Did this HBO show come and go?

Former “Friends” star Lisa Kudrow returns to TV on June 5 in the HBO series, “Comeback,” playing a former TV star who is reduced to being in a reality series featuring her home life, hoping that it will secure a part in a new TV sitcom. She succeeds in getting the sitcom, but her role is much smaller than she was led to believe.

Kudrow is the co-writer of “Comeback” and one of her co-stars is Lisa Silverman, the sister of comedian Sarah Silverman.

Do you actually have male genitalia or is this all a gimmick?

That's LAURA, actually. She's probably best known as the voice of a character named "Laura" on "Dr. Katz".

I JUST finished watching the second episode using my cable system's "on demand" thing-deal. Do you guys have a tendency to judge shows (or movies or music or chicks or whatever) more harshly when they're ALMOST good than when they're flat out awful? Is this just me? I kinda feel like there aren't enough hours in the day to bother getting worked up about the show "Yes, Dear". But if a show seems to have the potential to be something GREAT and it just isn't working, I get pissed.

I don't know. MAYBE I'll get turned around on this show. I doubt it, but I'm not completely over the fence yet. I'm gonna give it ONE more chance to impress the fuck out of me.

I wonder how far away we are from the final nail in the coffin of "faux variété". (Am I spelling that wrong or using it wrong or something? I just Googled "faux variété" to make sure I was spelling it right and putting the little weird marks in all the right places. NO fucking results! I know I spelled "faux" right. And I know I spelled "variété" right, and I also tried the other acceptable variations on those little weird marks, including EXcluding all of them. So, what the fuck? I KNOW I didn't make the term up!)

Sorry, I pasted directly from the article.

I apologize* to the entire Silverman family.
