    Waste of a time slot. What to say? The jokes are regurgitated Internet humor. The cast dynamic is way off. Certainly nothing the family can watch together. It all appears very forced, from the dialogue to the relationships. NBC, do America a favor and cancel it.

    NBC's comedy hits continue to go missing. Score one for NBC consistency. Just sad that the failings of the network are far funnier than anything they air on television. Truth be told, these are not interesting people or worse, not the slightest bit funny. I would not invite them into my living room every Friday night or ever again,

    Two major flaws in this series from the onset: Canned laughter (which needs to be excised from television permanently), and both actresses. Is it important to be attractive in a sitcom? No. Is it necessary to understand the art of comedy? Yes. My advice... rewrite the show to center on the two men, possibly raising a child together (i.e. remake of My Two Dads?), and if you can'tTwo major flaws in this series from the onset: Canned laughter (which needs to be excised from television permanently), and both actresses.

    Truth Be Told is more of a "look at me, I'm not PC!" shout of self-regard.

    The first episode's reflexive need to be topical quickly feels more like running through a hot topic checklist than situations generated by actual characters.
