I used to like this show a lot, but then it just got too "political" for me.
I have the last 6 or 7 episodes "DVR'd", (dating back to the episode right before Trump got elected).
Don't know if I'll ever watch them, though.

have only ever seen previews and it seems to be little more than a mouthpiece for a certain agenda

remember apolitical shows that were funny?
remember when a bunch of folks with different opinions could go to dinner together and agree to live and let live?

heck, now i have lifelong friends "unfriending" me on facebooks even though i almost never even log in, let alone get into arguments
texted one such friend a song i thought he would like last week and got no reply
sad

Same here as jespear. Used to like it. Not so much anymore. Modern Family kinda going the same way for me too. The gay couple is funny. But I don't care for the episodes where the focus is gay. And Thursday used to be a great tv night for me. I still think the Goldbergs and Speechless are two of the funniest sitcoms on today.

How do you know its a mouthpeice for an agenda without watching it. Is that like passing it to see whats in it? I say this because I think tailgator likes the show.

a few of the previews, especially around election time, were telling enough (assuming the show wasnt 180 degrees opposite the previews, which i guess is a possibility)

I've not seen it either so have no room to speak. I just remember reading something tail wrote that seemd to say other than the after election trump episode he didn't appear to be put off by the politics of it.... I dunno and I don't want to pull my deke out and put words in his mouf.

let me be more clear, by "a few of the previews" i mean THE preview i saw at election time
if there were more then i probably didnt see them as tv is not really my thing

as to tail,
his mouth is pretty full already but maybe you could squeeze in

Yeah, I work nights so I don't watch a lot of network TV.......I mostly watch reruns, movies, and sports
I know,I could record shows to watch, but I never do. Anxious
