It has been a long time since I have laughed so much at a US Sit-com. Its funny from start to finish.
All the characters gel so well, a rare thing indeed. Michael Richards slid in so well to add melancholic mystery with intense hilarity. It is so good to see Rhea Perlman on her usual top form a her on screen sarcastic dictator persona,a delight. A new face to sit-coms,Eric Petersen. Not an easy role to play considering who he is working with. No suggestion of Rabbit in the headlights here. And last but never least,Kirstie Alley playing the "Straight man ",the butt of most of the jokes but knowing exactly how to set them up. Her comic timing keep no one waiting and she bring a strong elegant presence to this chaotic scene, amazing.
So many sitcoms come with an obvious path its a relief when they get to a punchline.
I cannot criticize casting, writing,or direction,just had me watching intently for the next unpredictable line.
I sincerely hope this makes a second series and beyond. I hope I am not being presumptuous when I say that this could be another "Big Bang"
Well done guys,thank you for such a great laugh.
