Terrible!

This joke of a comedy got off to the worst start possible. Was this supposed to be a semi-parody of the Simple Life or something? Never mind that Caroline called Paris Hilton 100 when she is only four years younger than Hilton. Paris Hilton was only 30 and Beth Behrs was 26 when her character made that stupid crack. I just don't get this show and it's unlikely I ever will. I don't know how it made 6 seasons. I know CBS has been struggling to find quality shows-something they are still struggling with today-but good grief, this show is beyond terrible. Two of the most unlikeable pairs in history And the writing and jokes are terrible.

Reviews Of Unusual Size! Re: When an ousted New York socialite is hired at a diner, the spoiled blond forms an unlikely friendship with the streetwise waitress that works there.

Outstanding: Kat Dennings has some pretty great deadpan humor.

Unacceptable: The setup for this TV show is horrible. The cute old black guy that mans the register at the diner should be hilarious, instead he's just mildly amusing. There's more blatant sexual humor than I'd expected.

Summary: I was kind of surprised. I should have disliked this show, but I actually laughed out loud a couple of times and I'm looking forward to the next episode. There's nothing I can pin down as excellent, but it's an amusing little sitcom. Why do they always title the first episode "Pilot"? I know it's because it's a pilot, produced to get the other episodes, but it seems like you'd be optimistic and give your first episode a legit title.

Pilot

With sharp and biting humour this show got off to a decent start, with good performances from Dennings and Bahrs carrying it through.

It won't be to everyone's taste, but it's not bad at all.

Paris Hilton is 100?

Honey, you're only a few years younger. If she's 100 you're 96. This stupid "comedy" was one of the worst on TV. I don't understand how it made it 6 seasons? I find absolutely nothing funny about this joke of a show. I know this review will probably make some people mad but I'm glad they don't rerun this show very much. It was 6 seasons of boring and cringing. Thank goodness CBS had Mike and Molly, otherwise CBS wouldn't have had any real hits in the comedy department at the time. Quite frankly, there were many cancelled shows I think were funnier. Since I'm inclined to say a little more here, let me just end with saying this doesn't even deserve 1 star.

Trivia
Final tally for cupcake business venture: $387.25.

Goofs
When Caroline is telling Max that the asking price for a cupcake is 7$ in Manhattan and they should sell it for 7$ instead of 5 and pocket the difference, when the camera is turned to Max you can see the price on the tray at the diner to be 1.50$ for cupcakes.

Max Black: No hipster. No. Do not think we're on the same team we have nothing in common. I wear knit hats when it's cold out, you wear knit hats because of Coldplay. You have tattoos to piss off your dad, my dad doesn't know he's my dad. And, finally, you think
