• I wondered if Brooklyn would ever do television. She’s still a work in progress as an actress, but she has potential. Gorgeous nonetheless.

• She had a hilarious pilot in 2007 called Lipshitz Saves the World. And she killed it when she recurred on The League last year. Not the best script, but it was a lot better when I gave it a second read.

• This pilot might go on to find success, but the title is god-awful. Simply terrible. The word Friends should not be allowed in any movie or TV title for the next two years.

• I’m just glad to see someone put James Van Der Beek in a decent ensemble comedy. He deserves a shot to have a successful ensemble comedy instead of that God awful, nasty bunch of perverts in The Bitch in Apt. 23. It takes a POS to put something so unfunny and perverted on mainstream tv- Paul Lee.

  • Are you serious or am I right in assuming you’re joking? Van Der Beek?

    “He deserves a shot to have a successful ensemble comedy” Right, ’cause he’s such a fine thespian and just oozing with charisma.

    But I will say that as far as talent goes he’s met his equal in Brooklyn Decker.

• Pretty lady. how’d she get her break? Where did she get her ‘professional acting training’? I thought she never went to acting class. Anyone?

• This is what I hate about sitcosm, CBS, ABC, NBC, Hollywood, Madison Ave., and the men in Gray Suits, and the reviewers. Hasn’t this title and genre already been done? Can’t anyone come up with something new? Answer: Of course not, because this is what non-thinking couch potatoes all across America want, complete with witty rejoinders and a hip group of 30 somethings. Gag me with a spoon. As soon as one person comes up with a show idea the lazy good for nothing copy cats go to work. Example: Gold Rush. A hit show and now there are a half dozen copy cats. And spinoffs. Puh-leeze. Just stop it. If you can’t come up with something originally, go to dead air like when Dead Air Dan was having a hissy fit over a tennis game running long.
