This seems like a continuation of Two and a Half Men

here's a good way to sum it up:

quote:

"Anger Management" is more like a "raunchy CBS comedy" than it is akin to FX's other shows, "which is to say that it's sometimes broadly funny and sometimes broadly bad."

The Atlantic was left disappointed that "Anger Management" even made it onto FX in the first place, noting the stark contrast between the elevated comedy and creativity of "Anger Management's" time slot neighbor, "Louie," and Sheen's show.

"There's something particularly sad about seeing FX put so much energy into trying to sell the American viewing public a bland, ugly sitcom that would have been rejected by even its most milquetoast competitors, while Louis C.K. is making personally and artistically transformative television on a much lower budget, one time slot over."

I could see that just from the commercial with Selma Blair. It's definitely beneath FX as their comedies go.

Somebody should tell FX that they missed America's fascination with Charlie Sheen by about 15 months.

Maybe it'll be brought to their attention next month when they debut their two new shows centered around the Royal Wedding and the death of Bin Laden!
