile, I'm not a fan of laugh tracks in general, but I find this one particularly loud and annoying to the point of distraction. I'd love to see Elisha Cuthbert in something with smarter writing. Is it too late to bring back Happy Endings?

One Big Happy appears to have been hastily conceived and dashed off. After watching 2 eps, it's off my list.

I enjoyed the show, I thought it was pretty funny and weird. Which are two of my favorite things. I hope it doesn't get canceled and we get to see some sort of character development. In the pilot you get to meet the main characters and their goals, which is important in starting out a sit-com. I found the jokes pretty funny and random which makes it quite fun and quirky. The short half-an-hour had quite a bit of content and you can easily see the running gags in the show. It remains to be seen if they're going to become annoying or catch on like the famous "Bazinga" or "Knock-Knock-Knock Penny". Overall, I'm excited to see another episode to see if I can really indulge myself in it. Been looking for a new sit- com to watch. I hope others can see the potential and humour in the show to make it popular.

so the sitcom is okay the idea is new and fresh yet the execution was so weak and no where on point.

I don't know maybe it's the Cast or the writer Liz Feldman but i know that a 100% i didn't even giggle for once ..

I really love Ellen DeGeneres but i believe she jumped into producing this show just out of pity on her friend Liz and it was not a good idea.

Elisha Cuthbert and Nick Zano used too much of talking with the "dumb,,dumb" voice in the beginning... I don't know what Kelly Brook is doing !! like seriously why !! just two big b00bs with a couple of censored nudity scenes ...

Elisha Cuthbert's performance was so unconvincing as a lesbian. In happy endings she was hilarious ,, yet to be fair Nick Zano's was okay presenting the naive rational pretty face,,, but seriously thou the whole cast acted that way ,, i mean at least bring up a character who acts like knowing everything and acting smarter than everybody just to change the stupidity tone a bit.

overall i didn't really think it's a comedy worthy of watching... it might be good but so not good enough.
