29. I'm definitely curious to see how they'll handle the cast

I can't imagine Goodman sticking around for the long term outside of guest spots, just like Metcalf, as they have plenty of things to do. Gilbert can likely manage it fairly well around her time on The Talk, but that's probably dependent on how big of a pickup it is. If they're smart, they'll keep it short.

I still haven't seen more than a couple of minutes of the first episode during a walk-by and have zero interest in watching it. I like several of the actors (Sarah Chalke made Scrubs hilarious for me) but not enough to wade into what they're selling here. My work keeps me following tabs on a lot of entertainment types so it's just part of my daily work cycle to hear about these things.
