(1) Befuddlement. I thought this was supposed to be a sitcom, and yet I didn't laugh once during the entire pilot episode. What's going on here?I'm going to assume HBO is cool enough to keep the show going and give viewers time to get through the stages, but, jeez, what's wrong with people? The brilliance of the show was glaring right at you in the "Well, I got it!" sequence in Episode 1.
2) Revulsion. Puppy poo in her hair? Give me a break! How much degradation can one character take?
3) Anger. Why is everyone so mean to Valerie? I hate that stinkin' Boyd Duzpauliegsuck!
4) Addiction. Note to self, I don't need to see that! Note to self, I don't need to see that! Note to self, I don't need to see that! Note to self, I don't need to see that!
5) Acceptance. I've got a lump in my throat because they scrapped the ''Aunt Sassy'' episode of Room & Bored and that beaver coat shtick was actually kind of funny. I think I might be a little bit hooked.
6) Adulation. I'm a huge fan of The Comeback and I'm not ashamed to say it anymore! Anyone else out there with me? Anyone?
And Paulie G is a great villain. Ooh! He's fun to hate!

I love the Comeback. I'm sorry to hear it's low-rated, but I'm not surprised. People are talking about My Life on the D List now which I forgot to program. Have you seen it?
I tried to watch it, but it made me too uncomfortable. This happens when my empathy comes out for someone in an embarrasing or uncomfortable situation. I can detatch and enjoy violence, but not social embarassment.

I think you mean - Larry David.
Larry Gelbart was a M*A*S*H writer.
I'm with Bruce. There are lot of programs I simply can't watch because I die of embarrassment for the characters. It's still very difficult for me to watch an entire episode of "I Love Lucy." So I can appreciate what "The Comeback" is accomplishing, but I can't watch it.
