Anyone Else Like This Show?


I just watched the pilot and laughed my head off. Also, I liked the characters and it's anti-PC correctness (aka: edginess). Anyone else? If not, why don't you like the show?

I thought it was hilarious. but other posters here are disagreeing. I mean I love the Big Bang theory, but their premiere this year was pretty bad. Dr. Ken had me rolling.

I liked it. I think it shows promise, and I want to see where it goes.

I actually liked it. Of course, there were some jokes that fell flat, but overall, I enjoyed it.

I think I'd like it more if they would get rid of the heavy handed laugh track. I'd love to try the show without it, but it may be too late for that.

i think it's a decent family sitcom. it's nothing new and inventive and it doesn't want to be, i guess. i think it could be better, but it's nowhere near bad.
people probably expected something different from Ken - i know i did - but it's a nice show.

I thought it was mildly entertaining....I look at it like I look at Brooklyn 99.

I watched the first couple of episodes and thought it wasn't all that good...but as the actors got their feet under them, and the writing found it's legs, everything got much better.

I agree w/this analysis. I cringed through much of the first episode, but it had some very funny moments, and the second episode was hugely improved over the first. I think this show has the potential to really grow as they develop the characters and their dynamic, create fresher plots, and if they can soften the forced joke delivery and laugh track.

Even on the ratings they said it's doing surprisingly well despite alot of negative talk before the show aired.. ratings have been the same which are good for a Friday night show. Last season Selfie and Manhattan Love Story were cancelled after 4, to 7 episodes between both shows, they left Cristela on all season long but the ratings weren't that great. So I don't think Dr. Ken is going anywhere,it may get a full season.

I liked Cristela more than I like this show. But that may be because I enjoyed looking at Felix more than I enjoy looking at Ken. Heh.

Ha... I liked watching the Blonde co worker of Cristela's
