        It started off pretty slow and I was ready to shut it off. It picked up a little bit when they went to the karaoke bar. I'll give it another week.

          Most of you are usually in the same television threads I'm in, so I assume we have similar tastes.

          Not sure I'll be as dramatic as Burns, though, I'm not seeing much greatness in either show.

          I found Up All Night the better of the two. I think I enjoy seeing a show about two parents struggle with getting older.

          Free Agents worries me because I wonder how long this can go on. The show seems to be about the pair so is this going to happen every week? One wants to be with the other and the other doesn't, while they hide their indiscretions from their coworkers?

          I can see it as a plot for a series arc, but for an entire show's premise? I don't know. I also thought it was extremely slow at first and didn't pick up until the woman freaked out at the market.

          Up All Night kept me entertained. Again, though, is this the idea behind the show? Husband and wife love their kid and remember the parentless days. How long does that last? They already did the going out thing. Are they going to go out again next week?

            Totally agree. Hopefully the writers have something up there sleeve. I like Christina Applegate but I worry for this show.

              Whenever Walking Dead Season 2 premieres. That will be the only show I'm going to go out of my way to watch on a regular basis.

                Up All Night did great in the ratings. Almost 11million people tuned in.

                  It'll last it's ordered run at the least because America loves Christina Applegate (especially from Samantha Who days) and Will Arnett has a strong legion of television comedy fans that will watch anything he's in.

                  I personally like the both of them as well and it makes me sad that Christina Applegate can play a mom in a show. Just makes me realize how much older I am too.

                    I didn't get to see Free Agents but Up all Night was alright. I'm curious too how the premise can be kept up throughout a season (and maybe more). If not for Will Arnett it wouldn't be a watch for me IMO. I'll probably give it one or two more episodes and see.

                        2 Broke Girls was hilarious.

                          It was all right to me. I'll watch again and see how things go now that they are living together, but I really didn't like most of the one-liners.

                          Also what's the deal with the look of the subway train? NYC trains haven't looked like that in 20 years. Just weird to me. Stupid thing to complain about but I hate it when writers try to make NYC appear as this dump when it isn't.

                            I stopped watching Up All Night in 12 minutes. Might be a new record.

                            I liked Free Agents. Hank Azaria is awesome.

                            2 Broke Girls was mildly funny. I'll give it a shot.

                            What other comedies are premiering?

                              I think I left that off my list.
