I downloaded the first three episodes of Matthew Perry's new TV show, Go On. Here's a short synopsis from the show's IMDb page:
An irreverent yet charming sportscaster who, after a loss, finds solace from members of his mandatory group therapy sessions.
The show's jokes aren't that great, but there are a few funny lines here and there. My favorite line was in the first episode, when Matthew Perry's character Ryan was talking about the importance of competition, "Bradley Cooper is the sexiest man alive because apparently People magazine has never heard of a Mr Ryan Gosling". I know!
This show seems very familiar. Is it familiar to 2 Broke Girls because:
a) Cool African old man:
b) Weird bearded man:
but that's not quite it, this show shares many components with another show, but which?
a) A cool guy who doesn't really fit into this group of people; he is there because it was mandatory for his career, yet the group "grows" on him
b) Uptight lady who wears cardigans and thinks everything is over sexual
c) A mom
d) Funny Asian
e) Strong female character who questions her strength after the main character joins the groups. Also, it's obvious some relationship is going to emerge here
According to this Cracked.com article, Community is in fact Scrubs, and in which case all three shows are the same. Go On is better than the others, because:
a) There's a crazy cat lady
b) It has the kid from Everybody Hates Chris
Final rating: 3/5
