    The three episodes I’ve seen were just OK. ... [But] The three leads have a good chemistry, and the loss that triggered all the reevaluation adds a nice bit of poignancy to the show. Now the show, which airs Thursdays at 9:30 p.m., needs to pivot toward some better comic material.

    It is the show equivalent of finding it clever to say your biggest flaw is eating too much chocolate or that you are too perfectionist, when you are actually obsessively shoplifting and once set a homeless person on fire.
