“Work it” misses mark

Published: January 18, 2012

Work it, ABC’s newest sitcom that debuted on Jan. 3, will be canceled. Mark my words.

It’s about two guys who are unemployed, and the only jobs they can find are at a pharmaceutical company where they are only hiring women.

Guess what happens next? Ding ding ding! Yep, the whole show is based off of how these fully grown men land jobs by dressing up like women. Something tells me I may have seen this somewhere before, maybe around one million times. And there’s not even a cool twist to the show. It must have seemed like a fresh idea to the writers at some point, but they were way off.

Maybe I could get passed the whole basis of the show if the episodes were at least funny. But no. The acting is horrible and the canned laughter in the background is funnier than 90 percent of the jokes in the show. If you can call them jokes. ABC definitely missed the mark on this one.
