Call Me Kat

Just caught the first episode. I love Mayim. And the show is decent, but it's not as charming as the UK show it's trying to mirror called Miranda.

I'll probably still watch Call Me Kat, as I enjoy many of the actors in it, but it makes me really want to watch Miranda.

I wanted to write a review as there are a ton of bad reviews. I think the strongest part of the pilot episode was the last quarter of it, where Mayim was being less of a "Miranda" goofy and more of a goofy that fits her. I think it will find its stride over time. Not the strongest pilot, starts slow, but I do want to see what happens.

The format (where Kat talks to the audience intermittently throughout the show ) would be a bit more appreciated if you'd ever watched the original UK version of this show 'Miranda' ... which was a funny show ! This show hasn't quite reached that bar of well-timed British comedy and goofiness yet, but it definitely has potential to do so.

The show has a very good cast in Mayim and 2020's treasure Leslie Jordan, Cheyenne and Swoosie Kurtz etc .... It has heart and and has some laughs. Tighten up the writing and timing and I think it will be even better. I hope FOX gives the show time to find its rhythm!

People need to relax, this is Kat and not Miranda. Remember it's not an exact copy, and I'm glad they are bringing in some new material. It's the first show, and we have to get use to characters talking to the camera - the Brits have it down, and Mayim did a damn good job. We got some good chuckles from the show, and will love to see these characters develop. Congrats on your work.

While the pilot was mostly boring and unfunny, the second episode is a huge improvement. I hope it's not a one-off but I somewhat have hope in this show now. I wouldn't write it off so quickly. I think it has potential. Will be sticking around for a while.
