I've seen it a couple times and I really like it. I don't know why but I do. I also really like David Cross's character. Anybody else seen it, what do you think?

I've watched the first 3 episodes and have been laughing loud during them. Really a funny show, but I have a feeling it won't last unfortunately. The show is probably too quirky for most viewers.

I like it a lot, and I'm the typical television viewer. I don't own cable, and the only other network program I watch is The Simpsons.
Uhm, maybe I'm not typical, and yea, it'll probably die before too long. Still, its funny as s--t.
I especially loved the scene where the guy tries to throw the letter into the ocean, but it keeps blowing back onto the beach.

Dear God, I pray this show doesn't get cancelled. I love it so much.

My TiVo picked this show up, and I watched it this week...it's the episode with Clint Howard, Liza Minelli, and the Desi Awards.
It's easily the funniest thing I've seen on American TV in years. I'm really sorry I missed the episodes before it.

I like when the wannabe actor cries in the shower. I'm laughing just thinking about it.
Too bad it won't last. Too smart for networks.
Although, I think I saw that it got a season extension? Read that some show got extended in the USA Today.

Just a day or two after this thread started, the Washington Post ran an article (last saturday maybe?) coimplimenting in and wondering how long it would last.

"Have we tried Up/Off?"
Lordy, that's comedy.

Seven year old George Micheal (the character, not the singer) mistakenly watching "Oz" on HBO thinking it was going to be Wizard of Oz. Classic.

(Paraphrasing)
"And so Job, against his will, was pressed up against the window of the conjugal trailor where his parents were becoming intimate..."
The last couple week's slacked off a bit, last nights was awesome.

I have a very good feeling about this show not getting cancelled. You ask why, my Dad has been watching it.

Another good episode tonight. They're really, uh, developing each character.
The hot cops were great. No David Cross tonight, unfortunately. Buster going "Why are you hitting yourself?" was fantastic.

I continue to be amazed how smart & funny this show is.
The kid that plays George Michael is a really, really good actor.

Towards the top right. Even if you just delete them or have them sent to your junk mail every little bit helps. Especially if you aren't a Nielsen family.
