The greatest movie ever!

Dreadfully Boring

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

I like Jenna Elfman, but the downfall of this show is that she plays a character that most women cannot possibly identify with. Tall, skinny and lovely may appeal to the male audience, but if Elfman would eat a couple sandwiches, put on a few pounds, that may have helped her case with the female audience.Also, she got together with the guy too quickly. There was no wooing stage, no build-up (like Cheers' Sam and Diane). And the guy wasn't even all that appealing. I truly hope that Elfman gets another sitcom opportunity, perhaps as a costar or part of an ensemble cast. I'm not sure she has what it takes to carry a show on her own.

Lot's of great comedy's on TV but this is the one for 2006! The story is about a New York lawyer Alex Rose and her boyfriend Scott. When I first seen the adverts to it I thought it'd be a real girls comedy but I liked it (As you can see from my rating)! Like lot's of comedy's it has canned laughter at jokes that aren't that funny but it makes up for it. So far I haven't seen a bad episode. I don't know about you but I say it is not a prime time comedy.It's like The War at Home, Friends,Joey,Everybody Hates Chris, Two and a Half etc.. one of those. I think it's a comedy that doesn't take that long to learn all of the characters (Like 'The Simpsons') where like Everybody Loves Raymond I still don't know all of there names yet and I've been watching it for like a year now. One of the reasons it doesn't take that long to learn there names is because there isn't loads of characters. It's really a great comedy so give it a chance.

I now give myself a half hour break to shampoo the cat; Every Wednesday night at 8:30pm pacific 7:30pm central. What a pile of crap. The commercials have more entertainment value. Fire the writers, fire the cast, put the poor crew on paid leave. This dumb show jumped the shark before the shark was born. I would certainly hope someone in programming at CBS knows the best time to air this program would be at 3:30 AM Saturday morning. That way most of America would be spared the lame idiocy this show has to offer. Whether one uses his or her time to shampoo the cat, read an entire life insurance binder or simply smash ones privates flat with a wooden mallet, anything will be surprisingly less painful than one horrible second watching, "Courting Alex".

Let me say going into this, I love Jenna Elfman and I think she's a talented comedian and actress. Maybe it's because Dharma Montgomery was such a defining character and thus is difficult to follow up, but this somber junket of a show just doesn't showcase her talents at all. I've now seen three episodes, and I may have chuckled two or three times in total. The cast is likable enough, but the writing is far too formulaic and the stock characters are ill-defined. This sitcom isn't even as well done as the one it replaced, "Out of Practice," and believe me, that's not saying much. If you haven't seen it yet, don't bother. It'll be gone by spring.
