Just started watching this show On Demand and am really enjoying it.

It's different, and takes chances with the subject and characters, which seems to be a trade mark of Perry in his post-Friends career.

The group is by far some of the best supporting characters in a sitcom in a few years, and each brings a lot to the show.

Anybody else watch it?

I just started watching recently. Mr. K is the funniest one of the supporting cast.

Just got done watching last weeks with the introduction of Piper Perabo.

I love the fact that they bring in solemn and uncomfortable material like when Anne breaks down about her wife not taking her pills and lying to her all that time.

they do do a great job mixing in the comedy while still showing that this is about a support group for tragic loss

I had low expectations, but it's actually pretty good.

I watched the pilot and really liked it. I don't know why I never got into it. Had a good cast and a nice balance of comedy and drama. I'll have to try to find it somewhere and watch the whole season

I think I saw my first episode of it when staying at my aunt's house before the Hurricane. That said, the show was the last thing on my mind at the time, especially mixed with other issues. I'll have to give it another shot.

It's really good and I really like it.

Which obviously means that it will get cancelled pretty soon.


The group is great, and Matthew Perry is pretty toned back and minimally Chandler, if that makes sense. And yes, it does a great job of moxing humor with actual, real emotion.

I liked Mr. Sunshine (although I was apprently one of about a hundred people that ever watched it), and Go On is much better than that show.

I liked Mr. Sunshine too. Go on is definitely better.

If this show doesn't get re-newed and Whitney does, there is no hope for this nation.

Me and the wife watch it. She enjoys it more than i do though. Even though they do a good job with mixing the moods up, it still just a little odd to me.
We also enjoyed Mr. Sunshine

I thought Mr. Sunshine was complete shite, but Go On is one of my new favorite shows.

I love this show. Watched it since the beginning (big fan of Perry)

Mr K is probably my fave char on the show. The "mad rocket scientist"

I've been watching, my favorite new comedy for sure. Great ensemble cast and consistent laughs.

I really hope this one doesn't get cancelled.

I liked it, then during the process of moving in lost it from my dvr list and never decided to start recording it again. I honestly have no idea why.
