Reviews

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
SnoopyStyle Leslie Pool (John Lehr) is the inept owner-manager of independent G&G grocery store. It's ragtag group of wacky workers competing always with the corporate Super Value Mart across the street.Other stand outs include Bob Clendenin and Jennifer Elise Cox. Jennifer plays the evil manager of the chain grocery store next door. Sadly she was just a part time player and never made it to the 3rd seasons. The characters are over the top. They bicker. They fight. At the end of the day, they come together as a team. The show is somewhat improvised. The jokes don't come as fast and tight. The pacing is different than most sitcoms. The jokes don't always work but it's still worth a watch.
bethvk This is a stupid show. It is not good at all, it's not even funny at all and the actors are all terrible. The writing is some of the worst I've ever seen in a show like this.This is the kind of show you watch and then say "hey how did something that awful get made and put on TV and is still on TV?". Why didn't somebody in the process of making this show stop and say "hey wait a second this show is really bad and we shouldn't waste our time and money making it".Bad, avoid watching if you have good taste.1/10.
Navy_Woodchuck Let's say you're going to work one morning and, from space, a meteor hits you in the mouth and breaks your jaw. After you recover and return to work, you might tell this story to your co-workers and, given the sheer inanity of the situation, you might relate the story in a humorous fashion. Despite not having any experience as a comedian, you would still be infinitesimally more humorous than "10 Items or Less", TBS's new attempt at killing laughter throughout the known world. This is the type of show you can watch all the way through without laughing, smiling or possibly ever feeling happiness again.The premise is woefully unoriginal in so many ways- A group of ineffective people working at a supermarket. Let's take a look at that sentence… You can replace the word "supermarket" with any other place of business and you will still have the exact same show. In this case, you could even replace the word "people" with "hulking piles of scrap iron" and it would have no effect on the shows quality.The show is supposedly a loosely scripted, predominantly improvisational work. However, none of the cast proves quick-thinking enough to deliver jokes, but rather try to pass off odd and quirky behavior as humorous, and for the most part they fail at that, too. The cast isn't simply bad at being supermarket employees, they're actually bad at playing human beings- In several scenes it's is actually possible to see an actor's soul leave their body to make their performance more awkward and less human.One can't help but wonder how it is that TBS, who has proved to be pretty smart about which shows to run in syndication, can keep giving the green light to bad shows like this. There have been Challenger space shuttle disasters funnier than this show, which I might add, wasn't as fanatically over-advertised as "10 Items of Less" was. I suspect that this show is just one unfunny step of many in TBS's plan to make their network so unwatchable that they can use their airtime to transmit messages to the New World Order out in the open… And sadly, for fear of accidentally seeing more awful programming like this, no one will be the wiser.
kirsten-38 My friend is a reporter and she got a preview episode sent to her. This is one of the best new shows I've seen in a long time. How something was so off the wall and so real at the same time was baffling to me. The girls are way hot and the whole cast was great. I worked in a supermarket for a long time and this stuff really happens. Even though I thought some of it was kind of exaggerated (sp?) so much of it is true to life, and maybe I'm biased, but I thought it was pee in your pants funny. I hope network idiots don't cancel it, like so many good shows don't get a chance to be on for a long time, but whatever you do don't miss this gem.
