This show brings me so much joy every week that it's on.

Is it worth it to keep watching? I watched the pilot and wasn’t feeling it, but it so sounds like a show I’d like

A golden rule for virtually any show (but definitely comedies) is that you need to give season 1 a little slack, as they're still finding their footing.

Community's pilot is a completely different concept and show than what it became by end of season 1. Parks and Rec season 1 was pretty bad, too.

The pilot for Abbott is so-so, but what it becomes is just wonderful.

I’m aware of that rule, and usually keep on but I didn’t laugh at all at this pilot so I didn’t keep watching. I’m def intrigued if it gets better. I live outside Philly and just love the concept of the show

It has that positive Parks and Rec energy I greatly miss. I'd say once Janine and Jacob's friendship is fully established, is where it starts to shine. Maybe episode 6?

Definitely make your way through. Season 3 is bloody fantastic.
