"Broke" Has Been Cancelled

Love my grandkids — Wed, 06 May 2020 18:01:02 GMT

No surprise! I watched the trailers and they stunk. I don't know anyone who has actually watched this.

Wonder who Pauley P. will blame? She can't blame Mark Harmon for this LOL! Just proves she can't act! All the reviews I read said it was terrible.

I started to watch the first episode, but after a few minutes, turned it off, and took it off my DVR recording schedule.

You know a show is stinko when it can't even draw viewers away from stale reruns.

I watched the first episode and thought it was bad. Thought I would give it another shot and started watching the 2nd episode and couldn't watch the whole show. (I only tried a second time to watch as I did not really like the first episode of Cheers but ended up loving it.) But Broke is too predictable, and not funny to me.

I don't really watch Mom anymore as it seemed like every episode, the daughter was jumping in bed with a different guy. I'm not a prude, but thought that was a little excessive to try to get some laughs but that is JMO

I watched it for 5 minutes & changed the channel. It was awfull.

I hope a good show turns up for Paulie Perrett though, I really liked her on NCIS, but I like her replacement now that I’ve gotten used to her.

This one got by me - Sound like a good thing! Somebody here said it was similar to "Indebted."

I can stomach Broke more than I can Indebted and I absolutely LOVE Steven Weber. I watched 2 episodes and deleted it from the DVR list. Broke isn't one of my favorites, but it's still on the DVR list. I think Pauly tries to overact with a comedy show and I loved her on NCIS. I just don't think comedy is her thing. I do like the Luis character though. He's kind of funny.

OMG, Luis! I really liked him better than any other of the characters. He was the 'friend', right? He was so cute and funny.

Oh yeah, butler. Thanks for the reminder. My memory is failing me terribly these days.

I'm still watching, and love Luis. There is a lot of subtle humor in it. I do actually like it.

If you pay attention to the opening credits, Pauley is listed second, behind the actor who plays Javier (who is also one of the creator/producers).

Carol's second Act wasn't renewed either.

I found the writing to be weak on this show. Hoping Ms Heaton will be offered another outlet for her talents.

I liked Carole's Second Act and I wonder if the cancellation might have had something to do with the accusations brought against her husband, who I think was a writer on the show?

That's funny because I did exactly the same thing. I really liked her in NCIS but this was ridiculous. She's not a comedian.

At first I didn't like this show, but I really started to enjoy it! I like Patricia Heaton and think she is great in all her roles! I miss The Middle! Now, that was a funny show and the whole cast was great.

I did not think Pauley was good at all. I used to like her in NCIS. And that hair ---- yuck -- it looked greasy, stringy and dirty!

The assistant and other supporting characters were good, but the story lines were pathetic.

Loved her on NCIS so wanted to like this. She was the least funny person on the show......seemed like Abby had quit her job and taken up drinking or something and everything went downhill from there. The other people were funny for the first two episodes but after number three it got removed from the playlist.

I was tired of her in NCIS. She's most of the reason I quit watching it.

In this new show (I watched the beginning of the first episode, caught a bit tonight on mute), she just looked dirty, sloppy.

I liked Carole's Second Act. Don't know anything about accusations.

I wonder if The Unicorn is coming back.
