I count myself a huge fan of Bob's work, so I was stoked about this coming out. But by the third episode I had to face the fact that I just was not feeling it. But I didn't write my take until now because although I stopped watching I was giving my mind time to figure out why the show didn't take for me. I think I have it in one sentence now, so here goes: This show is bogged down and lacks forwar momentum because too many neurotic characters sharing the same story is just boring, uninteresting. It's not comedy if it's painful to watch/listen to one scene after another just going from neurotic husband to neurotic wife, to other neurotic colleagues, to neurotic students. I agree that it is ultra realistic in that it reflects a real world possibility, but it's not entertaining. Woody Allen is the master of the high concentration neurotic characters brought together but this crew can't capture that Allenesk vibe at all. Total snooze fest. Not fun or funny, just depressing.
