ASP deserves this for leaving Gilmore Girls and making us Gilmore fans go through that horrible 8th season..

As a big GG fan, I so wanted to like this show. I so didn't. At all. Hopefully AS-P and DP wont be one hit wonders...

Being a big Gilmore Girls fan I initially had high hopes for this. Until people actually saw it and then heard nothing good about it.

There were several problems with it on various levels. The fake studio audience/laugh track really killed it. Try adding one to Gilmore Girls and you can get the idea. Get any MASH DVD and watch an episode without the laugh track and the enjoyment goes up. Laugh tracks just stink. They tell you what is funny, like I don't know I'm watching a comedy.

The way they shot the show was strange. The apartment was typical sitcom setup no ceiling, harsh lighting, and basic three camera setup. The office had a ceiling, the lighting was more natural, and it was shot more towards a single camera style.

And it just wasn't very funny. Gilmore Girls could be funnier in just one scene then this was in three episodes.

If this hadn't been canceled I would've removed it from my TiVo season pass. I don't even care if they don't air the rest of the episodes. Better luck next time ASP & DP. I'll be there to see what you two come up with next.

I didn't think the show was half bad--it needed tweaking but it bothers me networks would rather cancel something than work on it. I suppose with throwaway reality programming still bringing in sponsors and key demographics, why work on scripted programming that could be interesting?

They treat their shows like shit and I hope they never work again after the mess they made Gilmore Girls.

Luke has a 12 year old daughter, screw you.

They've made a wise decision cancelling it, but it makes you wonder why they commissioned it, the script wasn't funny and the premise was stupid. Regardless of the talent, nothing was going to make this good.

this show was so awful. i loved the two main actresses but the writing was terrible and neither character worked. honestly surprised it lasted past the pilot (which was super terrible).

the show being cancelled after three episodes means 0. tv stations today don't have the balls to take risk. furthermore, i'd question the marketing and advertising of the show before questioning the talent of the creators and actors. if people can buy pet rocks, people can damn sure watch a tv show if its marketed effectively.

I think the show should have been given a chance at a couple more episodes. What else are they going to put on Friday nights? It wasn't great, but it could have gotten better.

Aww man. This show definitely sucked, but I was hoping they would work on it...

I thought their dad was pretty funny though. I laughed at a few of his antics.

I never watched a single episode of Gilmore, but I tuned into the first episode of this show mainly for the lead actresses involved. I should have heeded your warning, because it was nearly unwatchable. Get this horrible mess off the air and try again.

I thought this show was OK. I liked Parker and I think they could have had some fun with her character, oh well.

I love Parker Posey, but the writing made her awful! It was an entirely cringe-worthy performance.

I thought they got rid of the show because of the movie coming out about a surrogate mother. It sounded very similar to the plot of this tv show.
