Worst Week

Worst Week. Episode 13. "The Puppy" Sam starts to freak out about the impending birth of his child, and Dick is locked out of the house. Very funny.

The cast is likable and very funny. Each one of the main four is pitch perfect in their roles. Sam is one of my favourite television characters right now. I really respond to his boundless enthusiasm. No matter how much bad luck befalls him, he attacks every event in his life with boundless gusto (and way too much enthusiasm). Which helps keep the (now rather slim) premise of the series alive and in play. Just about. Fact is: after they moved to stand-alone episodes, it's now pretty hard to understand how the title "Worst Week" fits any more. It's just another sit-com about a guy's mis-adventures. I'm not complaining, it's still a lot funnier than most other comedies on TV.
