Outsourced is funnier. And I can stick to Sunny for my waitress fix.

Outsourced is so funny, Hulu lists it as a drama.

There's no way it's that bad.

 

[Lunchbox]

she looks hot at times, but it goes away if you look too long

like i tried jerking it to her, and couldnt get it up. had to think of someone else to finish up

 

[Persona7]

The waitress from Always Sunny is in it too.

yeah. I noticed her on the commercial for that show

she is a better reason to watch this show

Who is that pale redhead nerd girl? i think she is prettier than munn

 

[DominoKid]

Olivia Munn, every week, in HD. i'll give it a shot.

plus its an NBC Comedy, its gonna be decent at least

i was wrooooooooooong :lol

i usually dont like to judge off the first episode but that was awful and showed no potential whatsoever.

 

[Yo Gotti]

You guys are the reason she's famous.

Congratulations, friends.

 

[Cipherr]

she snores?

In every photo she has ever taken. Every moment of every day of every everything she looks tired as fuck in the eyes.

I mean goddamn.

 

[wolfmat]

Recycling time!

 

[Archer]

Recycling time!

:lol

 

[Carnby]

i had no idea who she was prior to this thread. every gif posted in this thread made me not like her. thanks for the warning.

 

[Aesius]

She's hot, but I vehemently hate her.

 

[Belfast]

No, man. It's the truth. At least Outsourced has "jokes," even if they're based almost purely off of cultural stereotypes.

I have never once encountered a comedy, or hell any show, with this little charm. It's just soooo fucking bland. I couldn't tell you the name of a single character on the show, and all the dudes just kind of blur together for me.

The mise en scene is boring, too. I know that seems like a weird thing to complain about, but think about how iconic certain sets are for television series... like you can recognize them as places where the characters hang out, even if they were devoid of people.

Perfect Couples feels like it was filmed entirely in generic, suburban model homes, pre-furnished and everything. It's just a complete... travesty. I'm not sure of any other way to describe it.

 

[SonOfABeep]

she is very attractive

i have never been interested watching her television programs though

 

[Siebzehn50]

She's attractive, I find it odd that people are disputing that. I can understand not liking her though, she can be obnoxious. In small doses she has a goofy likability to her though.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Yeah, this. I'd tap that with no hesitation but she's not, well, pretty

I don't think they're looking at her face.

 

[lightless_shado]

I don't think they're looking at her face.

Probably the push-up-bra enhanced boobs. Sad how some people fall for such trickery.

 

[Finaika]

I dunno why but her voice & attitude kind of reminds me of Sandra Bullock.

 

[opticalmace]

I saw her do some E3 coverage when she was new at G4 or whatever it was. She was terrible. :lol

 

[Raistlin]

Shut up - round eye!!!

I didn't watch, but your complaint about mise en scene is very valid. To me it's so important, especially in comedies. Without McLarens in HIMYM, Greendale in Community, and the offices in Parks and The Office, those shows would suffer.

 

[DMeisterJ]

Perfect Couples had terrible ratings last night (1.4) so we shouldn't be seeing too much more of this show.

 

[Guevara]

I'd hit it, sure; but then I'd quit it.

 

[ivysaur12]

Oh man, that was boring. I don't think I've seen a comedy that bad in a while.

Why would NBC waste The Sing-Off's 2.7-3.0 lead-in (lol NBC) on that?

I can understand now why NBC has no faith in their midseason shows. This and The Cape = :lol :lol

 

[VeryGooster]

What was the premise of the show, anyway? "Couples have issues." Was that it?

 

[ivysaur12]

Basically, yes.

From NBC:

Perfect Couples revolves around three unique couples at various stages in their relationships, yet who face similar problems. Vance and Amy are a couple who fight a lot and have a very active sex life. Rex and Leigh view themselves as relationship experts and therefore a "perfect couple", while Dave and Julia are considered the normal pair that everyone can relate to

It's somewhat similar to Traffic Light, except Traffic Light is a lot better.

