In Case of Emergency: Pilot (series premiere)

i thought the show was pretty good. it seemed like it jumped around a bit too much on the first episode, but the second one was a bit more progressive. the cast has some big names so i must think that they have something interesting in the upcoming episodes...

Personally, I think the show is hilarious! I loved the pilot episode! My husband and I couldn't stop laughing! Honestly, I'm not worried about the story line! I just enjoy a good laugh at the end of my day and this show was a good fix!

awful awful awful. don't know how i kept it on for 30 minutes. were we supposed to think a diet guru pigging out on cake was hilarious? i assumed i would hate david arquette the most (as i hate all arquettes), but next to silverman he's a genius. jonathan silverman might just be the absolute worst actor of all time. ever.

I didn't care for it. After so many chuckles w/ Knights, I was really disappointed. I'll give it another shot though - I'd like to see them pull the story together a bit more.

This is a show with a really solid cast, including Laughlin & Hu (both of whom I love and adore), which is why it's more than a little disappointing that it isn't better than it is. I like the dynamic between Silverman and Hu but I don't think much of the other male characters. As for Laughlin - who I've been watching since she was on the late lamented soap "The Edge Of Night" - so far she is totally wasted in this role, which is a shame.

Read the review and all of the comments so far and wondered why no one had noticed that this show appears to have many of the same elements as another show on another network that is wallowing in "will it be cancelled ville" called the Class.

And as to this being better than Knights....this show could not even clean Mick's dogs pool.

I dont think Kelly Hu was very hot, but I do liked this episode and thought it was interesting, so I will keep watching.

Kelly Hu looked fantastic, and quite frankly this show beat the pants off The Knights of Prosperity. I am going to be patient here and see what (other than a big crush on Kelly Hu) develops.

I caught the pilot last night and wasn't too impressed. I don't mind the premise or the zany character setups. I do mind that Harry, ostensibly the main character, is made to look pathetic from the start. He's weak and whiny. He was forgettable in high school, and they've made him a forgettable pushover now. That's a problem.

But, to be fair, they have to set up the characters and throw them together. What will make it a good show is what happens next. Either they find something interesting about these characters, or it's just boring schlock that'll end up in the bin.

Agreed across the board. Also, Kelly Hu is easy on the eyes. So a couple more episodes to see if it goes anywhere won't be too painful.
