Loading ...The Future of Cancelled Television Shows
I gave Do Not Disturb another chance, I really did. I watched the second episode. I was optimistic and in return I was sorely disappointed. This show is a complete flub. Rhonda (Niecy Nash) runs around trying to keep playboy Neal (Jerry O’Connell) inline. Meanwhile the rest of the cast does their own little mischievous things. That isn’t the reason it sucks though. The reason is that the writing is poorly done. It’s rushed and has no uniqueness to it.
In the second episode Larry and Molly fight over who gets to direct the bell boy to the rich female hotel guests in exchange for a cut of his tips. Basically being the bell boy’s pimps. Now how is it even possible to make a great plot like that into a boring piece of crap? I don’t know but they accomplished it! One thing I noticed was that instead of trusting the audience to catch onto their transformation into pimpdom someone outright calls Larry a pimp. Subtlety is everything in a skit like that. *shakes head*
I was shocked to find out that the writer of Do Not Disturb actually worked on one of my favorite shows, Arrested Development. A comedic masterpiece such as that can’t possibly have any connection with this soon-to-be cancelled sitcom. Alas, my world is shattered. *gets over it*
