Watched this on TiVo last night, and I don’t see a thread yet.

I think it has promise. Though the plot was nothing special: guy tries to stop his ex-girlfriend’s wedding; girl starts dating a new guy who turns out to be married. Nothing terribly original there.

But I liked the cast quite a bit, as well as the way they interact. The show has got a unique sort of rhythm to it that clicks for me.

Anybody else watch? What did you think?

I liked it enough to watch next week. It’s placement after New Girl should help keep viewers for a while.
