 "A to Z" (Season 1)
 This doesn't premiere until October 2nd but the pilot has already been made available via on demand, Hulu and NBC.com. I had the chance to watch the pilot earlier this summer and never got around to it. I just watched it this morning though and was very pleasantly surprised. It's very cute and obviously reminiscent of (500) Days of Summer, and the two leads have solid chemistry. Not sure how long it will last, but I'll definitely watch once it starts.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
I'm going to check it out because I love Cristin Milioti. She is one of the nicest "stars" I've ever met. It looks cute.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
That article ranks it below the ATROCIOUS "Cristela," so should be considered invalid "Selfie" and "Marry Me" are better though. Both are great.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
I just watched the pilot. Meh. The lead guy is charming but I don't like the female lead. Probably won't watch more.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
What the hell? Cristin Miloti is the show's strongest asset.
I thought the second episode was quite charming.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
She's really unappealing, both the character and actress. This is all I know her from though.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
She was also in The Wolf of Wall Street. I saw her in Broadway's Once and I have been a fan ever since. She gave one of the best performances I have ever seen on stage and she couldn't have been sweeter. Anyway, I'm enjoying the show enough. Cristin is the highlight by far but the writing is kind of bad. It really annoyed me how the first episode was how they were meant to be together forever and everything and then on the second one her goes out on a date with someone else.  I will keep watching (until it gets cancelled) because of Cristin.

She was also the Mother in "How I Met Your Mother" and had a hilarious guest spot on "30 Rock," which is where I first saw her.

Really enjoying this show. The supporting cast is great. Last night's episode was another good one.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
The third episode was a dud, IMO. Cristin Milioti deserves better material.

 Re: "A to Z" (Season 1)
I actually watched all of this because I can't quit shows (particularly ones with people I like). Though it was slight I honestly enjoyed almost all of it. I thought the supporting cast was great and the leads had a nice chemistry that developed well throughout the course of the series.
They definitely wrote the finale as a series finale so it was nice to get a little bit of closure. Also always nice to see Rashida Jones.
