I am so glad I didn’t give up on this show. Their writing has improved immensely and I now love this show. Just plain goofy humor. So it’s kind of far fetched as far as residency, but who cares? It’s a COMEDY show. Thumbs up for me. Hilarious! Please give continue with season 2!!
Love this show. Please don’t cancel weneed more comedy.
Not good. Cancel it.
Game Changer…. Love the story concept and Pat’s acting, as usual top knotch….
LOVE this show PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL
i love carols second act. it’s fresh and funny
Its really a great show I would just try a different night or perhaps a different time
Poorly written, highly predictable with forced laughs. This show does not deserve a second season
It’s so nice and funny to see the characters interact with each other. I enjoy the lightness, humor, and comradery that’s developing with the cast. Takes my mind off all the bad things that happen in other shows and are presented on the daily news shows.
This show is one of the most entertaining programs on TV right now. I absolutely love it and look forward to watching it each week. Please do not cancel it. There is an over abundance of serious shows on TV depicting violence, offensive language, serious medical dramas etc. we need some family shows that make us laugh.
this character grates on me like she does on the others in the show… but we watch it because my wife likes it… please cancel it…
This show, even as a comedy, bears NO resemblance to the realities of an internship year at any reputable training institution I know of. For my “midlife crisis,” I entered med school at age 43, s/p two divorces, PhD in Neuroscience, NIH post-doctoral research fellowship, university faculty positions, research grants, and publications in scholarly, peer-reviewed journals. I would not have lasted long as “Carol.” My fellow interns, house staff and attendings did not resemble the stereotypes portrayed. I kept a low profile, gained a tremendous amount of valuable clinical knowledge (not gleaned from “life” or basic science) by rotating through… Read more »
This show sucks
Truly, I can NOT see how this show made it to the 4th episode, let alone, be renewed for a full season!!!??? I would rather watch a leaky faucet drip! Horrible writing, poor jokes and acting. I couldn’t even muster up a smirk let alone a smile or laugh. Patricia Heaton has been good in the past but this is a HORRIBLE vehicle for any of the people on the show. Sorry, it really is poor.
I agree – terrible writers – unfortunate for a very talented Patricia Heaton.
Worst show I’ve ever seen
It was ok. I love Patricia Heaton but I’m afraid the old jokes are going to get, well, old quickly.
I thought it was good, but being totally new, they need to find their feet on this show, when they do i know it will be much better. but did get laughs from it and enjoyed it. Keep it coming.
Really??
