    Well I've just watched the 12 first episodes and I'm cursing you all for not posting about how great the show was so I could have picked it up earlier! It's a great series; the episodes are short (20ish min) and the characters are enjoyable. Not outright laughing all the time but definitely worth watching.

    Saw a lot of hype around this recently and I've watched the first eight episodes and I'm disappointed. It's not bad or anything, it's perfectly easy to watch but for the most part it's largely forgettable.

    Just watched all 12 episodes of this. I really like it. It's not perfect but it's better than a lot of the "big" sitcoms that run for years and years in the States. I find a good test of a comedy is if you actually "laugh out loud" at it, not just chuckle or smile to yourself. I did quite a few times when watching this. Especially when Boring Larry pepper sprayed the judge in the lift.

    Shame it's been cancelled :(

    Side note, I was a big fan of Happy Endings, which Eliza Coupe was previously on, and she's the first cast member of that show I've been able to watch on something else and not just see the character from Happy Endings in a different setting. So yeah, it's a shame it didn't get longer to find an audience.
