[quote name='The SPism']any word on this being free for xbl too?[/QUOTE]
Not sure - I'm not seeing it up in the Marketplace at all right now. The first episode of Parks and Recreation, though, is free.
[quote name='Treythalomew']At the end of the episode you realize that every episode is gonna be about him balancing his lying and his desire to get the girl.[/QUOTE]
Yes, every episode will be
exactly like the pilot.
I liked the first episode. Joel McHale is hilarious, and it looks like they've got a good cast to work with. I'm not quite sure how they're going to fill out an entire season - right now, the only thing the characters have in common is that one Spanish class - but I'm willing to give the show a shot and see where it goes. It's definitely got the pieces it needs to succeed, but who knows if it will?
For anyone who's already written it off, just remember: when NBC gives sitcoms time to grow, we've gotten Seinfeld, Cheers, and The Office in the past.
[quote name='gettinmoney662']People actually liked My Name Is Earl?[/QUOTE]
It's one of those shows that began with a good premise, but got lost somewhere along the way. I'm more surprised that there are people that liked Earl, but don't like Community - the shows feel similar.
