Bob and Abishola's amazing on screen chemistry was pure comedic magic from their very opening scene together in this the pilot episode. This romantic sitcom may be 22 minutes per episode but it seemed like only a moment in time before it was abruptly over as the quick wit between veteran stand up comedian Billy Gardell, and actress Folake Olowofoyeku, made the half hour fly by far too quickly.
Bob owns his own sock manufacturing company and when he unexpectedly suffers a heart attack and ends up in the hospital cardiac ward his assigned nurse Abishola is just doing her job (taking care of Bob after his surgery) when Bob's heart goes a fluttering due to the overt attention he pays to Abishola and he falls instantly in love with her.
I can understand why there is an immediate on screen connection between sock manufacturer Bob and cardiac nurse Abishola, it is the same reason I have fallen for this sitcom. Not only are the two main characters interesting the supporting cast of Abishola's immediate family, her co-workers and commuter friends, and Bob's immediate family represent an eclectic cast that I am looking forward to seeing much more of for at least several more seasons. Just like we did with Mike and Molly who entertained us each week for several years when we were first introduced to them back in 2010.
I am so looking forward to tuning in to each and every episode of this season one (1) sitcom. This sitcom is here to stay and I say ignore any naysayers. I predict multiple Emmy's over multiple years. A perfect 10 out of 10
