    Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

    I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

    It was OK when one of the fund managers enjoyed singing, but another fund manager in management starts to sing as well, the whole show suddenly looks unrealistic and ridiculous. I think that moment was the beginning of the end of the show.

    I had very high expectations for this show so I guess I should try to temper them in my review, and that might be why I am so very disappointed with this show to be honest, but I tried it several times and just tried it again after leaving it for a long time and still think it is a very disappointing (and also not very funny for a comedy) effort.Ted McGinley (if that is the right name?) is completely wasted and even seems uncomfortable being in this, as if he knows that the show is not very good and is just going through the motions to fulfill his contract as an actor. I liked him a lot in Scrubs and he is still good (though similar) in this but there's just not much for him to do with poor writing and poor other performers (the male lead in this is incredibly annoying).Not sure what they were even trying to do with this show but it was frankly not very good and not at all funny (other than a few scenes by the guy from Scrubs).

    "A new sitcom by Bill Lawrence?! I LOVED SCRUBS! Woohoo! This will be great!" I thought as I sat down for the first episode. Oh how wrong I was... Not a single laugh or even smile was had for the tiresome 30 minute duration.Due to not being spoilt for choice where I live, I have now watched every episode of the first two seasons - watching this beyond the first episode started as a bit of experiment. Surely it will grow on me, right? Wrong. When I reached the end of the first season, I couldn't believe it had been renewed for the second and now I see there is a third coming in 2015. Crazy, considering shows like 'Awake' (not a comedy, but brilliant) got cancelled after one season.The only time this show has been able to put a slight smirk on my face is when Skylar Astin breaks into song or dance. Canned laughter is used more than Two and a Half Men - which is excessive in itself. This makes every (failed) punch-line in the show even more cringe- worthy. I would give a rating of 1 if it wasn't for my respect for John C. McGinley. Anything gets +1 star if he's in it, although the deep voice he puts on for this show isn't necessary or funny, and surely isn't going to be sustainable. Only in the final minutes of the final episode of season 2 do you see his voice return to normal, and this is where you catch a glimpse of how good he truly is.Unfortunately, he cannot carry the entire series.I can't remember the last time a sit-com has failed to make me laugh. Please cancel this rubbish so McGinley has a chance to find something new.

    Rory Scovel is one of the most brilliant comedians working today. I have had the blessed opportunity to see him live and he is a non-stop tour de force as a comedian. Coming to this show with an expectation of any kind that you will get some sort of Scovel magic, I was sorely disappointed. I was so glad that Rory had found a show to work on and now I am just sad that his talent is being wasted on this garbage. This show basically is the show that Lisa Kudrow is mocking on The Comeback. A nonsense show that cheapens sex and humanity by giving it no soul or value. It also cheapens what it thinks of its audience by believing they are foolish enough to want this drivel. In the age of Top of the Lake, The Sopranos, The Wire, 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, House of Cards, True Detective (I could go on and on) ... it is difficult to believe a show this bad could actually still exist, much less warrant a second season.
