Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

icebutter160 The Fanbase is trying to inflate the score of this show, I mean why does every negative review have so many thumbs down.The show is wannabe Seinfeld, Everyone one of the jokes falls flat.Granted TV show can have bad jokes, but the jokes are painfully delivered.Think of how mark wahlberg and zooey deschanel delivered their lines in "The Happening" It's painfully awkward.Unfortunately the worst acting comes from the show's lead character. I watched four episodes of this, and it didn't improve at all. I've watched every pilot that FOX has put out in the last 4 years and I can't find anything redeemable about this show. Even the standup that John Mulaney does in the beginning isn't funny and that is what his talent is in.Maybe this show was too much for the public because its John Mulaney's project which I can respect but it's on primetime T.V. it needs mainstream approval and the numbers to back it up.It had neither.edit: John Mulaney fans are thumbing me down :(

Rick Danger (moanb58) Watched the show for the first time tonight. I read the other review prior to writing this and most were not kind. I don't know of John Mulaney's stand up and other projects, but John.....please stop the sitcom project. I, like many, had high hopes due to Short and Gould, but I turned away about 20 minutes in. I just couldn't continue to watch the continuous string of non funny scenes. Please Fox...cancel this show and concentrate on another. Not one laugh in 20 minutes and I'm now wondering about the credibility of Fox and future comedy efforts. I could go on, but think my point is made. Dude...sometimes things just don't work out.

Christian Sandlin When i go into a show with a laugh track, clever humor is what I look for most. That's the reason Seinfeld had it's charm, and it's the reason Mulaney has his. He is the anchor of the show, much like Jerry, and the writing is very funny and respectable. I'm actually surprised Fox has a show of this quality on air. Pearlman is hilarious, and Martin Short is pretty good. My only worries are that shows like this need to find their footing fast these days. I hope the viewership numbers are good because I can foresee this becoming a show with classic episodes like a Cheers or, again, Seinfeld. John Mulaney is one hell of a good comedian.

ShadowsBeneathTheLight Seems to me like your typical garbage show on fox but this actually has potential. I love John Mulaney's stand-up and like Seinfeld this show opens and closes with bits from his stand up. Sadly though they had to cut out or reword certain bits because it was "inappropriate" for cable which shocks me that the word rape is inappropriate for cable yet people can say Sh!t (been done in other shows not this one). Anyway the show at times acts out scenes from his more popular stand-up moments which is an interesting take on his stand-up. If you know the jokes then obviously the scenario will be predictable but never the less funny. If you don't know them then you might be confused a little. My main concern with the show is the annoying female character who is crazy and continually stalks/harasses/obsesses over her ex while at the same time freaks out/understand why people think that she's crazy and also flaunts her sexuality to get what she wants (usually info on the ex bf). She needs to go as she is in no way funny and only serves as an annoying distraction from the show's plot. Kill her off, make her move, just delete her from existence, whatever; with her gone better humor can be inserted into the show. I understand the rule that you need to have a female character in the show (we all remember what the pilot episode of Seinfeld was like) but here's a tip fox, pick a character people will relate to, like, and find funny. Guys won't like her because she's annoying/crazy, women will find her to be a poor and possibly offensive representation of an ex girlfriend, and the crazy chicks that she does personify will hate her the most because she reminds them that people find them crazy. Replace her and the show will have a chance to keep a first season going.
