Matt Roush says...
“Our marriage was getting in the way of our getting along,” explains Jim (Two and a Half Men’s Jon Cryer) in the mediocre pilot episode of a domestic post-divorce sitcom getting a peculiar Saturday preview in advance of its actual premiere on Jan. 2. Jim’s amicable divorce after 17 years with Julia (Abigail Spencer) becomes something of a prickly triangle when she falls for Boston Celtics owner Trey (Scrubs’ Donald Faison), and new rules need to be established in the shared “nest” where the exes take turns raising their kids. The pilot episode revolves around Jim and Julia trying to hide the bad news from 13-year-old daughter Grace (Sofia Cappana) that her goldfish died while she was away at camp. Thankfully, the off-putting device where the characters explain everything directly to the camera—this isn’t Modern Family, folks—tones down in future episodes. While it would be nice to extend some Christmas charity to this new series, the stars are the best thing about a show that comedically feels like getting a lump of coal in one’s stocking.
