I watched since I am a guy with kids and holy crap was this show terrible. I winced the entire way through it so much that I annoyed my wife. The girl who played Meadow Soprano is just a horrible actress. The laugh track is so loud that it was distracting. The jokes were lame. The plot was a ripoff of an old Wings episode. I could go on and on. Just terrible.
 
My wife saw a commercial for it and commented how she thought it was funny and we should DVR it. I successfully and quickly shot down that idea.
 
From the previews it seemed to me there weren't any actual parents involved in the writing of the show.
I made it through about 7 minutes of The Neighbors last night after Modern Family. I'll be surprised if the show lasts til next week.
Of course, I also thought 2 Broke Girls was dumb and it became a hit.
 
It's on my DVR now. Wife and I watched its lead-in show, "Animal Practice", and thought it was severely disappointing (although the monkey is hilarious). All the new NBC stuff has fallen flat for me except "Go On", which I actually really like.
 
My wife watched the Mindy Project. What I saw of it was just awful. Self indulgent crap with no real plot and an unlikable main character who won't stfu.
 
Oh, America...

Guys with Kids - 4.7 million viewers; 1.6 demo
Mindy Project - 4.7; 2.4
2 Broke Girls - 10; 3.7
Go On - 7.3; 2.7

Parks & Rec - 3.5; 1.7 :rulz:
 
Watched 3 minutes of Kate & Ben before deleting. Partners & The Mindy Project are on the DVR.

Saw enough horrible promos during The Olympics to avoid all new NBC sitcoms.

"Don't be so hard on yourself, Mindy! YOU'RE AWESOME, MINDY!" -All 30 minutes of The Mindy Kaling Project

I'm jealous, I forged ahead and watched the other 20 minutes of Kate & Ben. So bad. So so bad.

Is there anything worth a damn for new shows, of any genre? If "Go On" is the best in class, that's a sad state of affairs.
 
Watch "The Neighbors." It is literally the worst thing that has ever been put on television.
 
It's a last resort at this point.

I would have thought after The Shield that Anthony Andersen would have made a leap. He's wasted talent in crap like this.
