Arrested Development

When the son finds he must "man up" after his father is incarcerated for some rather shady accounting practices, life becomes a roller coaster ride for the entire family. Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman) is a widower who has a thirteen year old son and finds the entire family needs his support (and common sense) to survive. Mom (Lucille) lives in a penthouse by herself but cannot afford her chosen lifestyle. Michael has two brothers, Buster and GOB, in addition to a sister Lindsay and her husband Tobias plus a daughter called Maeby. They each must learn to cope with their sudden alternate financial dilemma. Seems the family financial assets have been "frozen" due to dad's shifty money handling. Each member of this rather dysfunctional family needs to learn how to cope with limited finances after living a rather pampered existence before dad went off to prison. The show is narrated by a familiar voice (Ron Howard) who is also an executive producer. This "riches to rags" story shows how selfishness and materialism can create some rather unpleasant personality conflicts but a sense of humor will prevail. And there is plenty of humor on this show.

This Fool

This Fool" is an American comedy television series created by Chris Estrada, Pat Bishop, Matt Ingebretson, and Jake Weisman. The show stars Estrada and Frankie Quiñones. It premiered on Hulu on August 12, 2022 and was renewed for a second season in November 2022. The series follows Julio Lopez, a 30-year-old man who still lives with his mother and grandmother in his childhood bedroom and works at a gang rehabilitation center in Los Angeles called Hugs Not Thugs. His older cousin Luis, a former gang member, is in the rehabilitation program after being released from prison. The series was created by Estrada with producers Bishop, Ingebretson, and Weisman, and Fred Armisen is an executive producer. All 10 episodes of the first season were released on Hulu on August 12, 2022.

Mr. Sunshine

Returning to television as the star of ABC's "Mr. Sunshine," Matthew Perry faces two formidable challenges: First, he must out-grow, live-down, or crawl out of his intimate association with Chandler, his legendary "Friends" persona. Second, Perry and co-star Allison Janney must inspire their audience to forget "Mr. Sunshine" replaces Courtney Cox's hit "Cougar Town." Perry and Jenny benefit from writers' and producers' wonderfully quirky visions of their characters and unusual situation. Perry plays Ben, a character potentially as memorable as Chandler but with far greater depth and much richer melancholy mid-life undertones. Operations Manager of The Sunshine Center, a run-down San Diego arena, home of the circus and lingerie football, Ben learns on his fortieth birthday that his girlfriend is leaving him because he is so thoroughly self-involved he has no love left over for anyone else. Jenny plays Crystal, the arena's pill-popping owner who could become America's next favourite villain on the strength of her thinly veiled racism and despise of children, except that Jenny's consummate skill as an actress redeems her. One Los Angeles reviewer wisely concludes, "["Mr. Sunshine"] isn't perfect; and it won't change the landscape of comedic television right away, even though it's part of a game-changing three-hour comedy block for ABC. But it is taking all of the important steps in the right direction." If "Mr. Sunshine" seems a little wobbly at first, viewers should remember "Cougar Town's" first-episode identity crisis, allowing lots of latitude for Perry's and "Mr. Sunshine's" rapid evolution.

Happy Endings

The new half hour sit-com called Happy Endings is an American TV series that has not only a great cast but extremely talented writers, producers, and directors and that almost always guarantees a successful run. Making it work with a single camera approach, stars Zachary Knighton (Dave) and Elisha Cuthbert (Alex) were ready to be married when she left him literally "at the altar" . We begin visiting their lives and the friends, whose lives revolve around them, enjoying the pratfalls and miss-communications as they occur. Zachary Knighton, formerly from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and Elisha Cuthbert of "The Forgotten" and "24" head up a cast that includes Eliza Coupe portraying Jane, Adam Pally is Max, Casey Wilson is Penny, and Damon Wayans, Jr. trying to be serious as Brad. The group have been long time friends but when the very couple that brought them all together suddenly split up their loyalty becomes conflicted. As each struggles to deal with their own individual personal issues they try to remain friends in spite of the personal earthquake the break up has created. Humor is what holds them all together in the long run.

Bunk

Those who ever watched Idioracy (2006) are aware of the future of television and the appearance of IFC's Bunk will not be in surprise for them. Rest of the people should know this kind of comedy reality series will be dominating till times when everyone would think it's normal to invent a new family-friendly look of David's genital on Michelangelo's masterpiece. Yes it was one of the idiotic contest of second episode of Bunk where two "professional" "comedians" (it's not a coincidence nor mistype that two of words are quoted) fight for ambiguous prizes like "Super Powers", "Universal Alibi" etc. performing silly tasks like "to shame a baby". The series was produced by Kurt Braunohler, an American comedian which is known to us by his roles in Delocated, The Heart, She Holler, Comedy at the Fringe, Jon Benjamin Has a Van and Comedy Lab.
