I think Matthew Perry may have finally found a character that isn't Chandler Bing that he can make work! First Courtney Cox in Cougar Town and now this. Miracles.
MP plays a sarcastic (obvs) manager? or something of the Sunshine Center, your basic arena for any and all events. He carries his disinterestedness very well, I almost think this character is much closer to his real personality than even Chandler was.
Andrea Anders traveled over from the remains of "Better Off Ted", which I was very excited to see! She played almost the same character, but oh well, I love that character!
Allison Janney is one of those faces that is so familiar but hard to place. I recognize her from random spots in Juno and 10 Things I Hate About You. She's so talented, and I love that she's playing the spacey and ridiculous owner of the Center. From the previews, I thought she was going to be MP's assistant or something.
Ok, so don't hate me, but I didn't recognize any of the other characters except for Hurley!! (Which was amazing, but I don't know if he'll be a regular?) So, I'm not going to comment on them, yet. I am happy to say that I had quite a few LOL moments, which I always demand from my comedies, so I will keep watching for a while.
Props to Perry, I guess he wrote, produced, blah, blah. Basically, the whole thing is his. Here's his interview with Jon Stewart on the Daily Show. He did pretty well...looks old though.
