NFT: NBC's Trial & Error (Season 1 Finale Tonight)

with good performances across the board. I also enjoy them burning two episodes per week, so I don't have to invest too much time into it.

Thank goodness someone has finally given a voice to those with facial amnesia.

really, really funny. Love me some judge Horsedich (the N is silent)

and the Poor Man's Aubrey Plaza isnt doing much. But every other component has been really good.

I actually didn't get the Aubrey Plaza vibe, but I can see that a little. And I'm a big fan of the lead, especially knowing that he played Jan's assistant Hunter on the Office.

combined with some off the wall physical humor. Very entertaining, wish there were more episodes this season.

If they do continue with a different trial, I'm going to miss Lithgow's character, he's a riot.

'Boy am I glad she's not alive to see this'

I'm hopeful they'll keep Lithgow around, but we'll see what happens after tonight's episodes!

show if friggin hilarious

Starts at 10pm EST instead of its normal 9pm.

a lot and I agree that it has a Parks and Rec feel to it.

My only issue with it is that Dwayne Reed and Sherri Sheppard's characters are just so absurd that I'm not sure the show can survive multiple seasons without them being fleshed out better. That said, both of them make me laugh. The same can be said for Lithgow, a total pro whose character is a bit too far-fetched.

The scene last week where Sheppard repeats back in the courtroom all of the expletives killed me.

Haha, well yeah, I think they're supposed to be a bit over the top much like many of the Parks & Rec and Office characters.

That scene had me in tears

for characters to be absurd, but I think the characters here are turning stupidity up to an 11.

It's worth noting that the first seasons of both The Office and Parks and Rec had their issues as well (particularly Parks and Rec) so I will give them plenty of rope to figure it out.

I would imagine people from the deep South find it tremendously offensive.

Hah, no more offensive than a Northeasterner would, I'd hope

I could watch the Sherri Sheperd character for years. She kills me. She and Lithgow are stealing every scene.

the show nails a joke for Dwayne Reed with a big payoff.

But, yeah, Sheppard has been consistently great.
