    There are lots of jokes about the sexual and intellectual traits of white trash, apparently the only remaining socio-economic minority without PC protection, but out of respect for the billions of pixels leaping to their fiery deaths to bring you this review, we will say no more.

    It’s a silly premise, the characters look to be pretty flat and a climactic mashup of Handel’s “Hallelujah” chorus and “Eye of the Tiger” nearly made this woman lose her will to survive. Worst of all is the shamelessness of the Pitch Perfect mimicry.

    Seems like a worthwhile attempt at something at least a little bit out of the sitcom mould. Like having some music thrown in. A small townSeems like a worthwhile attempt at something at least a little bit out of the sitcom mould. Like having some music thrown in. A small town version of Glee?

    Basically the Grinch meets Andy of Mayberry (except Andy is the waitress in this plot).

Not the worst, but nowhere close to the quality of classic timeless sitcoms.

    Will be a surprise if this gets renewed.    … Full Review »

    The stereotype humor of Perfect Harmony -- rich elitist Yankee professor looking down on "uneducated" southern Appalachian blue collar workersThe stereotype humor of Perfect Harmony -- rich elitist Yankee professor looking down on "uneducated" southern Appalachian blue collar workers -- was funny for about two episodes. Then it turned grating as it became apparent that's the only humor the writers have to offer AND it's the foundation for every other element of the show.

    I gave the show four but I'm checking out. It's a one trick pony that has nothing of lasting value to offer. It's little more than typical Hollywood-bubble writers continuing to denigrate rural/southern people through extreme and outlandish stereotypes just to get a few laughs.

    But at least they cast the right person to play the elitist, holier-than-thou Yankee professor type. Bradley Whitford is practically typecast in the role (follow him on Twitter and see for yourself).    … Full Review »
