Unhitched: Pilot
By fred | March 3, 2008
(S01E01) So as announced last night, this Sunday on Fox premiered a new sitcom produced by no other than the Farrelly Brothers (There’s Something About Mary), who also directed this episode. And when I talked about it last night, I had only seen a couple of promo clips released by Fox, trying to make us want to watch the show. Sadly, though, those were absolutely horrible and unfunny. Which, for a sitcom, is like the worst thing possible ever.
Yet I went into this one with an open mind, ready and willing to enjoy it, should it be any good. I was hoping that maybe it was just that a bunch of morons over at Fox decided to select a few clips from when the show is not working, when it’s anything but funny, and to use such moments as promo clips because, well, they’re morons. This sounds like a very improbable scenario, it really does, and after watching the episode I think that I can say it : Fox people are morons.

(S01E02) Before this new Fox comedy from the Farrelly Brothers came to our screens, and based only a a couple of promo clips, I wasn’t too optimistic about this one. But last week I did watched the sitcom, hoping to get surprised, and I was. I was actually surprised because the episode wasn’t as bad as I feared, in fact it even made me laugh a few times and I thought it had potential to become a pretty funny show.
(S01E03) So far I’ve had mixed feelings about this new sitcom. Quite a few things I didn’t like so much, but others had me rolling on the floor ! So there’s some pretty good stuff in there, and there’s room for improvement. This is already a much better thing that can be said about other new sitcoms, yes I’m thinking of The Return Of Jezebel James for instance, which had not one thing funny in it so you have to wonder, can it really improve with time - and will it ever have time, especially on Fox.
(S01E04) We have been having to face with a lot of new sitcoms this season, a lot of very awful and unfunny ones at that. Turns out that making people laugh for about 20 minutes isn’t is easy a task as it looks. And with this new show, as I said yesterday before watching this week’s episodes, I said that - unlike others - this show was actually funny, maybe not always but it had its moments, and it had potential.
(S01E05) Another episode in, and I stand by 
(S01E06) Last night was only the sixth episode of new sitcom Unhitched, but with the strike and all, it was already the season finale. For sure that was a really brief season, and sadly it never did do so well so it could very well turn out to be a series finale as well. No official word yet from Fox on whether the show has been canceled or renewed, but the odds are more for the former sadly.
