I did. In terms of comedy, it was one end of the spectrum to the other. Some times, it was PAINFULLY bad, other times it had me laughing. For the most part, it felt... awkward. It was a fairly big mess for a pilot, so I hope it improves a bit in the coming weeks. Overall, it was average. I'd give it a C, I suppose. I'll tune in next week to see if there's any improvement (less cute, obvious humor, and more of the comedic timing that most of the characters have).

It's not so much unfunny, I think they were trying too hard to be funny, but the comedic timing of most of the cast was pretty good, so I hold out hope that they lose the cute humor next week (really, another smart 9-year old?), and stick to humor that accomidates what the cast is capable of. Right now, I can get that kind of timing in a lot of shows, so it's only run-of-the-mill.

I didn't because I thought it looked really idiotic from the previews.

I'm watching the third episode right now. This show borders on incredibly bad and clever. There are a few lines here and there that are surprisingly funny, but then the characters are way too over-the-top and obvious that it takes away from the clever lines that occasionally come from them. On Andy Richter Controls the Universe (Victor Fresco made both shows), it was all perfect there. But here, I just don't buy into the "so dumb she's still good mom" and the rebel daughter, to name a few of the characters. It has potential if it got away from the exaggeration in the characters, but either way, the show is way too low-rated for FOX to consider, especially over Quintuplets (which I find far superior in terms of overall, even though it's nothing special either).

I really like QUINTUPLETS :oops: ;). I wish FOX would give it another season. I actually thought the first episodes was horrible and only kept watching because of hottie Jake McDorman, but then it ended up getting better and better and overall I really ended up enjoying it. Now I don't want it to get cancelled, when I originally did after seeing the first episode. It can be pretty damn fun. And the ratings weren't THAT bad. Are they going to bring it back at all? It's kind of on a hiatus right now. I think it's because they have American Idol and Simple Life 3 at the moment. It will probably return once those are done, at least for a little while.

It's possible, I suppose. To be honest, I only watched the first three episodes, so if it got better, then hopefully it does come back. It's really going to be up to FOX on whether they go with this, or bank on new comedies instead.
