    Sara Rue shines, as usual, as the new pastor's secretary, Dora, but it's hard to see even Rue keeping this one from collapsing under its own stupidity.

    Rosenbaum is charming, and so is Sara Rue, as his assistant at the church. But pretty soon, the dumbness begins to settle in.

    Nothing is at all believable in the script, and nothing’s very funny, either. On top of that, the charm and abilities of Rosenbaum and Sara Rue, who plays the church secretary, are wasted with bad writing.

Yes,I laughed out loud multiple times during the first episode. And i honestly can't remember the last time that I did that during a show. Yes, there are a couple of stereotypical characters, but that happens during a 22 minute first episode that has to jam in an entire backstory for a show. The cast is very strong, especially Rosenbaum and Rue and I'm just really looking forward to see what happens next. Full Review »

I hated all those multi-cam "laughers" TV Land used to put on, but Impastor is brilliant! The acting, writing and look of the show are all excellent. It's very funny, and if they keep it as interesting as the pilot, I'm in for the season! Full Review »
