Welcome to the Captain (CBS)
Premiered February 4 at 8:30pm
Not only does this show have one of the worst titles in recent television history, but its plot is also dismal. It almost seems less worth it than 2006's extremely short-lived FOX sitcom "Happy Hour". This show has a thin premise and a terrible lead. Comedy veterans Jeffrey Tambor and Raquel Welch are not even incorporated in the plot; they just pop up and deliver a one-liner in random scenes. Chris Klein keeps trying to look alive, and does not do a very good job of it. There is so little to even comment on here, and I am bored already.
How will it work as a series? Guy likes girl, girl has boyfriend, guy talks to uninteresting blabbermouths while trying to get girl. How long can that possibly last?
How long will it last? Nestled between CBS's other Monday night high-rated comedies, this show could go the route of "Rules of Engagement", but with the strike close to an end, I doubt that anyone will want to watch this.
Pilot grade: F
