When I heard there was a new comedy from Tina Fey I had to check it out. But when i watched it, I thought, is this conventional sitcom about an interfering mother and her reporter daughter really by the woman who created 30 Rock and Kimmie Schmidt?? The answer is no. Fey is the producer but not the creator, and there is little of the insane, bordering-on-surreal touches that distinguish her own creations.Still, the series is reasonably funny. There are moments when it's quite funny. Andrea Martin does a solid job as the mother and things move pretty quickly.But after two episodes, I just don't see why I would bother watching this when there are series like Kimmie Schmidt and Speechless I could watch instead.

It's not going to win an Emmy or anything, but it's a lot of fun to watch. This isn't a turn-off-your-brain comedy either. It's clever. You have to be paying attention to catch all the jokes. My only disappointment is that season 1 is only 10 episodes. I'm looking forward to season to next year.

I watched two episodes and found both painful to view. The characters are more irksome and predictable than funny. Perhaps this show will appeal more to people who can relate to an intrusive, overbearing mother or a weak willed daughter ... ? I am especially disappointed since Tina Fey is an executive producer - she is usually spot on.

I don't dislike this show.You can definitely see many of Robert Carlock's & Tina Fey's touches in the show. Tracey Wigfield & Briga Heelan both have had previous notable efforts and moderate successes, and really seem to be keeping extremely busy. Briga recently playing the great Heidi character on the Netflix series LOVE.Here's what bothers me about this show... Did they think we wouldn't notice?This show is a sliced and diced, chopped, pressed and reformatted version of 30 Rock.Tina Fey/Briga Heelan - Liz Lemon/Katie Wendelson John Michael Higgins/Tracy Morgan - Chuck Pierce/Tracey Jordan Jane Krakowski/Nicole Richie - Jenna Maroney/Portia Scott-Griffith Horatio Sanz/Judah Friedlander - Justin/Frank RossitanoThe list goes on.Unlike the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, which was a wide departure from a show about a show format, this show has Wigfield, Fey & Carlock back in VERY familiar territory. It remains yet to be seen whether they've managed to capture lightning in a bottle, or merely static electricity on the rug.As many have noted, the WONDERFUL Andrea Martin has really carried the first few episodes, but she can't do it alone and this show be a success. The first 3 episodes have been a great starting point, but there's a definite need for some more spit and polish if this show is going to make it long term.
