Simply not funny.


I've tried to watch this a couple of times now, but it's only managed to annoy me and never made me laugh. And that voice that Kudrow is using is ridiculous. I was never a fan of Friends, but I liked Kudrow in everything else I've seen her in, but this just isn't good.

I just watched the first episode yesterday. I enjoy dry humor, this I didn't find funny at all I don't even think I cracked a smile, I understand which parts I was suppose to find funny, but it just didn't deliver. Debating on whether giving episode 2 a shot.

It gets much better.

We shall see. I LOVED the Comeback and like Lisa in most things (not in Friends, which I loved). But Web Therapy episode 1 was quite unamusing. Dark, I will take your word for it and watch a couple more episodes.

reply

I gets much better...just keep watching.

It isn't funny. It's hilarious.

I'm with you - one of the funniest shows on TV. And I've never watched Friends!

reply

Her voice is often so annoying that I almost turned this series off after 2 minutes.

I, too, understand how it is "supposed" to be funny, - but I'm really on the fence about watching much more.

reply

I've watched 4 episodes - some of the guest stars are funny, but for the most part the show is not funny.

I completely agree...One Of The Best, Funniest Comedies...EVER. PERIOD.

If you don't get dry humor...then this isn't the show of you. Not everyone will get the joke.

reply

Yeah I have to disagree with the TC. I find this show extremely funny. Maybe you're use to a different kind of humor/comedy on television? Like blu_panther69 said, perhaps dry humor shows like this isn't for you.

I have to say that if you think this is one of the funniest shows then I hate to know what you think is funny. I have tried to watch this show several times and not once does it make me laugh, not even to cracking a little itty bitty smile. I watch and try to find anything in the show that is funny and its just bad. Very bad. Please pin point the funny comments, the things that make you laugh to me. Please. Because I simple do not see it in any of the shows I have watched. The one that Lilly Tomlin was in even was awful. I have watched Lilly since she was on Laugh In and this was like a sad attempt to be back on TV for her. I hate seeing Prime time on a premium channel being wasted by this crap.

I am completely floored by that comment. I don't know how any serious person could make that statement about THIS show. And to some of those other posters, I DID give this show a shot. I watched the first three episodes of it to try to find something in it, but I just didn't laugh. It's not funny.

I am trying to watch this again and I just sit here trying to figure out what this show is about really. Its literally not funny. It is just so boring. I do not get why people watch this. I dont get it. I am a big TV junkie and this show gives nothing to the audience. It's like listening to people just shoot the sh*t and have nothing important to say so how entertaining is that. Its like everyone is trying to give her a hard time on a web cam. Where does the therapy come into play as the name of the show is called.And the accent that Kudrow does is just to much.

That is why we all have different taste in what we watch. I love the show. That's just me. Nothing wrong with you not liking it. No one is forcing you to watch it either, so...

These negative kind of threads are tiresome....this is a very good show. I came her to see if there would be, hopefully, a 4th season. Does anyone know? I would look forward to it.

I haven't seen that many episdodes but from what I have seen (Kudrow, Cumming, O'Donnell, Streep) this show is brilliant, fantastic actors and just wonderful acting, and the stars really seem to be enjoying it. The bitchiness, arrogance, etc is just so real and you get the impression that, given they have been around Hollywood for so long, the stars really seem like they have seens years of this falseness, shallowness, arrogance and bitchiness!! Look for example at how Kudrow spits out every line between here teeth, genius!!

Completely agree, the only show i think that compares to this one is keeping up appearances, which is my favorite all time show, id have to rank this second.... I just love a snotty b i ... h well you know ;) lol.. and to the people who dont get the humour, i sort of understand because it took me watching about the first seven episodes to fully get into it,then , i went back and watched them again , and its been laugh after laugh ever since... i mean,ive been in tears from this show laughing.. All i can say is give it another chance , because it is a brilliant show. Kudrows character just basically belittles everyone and helps herself rather than others which is what she is supposed to be doing as a therapist, she is a sociopath. It is hilarious, and ;) wonderful.. Cannot WAIT for season 4 ~~~ yipppe !!!kay yay !!

Well thats WONDERFUL! !! lol.. it truly is the funniest show ive ever seen... And ive basically seen every sitcom u could imagine .... Glad u like it.. season 3 is great and season 4 begins October 22nd..!! i cannot wait !!:)

I'm with OP. Can't stand this crap of a "show".

reply

I'm on board with OP... I got this on once in a while, I put on Showtime a lot when there is nothing else on.

I don't understand remotely how this show is good or entertaining. I think someone at Showtime is a fan of "Friends" giving all their own shows and things. "Episode" with Matt LeBlanc isn't half bad. I actually enjoy his work, I liked him in "Lost in Space", and with his gig, you can tell he is enjoying the show.

Lisa Kudrow on the other hand looks like she is trying too hard on this "Web Therapy" show. I find it hard to believe she is getting paid for doing a show like this to be honest. It's pretty mediocre.
