    My 9/10 score is based on the pilot alone. I went into watching it reluctantly, thinking it wasn't going to be all that funny or clever, but I was pleasantly surprised. The chemistry between Lake Bell and Dax Shephard is good but what really kicks the show up several notches for me was the additions of Ed Begley Jr., Pam Grier, David Koechner. That's a hell of a comedy safety net to fallMy 9/10 score is based on the pilot alone.

    It’s a solid 22 minutes of television ... But after less than a half-hour of setup, there’s no way of saying if the first season is richer or poorer than the sum of its parts.

    If the series succeeds it’s thanks to Bell and Shepard’s pleasant chemistry, which carries the premise further than seems possible if the leads were cast differently.

    Escapism has its place, but this feels more insubstantial than even the early-21st-century reality-TV version of this idea, "The Simple Life."
