Sep 21, 2015I didn't finish watching the first episode. But it did seem very generic. The humor was stale even if the story-telling was not per se. Also, there seems to be this idea that saying words dealing with genitalia is somehow funny, like those words are still taboo or something.

Sep 22, 2015I wasn't wild about the concept for this show, but I was pleasantly surprised by the pilot. Was it great? Not hardly. But it was passable, which is a step up for recent new comedies. It was four short stories, and the middle two were actually pretty amusing. But the first and last were hard to watch. That makes the show a toss up at this point.

Descriptions cannot convey the crispness of the writing, and the surprising chemistry that’s already in place among a group of actors with widely differing styles of comedy. Credit writer Justin Adler and director Jason Winer for coming up with an atmosphere and look for Life In Pieces that unifies, rather than fractures, the show.

The cast is stacked, the timing is jaunty, the jokes are good, especially for a pilot.... And yet the show is still four shows jammed into one, with each segment almost entirely self-contained. The series feels neurotically aware of all the other things you could be doing instead of watching it.

It's a finish [several seemingly disjointed stories are brought together by the end of the episode] more sitcommy than the show seems to call for, but one not weak enough to upset the balance of funny and heartfelt that made me want to see a bit more, even if it was just for the pleasure of this company.
