Back To You a classic? Not likely. Looks to be another fumbled first season from showrunner Chris Lloyd and (insert other jurrasic sitcom writer here). This project was a classic case of star fucking from the beginning. Good riddance.

Any news on CBS considering Back to You?

I think ‘Back To You’ is hilarious. It should not be canceled. Only worthwhile sitcom on right now - I hope another network does pick it up.

I’M GLAD KELSEY AND PATRICIA GOT THEIR CRAPPY LITTLE SHOW CANCELLED. I MEAN, IT’S ABOUT TWO SQUABBLING NEWSCASTERS WHO HAD A KID TOGETHER YEARS AGO WITHOUT HIM KNOWING AND YET THEY NEVER BOTHERED TO EVEN MILK THAT IDEA? OY!

I frickin’ LOVE that Hurwitz named his production co. Tantamount!

I’ll take a “dated” sitcom any time over the trash normally found on Fox. With the exception of CBS, the networks are not programming for the “next generation”. Big oversight - we are the ones with money to spend, and we are the ones who will actually sit down and watch television on television. Which network is going to figure out that baby-boomers WILL watch quality shows? Especially if they pick a day and timeslot and LEAVE IT ALONE to develop an audience.

“Some good people on it for sure but time for the next generation to come in…”

If by the next generation you mean Ashton Kutcher then I’d be better watching the trash can.

Back to You deserves a second season and hope it gets it. Best new show on TV with two terrific comedic stars.

Back to You should be picked up by TV Land. As it feels like a show from another era. Dated that is, not classic.

Come on other networks, pick up Back To You. So much has been invested in it already, it WILL have Emmy nominations, and all of your development work has been done for you. Not to mention the marketing .

WIN/WIN !!!!!

CBS, NBC, and/or ABC.

In the big picture, it’s a small price to pay.

Great to see Mitch get another shot with Fox. I doubt though it will be as popular as the shows headed by the Chief Manatee. But it will be better though.

I’m assuming Tantamount is Mitch’s production company. That was the name of the Hollywood studio that Maeby worked in on ARD. Good to see Mitch still doing the clever in-jokes.
