The basic premise of this sitcom is that the main character is a nebbish who finds out his jock best friend has hooked up with the nebbish’s newly divorced mom. Coming up with the fantastic title for this premise apparently exhausted everyone’s comedic talents because this is just painful. Josh Zuckerman is really bad in the lead role and Nate Buzolic is pretty terrible as the best friend. There’s comedy here for a one-off, but in order for the show to keep going, it has to convince us that the mom and the best friend are actually falling in love and want a serious relationship, which is about the dumbest thing ever. This was really dire. 1 star.
tl;dr – coming up with the great premise/title exhausted all the comedic abilities of all concerned apparently; dire, unfunny comedy pilot is a real slog. 1 star.
