Each fall, I try to evaluate the ads for new TV shows and make a decision as to which ones might be worth adding to our already-crowded DVR schedule. Last year, I made the fantastic decision to add The Big Bang Theory and Chuck, both of which have turned out to be really funny shows, worthy of space on my DVR (although Chuck is usually watched on Hulu instead).

This year, I didn’t see very much to get excited about. There was Gary, Unmarried – a sitcom starring Jay Mohr which I’ve not been inspired to watch and Kath & Kim, an NBC remake of an ultra-popular Australian sitcom starring Molly Shannon (who, like Mohr, should definitely have her own show) and Selma Blair. Here’s a clip from Kath & Kim:

Not only is the show disappointing…it’s just completely unfunny. It’s a total waste of some very talented comedic actors on a show that struggles to get even a sniggle of laughter. The funniest part of the show is unfortunately the last 1-2 minutes, called “Wine Time” where Kath and Kim sit on the back porch drinking wine and reading US Weekly and InTouch magazines. But you can’t fill a half-hour sitcom with that. You just can’t.

So I’m sorry to say, Kath & Kim…you’re deleted.
