What’s the verdict on Trial & Error? The NBC TV show just finished its first season, but will there be a second? If renewed, would you keep watching the comedy series?
The mockumentary centers on Josh Segal (Nicholas D’Agosto), a new lawyer who must defend an eccentric, “rollercizing” poetry professor, Larry Henderson (John Lithgow), who has been accused of murdering his wife. The cast also includes Krysta Rodriguez, Steven Boyer, Jayma Mays, and Sherri Shephed.
Trial & Error premiered in March to a decent rating of 1.38 in the 18-49 demo and 5.92 million viewers. Since then, the numbers have fallen. Overall, season one averaged a 0.92 rating in the 18-49 demo and 3.86 million viewers. While not great ratings, the series has received some critical acclaim and Deadline says there have been conversations with NBC about a possible second season.
What do you think? Have you seen Trial & Error? Should NBC cancel or renew this comedy TV show? Would you watch season two?
Trial and Error is our favorite show!!! The writing, delivery, everything is fantastic! The crazy set, characters, perfectly casted, writing is dark twisted and outrageously funny! Truly hoping for season 2+!
BEST SHOW on prime time TV. Trial and Error is creative, laugh out loud funny and a great cast of actors. Keep the season coming. Renew!!!
Please bring Trial and Error back for a second season! The show is funny, intriguing and pure entertainment and the cast was great and it is rare to find this kind of show on Prime Time!
Yes!!!! We need a second season to keep up with any new
medical conditions Sherri Shepherd’s character might develop! lol
BEST SHOW on TV since The Grinder! The Good Place and Trial and Error are neck & neck for the best, most creative, funniest, best cast of anything on TV. It gives us a chance to laugh at ourselves and not take things too damn serious. We need more shows like these, especially today!
This show is sooooooo funny I haven’t laughed out loud at a tv sitcom since the big bang. I have to say NBC got a real winner with this one. Keep the seasons coming.
I rarely leave comments on a web page but…………..
This is truly the funniest show on TV and the only one that makes me laugh out loud! I realize that some people might think it corny but there are some comedic moments and lines that are real gems! The cast and the writers deserve an award – not a cancellation! Please renew!!
Murder board !! Love this show renew!!
I loved this show. It was hilarious and each plot turn and reveal left me wanting more. SO GOOD
I don’t know what it is, but I can’t watch for more than a few minutes before getting disgusted and turning it off. I have watched several entire episodes (with lots of pausing) and parts of another and it just pisses me off. I just want to slap each of the male characters upside the head until they stop their stupidity. All except Rutger Hiss whose character development will take place third hand while he is in a coma. Why? Was he disgusted too but contractually obligated?
Get a grip its supposed to be stupid, that’s what makes it funny. If you don’t like stupid funny shows, don’t watch and let the rest of us enjoy.
With all due respect David, I think you’re taking things too seriously. Sorry you can’t enjoy this lighthearted, clever, well written with lots of twists sitcom.
Sometimes you just need a show that doesn’t make your brain hurt. The cast pulls off the lunacy so well I can’t help but laugh out loud. Renew….renew….renew!
YEEEEEEEEEES, amazing show!!!!!!
SECOND DUMBEST SCRIPTED SHOW I’VE EVER SEEN. ON PAR WITH ANGIE TRIBECA ON THE “FOR IDIOTS” SCALE. SHAME TO SEE SUCH A TALENT AS LITHGOW INVIOLVED.
I doesn’t make you and idiot because you want to relax and laugh without keeping up with the plot. It goes back to fans of Airplane and Police Academy (like me) who think life is serious enough. If I get a chance to forget my life problems and laugh a while, I should be able to without being judged by an uptight jerk who calls me an idiot. Get a sense of humor.
This one of the few shows that makes me actually laugh out loud. Renew it!
Absolutely renew!! Very funny, my family hasn’t laughed so hard at a tv show for years!
