Steven Weber (Jack Nagle) couldn't quite carry this show enough..... ... ... ..... .... Chris Elliot (Larry Heckman) is a sure fire way for poor ratings when he's a major cast member... ...... ......... ........ ......... .......... ........ ... ..... .... The woman who played Katie (Paula Marshall) the (pretend) lesbian was a cutie who I think is absolutely adorable............ But her lines were too weak. I've never been a fan of Amy Pietz (except for Caroline in the City)... .... .... .... ... .... ... ...... ....... ...... ..... ...... .... ... .. ..There were Cursed / Steven Weber shows that were rather funny and others that simply stunk....................................................It should have been given more time to find it's audience...............................................(Remember Seinfeld & Cheers weren't hits early on.)

You can tell a show is doomed when they change the name after the first episode has aired. Why even bother? Just cancel it now and save us the agony of watching the show die! Another sign of doom is that they change the theme song. And, of course, strike three is that Chris Elliott was in it (and as a doctor?!?). Steve Weber is a capable actor and we can never see enough of Amy Pietz.But I agree with the language comment. I think it's time for an "L" rating to count the number of garbage words in a show. Too bad we don't have writers and producers who know how to produce quality entertainment.

The series was cursed from the start (no pun intended). I am totally amazed that this show is still on the air. If not for its timeslot, it would have been cancelled by now. The cast is not to blame - the writers are. Steven Weber is a fine actor as is Amy Pietz, but this show is not meant for them... they made a mistake taking these roles...

I like practically everyone involved with this show, especially the mesmerizingly odd Chris Elliot and Amy Pietz, about the sexiest thing on two legs. And Weber is the perfect stone-faced star, especially considering what keeps happening to him (ala Keaton, Buster).The show has promise, but its potty-mouth dialog is tedious and tired. And aside from Elliot, the laughs are thin and far between.This year, I down-grade any show that uses a-- (what happened to "bottom," "hinder," "fanny" "back-side," et. al.?). It's a touchstone for childish writing. The premier already set a record as I actually lost count.
