Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Andrew Gold John Mulaney is a funny guy. There's no doubt about it; just watch his comedy special "New in Town" on Netflix. His delivery is deadpan, which may turn off some people, but once you understand that his humor presents itself in subtle, sarcastic tones, it's easy to see why Mulaney wanted to have his own sitcom - an edgy, modernized version of Seinfeld. Yeah, the Seinfeld comparison was inevitable. I got it out of the way early.The problem with Mulaney is that it got off on the wrong foot. The pilot was a disastrous mish mash of jokes from his stand-up routines, with the obligatory forced character introductions and sub par acting. The next few episodes weren't much better - characters were developed slightly but the chemistry was lacking. They weren't fleshed out enough and none of them were particularly likable; aside from Oscar, of course, played wonderfully by Elliot Gould as Mulaney's warmhearted openly gay hippie neighbor.When Mulaney does shine, it shines bright. Nothing shows this better than the recent stretch of episodes - "Worlds Collide", "French Roast", and "Power Moves" - which are examples of when the show actually feels like a sitcom, and not just some struggling comedian being put in awkward situations and reacting to them. They have genuine character development, interactions you actually care about, and every character has found their purpose.Jane, the tomboyish roommate that is easily annoyed and as sarcastic as she is crass. Oscar, the wise caregiver who provides an older generation's perspective to modern trivialities. Lou, the narcissistic boss who thrives on other people's suffering. Andre, the awkward pill-pusher who desperately wants to fit in. Motif, the oblivious mooching roommate who always has the best of intentions. And John, the struggling comedian working for a sociopath, having to deal with two polar opposite roommates and trying to find stability in the capitalist insanity that is New York.Some character combinations work better than others. For example, Oscar and Jane had magical moments together on "French Roast". It was the ultimate conundrum for Jane: having to tone down her crude personality to impress a guy, and this was paired with Oscar's hilariously machismo sense of 1950s etiquette. Jane and Lou had their moments on "World Collide", both of them as self-absorbed as the other and leeching off each other's company with the other being none the wiser. John and Motif have a similar childish comic mentality which makes the confrontations involving all three roommates a constant recipe for hilarity.Mulaney simply needs to find its groove. Now that John has gotten his rehashed stand-up jokes out of his system, he can start treating it like the sitcom it's supposed to be. The show is at its best when it's at its most subtle or most offensive, much like Mulaney's stand-up. Wise cracks like Oscar's "She was a dentist and one day said "enough!" and became a therapist," casually peppered into a conversation. Jane agreeing to work for Lou by stating "for $750 a day you can call me a dumb bitch." Lou and his demoralization of an employee, calling him a liar for saying his grandmother's in the hospital when she was actually dead. Jane catching John praying to himself and John's startled excuse that he "was just masturbating."I don't want to get into the acting performances, but to put it simply, John is the weak link. His neutral delivery is fine for when he's helping set up a joke, or even for the occasional dry punchline. But there are moments where his robotic line reading is just uninteresting and not at all captivating. Thankfully, that doesn't happen often, because Nasim Pedrad (Jane) essentially steals the show. Her character is the most realized - she has the best lines, and she's basically a negative, repulsive personality, which ensures the funniest confrontations. Martin Short and Elliot Gould are fantastic with what they are given. Gould could use more screen time, and Short's segments on his game show could be cut altogether and it wouldn't be much of a loss. But their performances are game, and they manage to turn otherwise unfunny dialogue into hiccups of guilty laughter.Once the writers take note of which jokes work and which don't, it will go a long way to helping Mulaney become the great sitcom it has the potential to be. That is, assuming it doesn't get canceled, which unfortunately is looking more and more plausible. Oh well, Fox has allowed worse shows on the air for longer- fingers crossed for Mulaney.

