Happy Endings Pilot: C-


Really should have gotten a D+, but we'll give this a 65 for Elisha Cuthbert's sake. Based on the wallet photo, it's pretty much a couples/friend show no matter how you pitch it. Why so harsh? The mere fact the show seems forced from 'eh' flashbacks to stretched out jokes. I'm being real petty on this one, but name me one black guy you know named "Brad". Surprisingly, I know a "Chad" but he's a dick.

Other notes worth mentioning: Damon Wayans Jr. was underused then again, I'm only familiar with his family's work and Casey Wilson may be the only reason to watch this with volume. If the season is gonna be like the pilot, plenty is to fear. But with it following Modern Family in the schedule, it should birth 10-12 episodes its lone season.

But hey, my opinion only counts if you like old episodes of Saved By The Bell without Tori, laughing at that Bevery Hills 90210 episode when David Silver's weirdo friend shoots himself and Animaniacs.
