I thought it was pretty good. I'll give it another episode or two before it goes on the DVR list though.

Mister J · 01-21-2011, 09:43 PM

I watched the first two episodes and I think that was plenty. There was only one couple that I found tolerable. I absolutely cannot stand that tall, goofy jackass hitched to the blonde.

They're trying too hard on the comedic aspects and it often came off more as ridiculous than relateable. I don't see this lasting long.

Catman · 01-22-2011, 09:52 PM

I think the show has potential.

TheComicbookKid · 01-22-2011, 10:06 PM

Christine Woods is hawt.

It's okay. I won't hate if it's cancelled but it's wery watchable unlike Outsourced.

Assassin · 01-23-2011, 02:28 AM

outsourced isn't the best show ever but it's very watchable

TheVileOne · 02-04-2011, 01:27 AM

I agree that Outsourced is watchable but not GREAT.

Perfect Couples, watched the first two episodes. Not really working. They are working way too hard on the gags. It feels like this should be a multi-camera sitcom instead of a single. I find the best friend and the blonde couple obnoxious. I just don't buy their schtick.

Siby · 02-04-2011, 06:47 AM

The blonde chick on Outsourced is super hot. She also reminds me a little of Nicole Kidman.

TheComicbookKid · 02-04-2011, 07:49 AM

I still like PC. Tried watching Outsourced but the train gag got old after the first attempt and I turned.

Was that Fat Neil from Community as the pizza guy?

StrainedEyes · 02-04-2011, 03:09 PM

I watched all three episodes of this that were on Hulu last week, and **** this horrible show.

The jokes are terrible and the characters are ridiculous.

Catman · 02-04-2011, 09:27 PM

You guys are over-reacting a bit. It's a silly show, but it's amusing.

Shifty · 02-04-2011, 09:51 PM

Might be making a timeslot change (or be replaced) terrible numbers even for NBC Thursdays.

Catman · 02-04-2011, 10:15 PM

That's gonna make Olivia Munn haters very happy. But, to be fair, it's a new show airing opposite American Idol. They should give it a chance. See how it does after Idol is over.

Ghostvirus · 02-04-2011, 10:49 PM

So this is the show with that no talent on it. Don't care then. Ain't watching. She needs to go away now.

kane9321 · 02-10-2011, 09:49 AM

this is one of the worst tv shows i've ever seen..I feel bad for olivia munn(i love her..but i cant do this anymore 3 episodes was enough)....just wow

Rowsdower! · 02-10-2011, 10:12 AM

I meant to watch this because I like Christine Woods and I want to see Olivia Munn do well just because of all the idiotic hatred of her on this board (She's not a REAL geek! She doesn't DESERVE to be at Comic Con!). But I totally forgot it about it. The premise seems like 20 other shows that have come in gone in the past 10 years.

Regarding Oursourced... that show offends me on so many levels I can't believe it's still on the air. F**king NBC.

chaseter · 02-10-2011, 11:14 AM

This show is awful. It is extremely slow, the humor is so dry with zero wit that I have to drink a gallon of water just to stay hydrated for 30 minutes. The score for this show sucks...I don't even know if they have any music. It is dead silent 99% of the time. The actors suck and they have zero chemistry with each other.

Cancel this show please.

The only time, the only time, I laughed was when he swung the sword into his couch....that is it. This is like The League but only not funny at all.

Catman · 02-10-2011, 12:47 PM

So much hate.

Rowsdower! · 02-10-2011, 02:53 PM

Not many people know this, but the Internet thrives on hate. Seriously. Tony Stark built an arc reactor that that feeds on human hatred and keeps the Internet from ever going completely dark.

However, if hate were ever to be erased or at least suffer a major blow (like say, the entire Tea Party driving off a cliff) then the Internet would likely suffer a massive shutdown worldwide.

chaseter · 02-10-2011, 03:07 PM

Send Keith Olbermann, Ed Shultz, and Chris Matthews off that cliff too. I don't even think they have blood vessels anymore.

Uh oh, I offended the diehard right-winger.

chaseter · 02-11-2011, 10:03 AM

Thanks for...defending me???

I am not a member of any political group but the Tea Party has been given a bad rap and done so by a very smart and concise left. The only argument against the Tea Party is that they are racist, that it is a sea of white people at these rallies. African Americans compromise about 10% of the population and 85% of those people identify themselves as Democrats and 95% voted for Obama. So does anyone with any brains expect to see a diverse crowd at a Tea Party rally?

I despise politics in general and sadly this is better conversation than this show will ever bring forth.

Catman · 02-11-2011, 03:02 PM

Christine Woods is so darn likeable on this show. I loved the way she reacted when that dude was flirting with her in last night's episode.

Whoops, meant offended. Can't believe I did that.

Now granted, my remark about the Tea Party was far from non-partisan, but I'm as left as they come. However, since you claim to be apolitical (and I don't think you are because I remember you defending George W. Bush in another thread) I think that if you're going to single out political commentators as hate mongers, then you had better include Bill-O, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

Additionally, to say that the Tea Party is not composed of racists because the majority of the population is white is a pretty silly argument. The allegations of racism are based on the offensive signs that these people carry to their rallies, the thinly veiled hate speech in their words and the fact that so many of the things they're railing against didn't apparently matter to them when George W. Bush was in office. If they cared so much about government spending, where were they went Dubya was bankrupting the country on wars?

Anyway, to anyone who entered this thread to talk about Perfect Couples, my apologies for derailing it.
