The only show that is worse than 2 Broke Girls is Whitney.

One of the worse shows on television.
But hey I might be hating it to be cool because it's not possible for someone to have that opinion.

I must be in the minority, but I like it. I think the show tries to hard at times (if you know what I mean), but I do believe there are worse shows.

Do people really watch a show only because someone hot is in it?
That was acceptable in the heydays of shows like Baywatch, but these days we have screencaps, gifs and youtube clips for our oogling needs.

It's a really bad sitcom.
But I dont care, it makes me laugh.
It's laughing at stupid stuff, it isnt intelligent comedy or fancy funny plots. It's just straight up funny puns and dumb sex gags.
Immature, but funny.

It's pretty dreadful, but then I really don't like Whitney Cummings' humor and it's especially poor for sitcom writing. The characters don't feel like actual characters so much as lazy stereotypes or soulless punchline delivery vehicles.
I really did try to give this show a chance since I like a few of the actors involved, like Dennings, Morris, and Behrs. And it isn't a terrible concept. But the writing is godawful and unfunny.

What makes it so jarringly horrendous is that it's airing in what I would say is as close to a golden age of comedy on television as we will ever see. And the humor in this show is soooo lazy, contrived and deliberately offensive attached to the pre-recorded laugh track.
Plus, it's doing phenomenally well in the ratings because it's a CBS sitcom compared to the aforementioned sitcoms that are either getting canceled or on the chopping block due to their low ratings.

Aside from 'Happy Endings,' I cant think of a sitcom even close to the chopping block that I'd be sad to see go, where as this silliness I'd miss

If Kat Dennings is broke, I got a few things I'll pay her to do.

I will be disappointed when that gets cancelled, probably after this season as it has already been moved to the purgatory that is Friday nights.

This Aside from 'Happy Endings,' I cant think of a sitcom even close to the chopping block that I'd be sad to see go, where as this silliness I'd miss I really like Happy Endings, I only started watching and heard about it a month or two back. Its quirky, has very decent writing (especially when you compare it to 2BG, Whitney and others), the actors are good, that's all I ask for really. I hope to start watching more and more of it in the next weeks.

I've seen the Kat Dennings nude pics. So I don't need to watch the show. Seriously though I find the show pretty awful. And a nice face of cute boobs isn't enough to get me to watch a bad show.

I'm clearly in the minority on this board but I love the show. Sure it's stupid but it makes me laugh.

I"ll second "Happy Endings" as a good show. And I like that it's a Chicago show that doesn't have to rely on numerous Pizza and Hot Dog jokes as must shows set in Chicago seem to.

Even my wife commented on how nice her boobs were when the Super Bowl promo was on.
As far as the show itself goes, however, I have yet to be remotely impressed. I actually sat and watched an entire episode without laughing once. No sitcom (outside of MASH, of course) should ever have that happen.

I watched it once at the gym, and I didn't think the plot was much, but I thought the friendship between the principles was pretty charming. The show could definitely use better writing, though.

I really don't get the obsession that people have with Kat Denning's juice jugs
Nice looking boobs can never save a show this bad.

The Super Bowl promo is the most entertainment I've ever gotten out of the show FWIW.
