Neither funny, nor entertaining., 1 March 2005
Author: brumcoh from United States

This is by far the worst sitcom, since My Mother the Car. Jason Alexander is a fine actor, but his George Costanza routine does not work outside of Seinfeld. It's grating and more embarrassing than funny. I tried to give the show a chance, but after four shows I gave up on it. It gets old, seeing the same idiotic, unbelievable behavior show after show

This is the First Monday night CBS sitcom I have refused to watch in many years. With their tradition of excellent sitcoms, it's beyond comprehension why they put this clunker between such fine shows as Still Standing, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Two And a Half Men. I prayed that the show wouldn't make it past mid-season, but my prayers weren't answered. One can only hope that somebody at CBS comes to their senses, and realizes that there is absolutely no substance to the show, and that it is "not" entertaining.
