I could swear NBC body-dumped a sitcom last year with the same initial premise.April 13, 2011
Some of the situations they encounter on the dating and relationship circuit are promisingly wacky, but the tortured jokes lean way too heavily on pop-culture references.April 13, 2011
[David] Caspe and crew do almost nothing that doesn't feel secondhand and artificial.April 13, 2011
Happy Endings quickly gets its game in gear.April 13, 2011
As of one episode, it's decently entertaining, though its sharp writing suggests potential.April 13, 2011
It's a sitcom. The requirements for logic are more relaxed here.April 13, 2011
It's all too frantic, too full of obnoxious people contorting themselves into stupid lies in the service of jokes that never quite land.April 13, 2011
Happy Endings is really no better than any of those other comedies, which is to say, it's pretty weak.April 13, 2011
Despite the fact that it's a clone lacking in conceptual originality, despite its cliched situations involving too-needy women and emotionally phobic men, I like this show.April 13, 2011
There's desperation here, and if Happy Endings would slow down long enough to let itself breathe, it might find a footing.
