When Paul Lee, president of ABC Entertainment Group, announced that he was doing a sitcom with Rebel Wilson, his excitement for it got us all excited. Then we watched the pilot and our excitement waned. I guess those of us who saw it weren’t the only ones who were disappointed with it because less than 2 weeks before the series premiere, the network has opted to air the second episode instead of the pilot. Most of the time when this happens, the show is in trouble. And who knows, maybe episode 2 is a whole lot better and will sway us towards liking the show. But after reading this description for it, “Kimmie wants the gang to broaden their horizons and try something they’ve never done before. But she’s not so brave when she finds out their next super fun night destination is a piano bar. Can she face her biggest fear, singing in public?”, I don’t think that will be the case.
I am still hoping that show has gotten better as they started to film more episodes because I like Wilson and Conan O’Brien, but the pilot was such a let down that I am not sure I even want to watch the second episode. Although I kind of like the second episode of Dads and I hated that pilot the first go around. So maybe there is a glimmer of hope for the show?
