Perfect Harmony

I'm not sure if the critical reviewers actually watched the same Program I did. This program is outright funny. The music is outstanding and the characters as presented are real. One might actually grow to love them all, even with their all too human flaws.

It's really kinda funny... the jokes are clever and cute

I think the first episode is one of the best tv comedy episodes I ever saw. It has genuine wit like something by Shaw or Wilde or Twain, and genuine heart, although in the context of comedy well made (contrived) plot structure. I was astounded when I found not every one shared my reaction

(Initial Impressions) This new series needs some work. The story is rushed and uneven. It was as if they were trying to fit a whole season of plot into one episode. The talent is there, there just needs to be room for them to realize their characters. The motivation for the characters was either non-existent or muddled. I was looking forward to some good music, but all we got is a mishmash of noise. Based on the pilot, I give the episode a 4 (poor) out of 10. Based on the talent, I expect this to get better, so I'm giving the series an optimistic 6 (potential) out of 10. {SitCom with music}

When I saw the trailer for this show, I wasn't sure, but desperate to find a decent comedy to watch, I gave it a chance! I am so glad I did! It's amazing and hilarious and refreshing and the camaraderie amongst the cast (that at first glance doesn't look like they'd mesh) is what really drew me in. I grew up in a small town church so I can relate to a little of it. Newcomer Spencer Allport and new to me Bradley Whitford and Anna Camp are breaths of fresh air with great comedic timing. Please give it a watch. We need more laughter in this world! I only watched This Is Us and Young Sheldon prior but so glad to have some more laughter.
