11 Years Later

It was nice to see the gang together again, but enough already with the politics! The rhythm for the most part was great and reminiscent of the good old days with the exception of Messing. She seemed stiffest and not just physically. I felt as if Messing was playing herself and soap-boxing for the Dems. Reminded me of the twitter feud she had Susan Sarandon last year.

If they could drop that political heavy handedness it would be so much better.

Also, missed Shelley Morrison.

Of course if you are a fan of the series (which I was), then you'll be open to the overuse of political "humor" and Trump bashing as you bask in the glow of the return. But It was a cheap hedge by the writers to use this mechanism to add currency to the show's return. Imagine the potential plot lines available just to give in to the obvious temptation. Too much, too heavy and the times have moved way past the innovative stories from a decade ago. Still love the characters.

As one review said, the humor does feel like they're trying too much at times, but it must have been awkward for them as well to play together after so many years.

It's been 11 years and everything has changed. I just wanted to say that people shouldn't be so harsh and base opinions regarding the new season solely on one episode. I'm sure that acting, humor and their on-screen chemistry will get more natural over the episodes.

All in all, good to have them back and I can't wait for more!

This episode seemed tired and I was literally weary but relieved when it ended. I enjoyed the show back in it's day, but their time has come & gone. I felt as though I was watching a comedy spoof of CNN. I fully expected Rachel Maddow and Alec Baldwin to appear as characters. Honestly, Debra Messing using the good 'ol Cheetos joke (which the public has heard over & over & over) plus the "Make America Gay Again" hat just landed flat. It came across as trying to hard to be funny but simply not able to bring it to fruition. Nope; I gave the first episode my attention...30 minutes I'll never get back....my bad, time is a terrible thing to waste. Moving away from the "been-there" "done that" "heard it 100+ times already political rhetoric, the story line was simply lame. The characters are too old not to have moved on a bit...the story should have at least been set in a different scenario...the same old, same old after a decade is dull and boring...e.g., no one would recreate "Friends" and have them reiterating their 20-something lifestyle at the age of 45+, e.g., coffee shop rendezvous and ridiculous dates. Having Jack portray an emotionally, immature 25 yr old now that he is 40+ comes off as weird & creepy. I love Karen!! Love her...she needs her own show -- please! The other three - not so much.

I'm sorry, this is a sad moment.

I have watched 3 episodes so far of the new 2017 season, and I'm done.

I have watched all the other episodes of all the seasons at least 4 times now. The old WAG is my favorite show ever.

This new one, it's not. The actors are like trying to be an imitation of themselves, the acting, the plot, the jokes, the laughs of the audience, it's so bad I can't even .... please, just horrible.

Grace looks extremely unlikable, it's like everything is fake about her, even her acting.

I tried very hard and was ready to laugh very hard, instead I was watching the clock, to see when the suffering would be over...

I understand people need and want to make money but this is a complete waste, it's so bad. I'm done. Bye WAG, thank you for the old seasons, let me just forget this new 2017 season ever happened.