 

[Count Dookkake]

She's a doll. Would let her sit on my face for a few days.

lulz, she's going going going gone.

Ah, you've seen Traffic Light too? And it's great? I have been loving the promos. I'm excited for it.

If this is the right Traffic Light, then the trailer got laughs from me:

Roy from The Office and that one dude from Scott Pilgrim? I'll give it a shot.

Is that...the oldest son from My Family?

Nick?

Same here. I typically give a show 2-4 episodes, but we turned this crap off after 10-15 minutes and will never go back. The commercials were hilarious, but man the show itself is so bad.

Reminds me of when I first saw 5 minutes of shit my dad says.

 

[Zoe]

It felt like they were going for an old-school sitcom vibe on a closed set. Awful.

Despite my love of Shatner, I never even gave that one a chance. I heard so many negative things about it and it's on CBS so we never gave it a shot. Yes, I have an unnatural bias against pretty much anything on CBS. Not really sure why either. (Only HIMYM is excluded )

I don't normally watch sitcoms now a days but I did it for Shatner and came away dissapointed. I lasted a whole 5 minutes, five!

 

[ivysaur12]

Traffic Light is easily my favorite new comedy of the year judging by the pilot. Granted, I haven't seen everything else and this crop of comedies is pretty poor, but I really hope that Traffic Light is a keeper.

Fox did really well with sitcoms this year. I hear good things about Breaking In, too.

It's great. That trailer is a great representation of the pilot, even if it does give a lot of the jokes away.

Also, it's Ivy from Dollhouse :lol

 

[Cosmic Schwung]

Is that...the oldest son from My Family?

Nick?

These days he's known as that fella from the BT adverts. He was the best thing in My Family, although that really isn't saying much.

Anyway, I liked that trailer. I might have to check it out.

BT Adverts?

Yeah so it is him. Awesome, I must see this show if I can.

 

[manipulate]

Recycling time!

DAT PIXELS

 

[broadwayrock]

How odd.

The BT advert bloke being in a US comedy is stranger than Egg from This Life being in the Walking Dead.

 

[BigDug13]

Americanized Asian women are pretty hot a lot of times. Americanized half Asian half white women incredibly hot a lot of times.

But Munn is mildly attractive in some angles and a bit weird looking in other angles. Based on her heritage and the following she has, you would think she's a goddess in the looks department, then when you actually see her, you can instantly think of a handful of half Asian half white chicks you've seen that are way more attractive.

That's my disappointment. She should be hotter to have this kind of "OmG she's so hot" following that she somehow has.

I told my little brother that I was going to Comic Con and his first response was, "get a picture of Olivia Munn". I didn't waste my time with any effort to accomplish that request. And I still don't understand the insane attraction. I've tried to give her the benefit of the doubt and tried to open my mind to potential hotness there, but I'm just not seeing it. I would definitely hit it, but I'm not going out of my way to catch any kind of glimpse of her.

 

[WillyFive]

The show is on.

Oh snap, that is Olivia Munn.

Wait, that was it's cold open? Shouldn't they have started with something funny?

 

[Sanjuro]

I can't pretend to know who Lou Diamond Phillips is again!

 

[Meohsix]

This show is horrible. I hope its canceled by the time i wake up tomorrow.

 

[Sanjuro]

It's only the first episode...not anything special but it's certainly more amusing than most sitcoms.

 

[Weenerz]

Why isn't this topic set for NSFW? Those gifs(while not offensive) could get some slackers fired when they are checking forums instead of working

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

I assume something happens where Olivia Munn and her husband's characters turn normal.

Kind of a fun train wreck to watch though.

 

[smokeymicpot]

It's alright. Nice seeing the waitress.

 

[Zoe]

It's only the first episode...not anything special but it's certainly more amusing than most sitcoms.

It's the second to air.

 

[Sanjuro]

It's the second to air.

Well the episode is named "Pilot".
