The New Normal Review: "Dairy Queen" (Episode 1.15)

<i>The New Normal</i> Review: "Dairy Queen" (Episode 1.15)

Surely, there’s a better way that The New Normal could have handled breast-feeding than how it did in “Dairy Queen.” It’s clumsy, over-the-top and silly in all the wrong ways. If Jane is the strongest part of the episode, that should be a surefire way to tell something might be wrong.  read more

1600 Penn Review: "Meet the Parent" (Episode 1.04)

<i>1600 Penn</i> Review: "Meet the Parent" (Episode 1.04)

Even though 1600 Penn can’t seem to nail down the characters that it does have, the introduction of D.B. does seem promising. Bringing D.B. into the mix, as well as increased material for Marshall, could at least make 1600 Penn more intriguing than it has been thus far.  read more

Go On Review: "Comeback Player of the Year" (Episode 1.14)

<i>Go On</i> Review: "Comeback Player of the Year" (Episode 1.14)

Usually, 'Go On' feels like Matthew Perry is the entire show. His character controls the pace and comedy of an entire episode with a few well-written subplots for other characters that feel like afterthoughts, but that balance is what works.  read more

1600 Penn Review: "So You Don't Want To Dance" (Episode 1.03)

<i>1600 Penn</i> Review: "So You Don't Want To Dance" (Episode 1.03)

“So You Don’t Want to Dance” isn’t 1600 Penn at the best it could be, as least I hope not, but it’s headed that way. The more these characters are fleshed out, the more intriguing the show becomes, even if Skip is still frustrating and one of the show’s main focal points. Like Skip, 1600 Penn is doing the best it can, but it still stumbles quite a lot in it’s approach to do so.  read more
