I’ve learned the hard way (on here) NOT to pay any attention to comments and just watch the shows or movies myself and then decide.
As a Brit who has watched Miranda (not by choice) I think they shouldn’t have used her show format at all. If they had just put together a ‘normal’ comedy about a cat loving single 30 something it would’ve been a lot better.
The parts of the show I didn’t like were the bits taken from Miranda - bursting into song for no reason; the silly waving from all the cast at the end, for example.
But putting all the Miranda stuff aside, this was a much better show. I liked it and enjoyed watching. It’s a feel good show and the cats are adorable! Unlike Miranda, the characters are also likeable and relatable and the storyline is much better too.
I think Mayim got better in the role as the episodes went on and I think she did a good job. She should make it her own and not try to be another version of Miranda - that would no doubt improve the show.
Production should also stay away from the episodic storylines regurgitated from Miranda and just come up with their own fresh ideas.
Anyone sitting on the fence should give this show a chance. It’s worth watching to get to know the characters and see where they go - which is what makes a good show in the first place. Looking forward to season 2!
I agree. Never watched Miranda but yeah, the worst parts of the show were the parts you described that were apparently lifted from across the pond. The awkward Sesame Street-like cast waving-goodbye thing just annoyed me from the beginning.
IMO it was ok, and got a little better as it went on - and I loved Bialik on Big Bang so like you I really wanted to like it more. My wife definitely liked it a lot more than me. Leslie Jordan was probably the funniest overall.
I think my biggest gripe is setting it in Kentucky. They have only one person with an accent from the area, for example. I live in eastern TN just south of there and their version of Louisville is nothing like the “real” one, much less the entire region around it. I think they should have set it in Washington or Oregon somewhere - the lack of accents, the more progressive political attitudes, the diversity of the cast/extras - all of that is closer to the Pac Northwest than Appalachia-ish KT. Plus, mentioning Dolly Parton is about the only thing that provides a little “local” flavor, and she’s from TN. Why promote/celebrate an idealized image of a place that is in reality closer to the Ohio of “Hillbilly Elegy” than to their seemingly generic American city?
