NBC had an inspirational comedy on their hands with Connecting…, but they didn’t handle it correctly. Therefore, today they announced that the sitcom, about our times now, will air its final four episodes on Peacock and NBC.com starting this Thursday at 8:30p.
Connecting… is a groundbreaking sitcom where the actors shot themselves via technology as they did stories about COVID-19, the lockdown, George Floyd, loneliness, and everything else in between. It was real, and it was funny. It just didn’t have enough of you watching.
I blame NBC for that. It was the first scripted show to air on NBC and did not have any other shows to promote it with. Comedies always have a hard time finding an audience, so throwing it out there, seeing if it can stick, is not going to work. They should have waited and paired it up with Superstore and debuted it then. Then it might have had a better chance.
If you missed it, then catch up on it on NBC.com and Peacock. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
