Do you like listening to laugh tracks make fun of millennials? If so this show is for you.
Joel McHale (Community) spent the most of his life hiking and works for a adventure magazine writing articles about his adventures. This magazine is staffed by a group of diverse yet stereotypical millennials. He now supervises them.
I like Joel McHale, he was great in Community and is why I watched the pilot. His character seems the exact same, but more outdoorsy.
Overall the episode uses every cheap and easy millennial joke possible. Again and again. It is to millennials what big bang theory is to nerds. The jokes did not all catch, the bar scenes seem tacked on, and the pilot seems like the lowest amount of work required to get by, which is fitting as many people think of millennials that way.
However, CBS is good at comedies. While Big Bang and HIMYM were not the most clever shows, they were consistently funny and loved. So this could improve.
I will give the show one more episode. If you have nothing else to watch, or like to laugh at a machine laughing at millennials, give it a try. But as of now it is not a need to watch.
