What a disappointment! This show should be much better than it actually is! It is boring and painful to watch. They added a nice character who runs the food truck, but it hasn't helped. Look for this to be cancelled

Fresh, fun, hilarious comedy. A new sit-com that delivers. Some great comedians fill-out this cast. The pilot episode was engaging and well written. I am looking forward to future episodes.
