"The Class" May be Worth Checking Out

There's a show premiering on CBS September 18th called "The Class". When I saw the magazine ads for it, it didin't look very interesting but I heard a radio interview with series star Jason Ritter (son of and an amazing ringer for, the late John Ritter) this morning and the way he described it piqued my interest.

Here's some info from CBS:

I think I'll set my TiVO for this.

Tivo offers a sneak preview this week.... it recorded the show for us the other night. Haven't had the chance to watch it, though.

We watched the sneak preview tonight.

We both gave it a double thumbs down.

I was going to say, this is either going to be really good, or really suck.

Annie, what didn't you like about it?

Well, it was trying REAL HARD to be funny. I don't think we laughed once. We were like, "Oh, I feel sorry for these people!" (both the characters and the actors!)

The premise was silly. It's a reunion (for a reason I won't spoil) of kids from a third grade class. Well, how stupid is that? Didn't these people see each other at their high school's 10 year reunion?

Yeah, I tried to like it, but it was just a little too predictable - and really not that funny. And a wee bit of over-acting...
