Synopsis:
CMT’s first scripted sitcom, WORKING CLASS, starring TV veteran Melissa Peterman and
Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning actor Ed Asner, makes its
network debut Friday, January 28 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT, followed by a
second, all-new episode at 8:30 p.m., ET/PT.
The new 12 episode, multi-camera series follows Carli Mitchell
(Melissa Peterman), a single mom from a rough and tumble
background, trying to give her three kids a better life by moving them
to an upscale suburb. She quickly finds that making the transition to
“the good life” is harder than she thought. She's unwittingly
befriended by her cranky neighbor, Hank (Ed Asner), her only
“career” prospect is a glorified deli job at the local grocery store, and
the man she falls for not only already has a girlfriend – but he’s also
her boss, Rob (Patrick Fabian). With her ladies-man brother, Nick
(Steve Kazee), to help her out (when he’s not acting like one of the
kids himself), Carli faces the challenges of parenting, dating, and
making friends in her new community by doing more with less,
staying true to herself and approaching each day with a touch of
working class.
Starring: Melissa Peterman, Ed Asner, Patrick Fabian, Steve Kazee, Lachlan Buchahan, Courtney Merritt, Cameron Castaneda

My Opinion:
Eagerly I watched this first episode in this new series, hoping it would make me laugh, entertain me, and make me want more. It did two of those. I did laugh a couple times, and was glued to it to the end, but I felt like I've seen this a million times before. It just isn't going to stick with me come tomorrow.
The hubby thinks we should give it another shot. And I most likely will, but only if I don't see something better on.
3/5
Recommend? If you like Reba, yes.

I LOVE country and I love these actors. I must check this out.
ReplyDeleteSounds like one I won't be watching. Not that I get to watch much more than hockey and football this time of year.
ReplyDeleteWell we don't have television so we won't be watching anything. I hope you can get into this show.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day. :)
I only have watched Reba a few times, but I didn't like it that much. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of Reba and the storyline on this one sounds a little thin but I love Ed Asner. Maybe I'll give it a look.