John Martini Show is OK. As my title states. 2 Broke Girls has a 7 star rating. That show is terrible. 2BG makes Mulaney look like Seinfeld (which is what Mulaney is trying to be, including the stand up routine before each episode). I may be rating high at 6 but I think realistic. 2BGs is 2 at best. I don't like the Elliot Gould character, tries to hard. Mulaney is no actor. Martin Short is a genius talent. Hollywood had never found a way to utilize his talent. Again, 2 Broke Girls is terrible. Mulaney is OK. Jokes are OK (better than 2BG jokes about abortions). Main girl looks like girl from Anger Management. Why do I need 10 lines? Seems I said all I need to, but 10 lines you want 10 lines you get. I will type until I get 10 lines. There. ..I think I did it. One more time for the road. ..2 Broke Girls is garbage. Mulaney is Shakespeare in comparison.

ijoshuachurch I've watched John Mulaney's stand up and seen him on quite a few talks shows. I found his stand up quite funny, and he seems like a great guy, so I was interested in seeing what his show was like. During his stand up bit at the beginning of the first episode I was thinking to myself "This show is going to be great". Then the show began. I just can't their using a live audience. If you like shows with live audience you might be able to get into this. I can't stand live audiences and can't believe that any comedy to come out since the early 2000s still uses them. I was really hoping this show was going to have a very real and down-to-earth feel to it like Louis. But instead I got a really cheesy cookie cutter sit-com that reminds me of 90% of the other sit-coms with laugh tracks. The laugh track (or live audience) isn't the only problem I have though, the acting seems forced to me and the situations unrealistic. Anyone who's a fan of realistic comedy without Laugh tracks and cheesy little gimmicks, I recommend staying away from this show.I don't want to give this a rating because it might just have to do with me not liking laugh tracks.

hthbrr2 The show's pilot starts out with a sexist joke and it just continues the women bashing from there. I'm not surprised, this show IS on FOX. FOX is conservative central.The 'star' of the show (never heard of this guy before, no offence) says that he was chasing a woman late a night and he was offended that she ran from him. What? He says he was not trying to attack her but merely trying to catch the subway. Sounds awfully like an excuse a criminal would say. "I was not chasing you just chasing after the subway." Huh? Even though he ADMITS to chasing the WOMAN....OK, moving on....we next see the credits after the rip-off Seinfeld intro. Oh yeah, in addition to the show being backwards they also rip off other shows. Mainly Seinfeld and Friends. You can see it in the transition scenes. It's set in NYC like those shows and even the apt that they are in, from the outside, looks like the one in friends! The inside looks like a hybrid between Seinfeld and Friends.Now we are in a doctor's waiting room, with two men talking about their various scams. Then the only female character bursts in and acts like the female stereotype conservatives try to brand all women with. Crazy, emotional, irrational, obsessed with men, evil, stupid, easily beaten, not to be taken seriously. Wow! She bursts in and the first thing out of her mouth is "I am not crazy!" Then starts acting crazy..... and she states sexist things and it's played off like she lost even though she is right..... they make fun of her to no end.Also in shows where there is sexism their is also racism! There is the token black friend! Who is the conservative stereotype of African- American/Black people. Loud, annoying, simple, lazy, stupid, silly. Wow!The 'star' of the show was a stand up comedian and there are strange parts in the show where he almost looks directly to the camera to say 'bits' from his routine. Wth is this show trying to be? It's like 99% rip off and 1% weird homage to this guys stand up? It just seems random and shoved in there when he does it.There are jokes against breast cancer! They say that the walk was named after a woman because she will get a kick out of it. Yeah breast cancer/women issues are not important! Sure men can get it too, but of course it's mostly women....Token black friend continues the women bashing with 'problem bitch' WOW! Then the 'star' says to the only female "What are you doing here btw cuz i know it's not to support me." Then the only female says "Would a woman with nothing in her life immerse he life in charity work?" More bashing. Then the only woman rips out plants of her ex. And calls the 'star' "white boy" wow :O Are we still only defined by our race!? Shows how racist this show is....The 'problem bitch' joke continues with the only female's ex calling his current gf one and saying '(at least) crazy calms down.' WOW so women are either crazy, or problems....wow. Also the other female, which is basically a voice, wants to be on speaker. So yeah all women are vain and want to be the center of attention. This show, so against women wow!Near the end of the show the 'star' complains that he is not getting treated properly by his boss. And boom instant reward. YET the female complains and no one cares....just wow I have no words for how sexist this is.The show does have it's funny parts, but the sexist/racist parts just drag the show down. Mostly I am laughing at the show for how ignorant it is. I just say "Hey, your ignorance is showing!" FOX can you PLEASE stop all the white male worship? Minorities are also human beings as much as you like to deny it. They have rights as well. Conservatives are working hard to strip these groups of ALL their rights but no, you really have to stop. It's getting too obvious, you can't even hide your ignorance and try to pass it off as 'comedy' anymore. STOP the gender/race stereotyping and this show may have a chance.
