2 Broke girls – fans & haters

Who finds it funny? After a break from watching the series I caught an episode and found myself laughing in various bits. They have horrible NY accents yet even though it should be tired- there are still moments where you laugh out loud.

Mrsh is a hater. I thought it’d appeal to girlies?!

Awful awful awful. And sexist. And short person ist, Chineseist etc etc. No racial or class stereotype is left unexplored.

Have you seen Broad City? Part cringe part hilarious. Worth a watch 🙂

+1 – It’s like they set out to make a parody of all the various “isms” in sitcoms but forgot what they were doing half way through.

Awful show. I don’t find it funny whatsoever, and it’s full of dreadful stereotypes. Kat Dennings is its only saving grace :swoon:

It’s a bit predictable, but funny in parts.

Much prefer Brooklyn nine nine

The bits that feature Jennifer Coolidge (Blond, Polish, formerly Stiflers mum) are normally pretty funny. The rest is plain awful. Don’t hate it, theres just not enough good bits to make me want to watch it regularly.

I hear you and agree but still find it funny…. and I’d bought the boxset. I can see why its bad but that just makes me laugh

Watched it once. It was nice to see that the US is just as capable of making rubbish sitcoms as the UK. A lot of previously pretty good shows are in their death throes as well – eg Big Bang Theory. I can’t watch that now without thinking “They’re all getting $1m an episode for this…”.

Brooklyn Nine Nine has its moments.

American sit-coms, in the main are shite. Over acted, full of canned laughter and prescriptive. The “jokes” are almost always telegraphed.
The only two I’ve enjoyed were community and arrested development.

Loved those two (apart from the final netflix season of AD). 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation are worth a watch too if you like that sort of thing.

First season is a bit hit and miss (as with most sitcoms), but it picks up in the 2nd season and the 3rd is excellent.

This sums up the lifespan of sitcoms excellently:

Seriously! You need to check out Broad City. You’ll either love it or hate it. But it’s not boring!

I have no idea how 2 broke girls got made.
It’s like they are trying to create a parody of an unfunny sitcom.
Truly dreadful stuff.

Arrested development was great and as is Parks and Recreation (simply for the Ron Swanson moments).

Don’t trust the b!tch in apartment 23, far superior in my view, Krysten Ritter plays it excellently and most of the hate is directed at James van der Beek – often by himself.

Parks and Rec is just excellent.
