Synopsis

Committed is a television sitcom that aired on NBC as a midseason replacement from January 4 to March 15, 2005. Although originally broadcast twice a week the series eventually settled in a regular timeslot on Tuesdays at 9:30PM EST after Scrubs. The show starred Josh Cooke and Jennifer Finnigan and costarred Darius McCrary, Tammy Lynn Michaels and Tom Poston. Cooke and Finnigan played two single and extremely eccentric New Yorkers who are subject to constant interference when they begin dating from their equally eccentric friends and Finnigan's roommate, known only as "Dying Clown" or "Clown" who was actually a clown, played by Tom Poston. The show ran for 13 episodes. Clips and fan-generated montages can still be found online, but no official DVDs have been produced.

Reviews

thedoctor98 It's like the writers went looking for the worst, most obvious "jokes". Part of me thinks they're going for the "it's so bad it's good" angle, but then the laugh-track seems to indicate that it's so bad, it's bad. Bad acting, bad writing, bad directing ... it's overwhelmingly bad. Why inflict this upon the world? I don't know. Tom Poston appears, he was average in the Bob Newhart show, and yet suspiciously he comes up in other shows. Not sure why, he's not funny or talented. This is not politically incorrect, but it's humorously incorrect, too. Possibly an 8 year old wrote it. Doesn't explain why the actors wanted to be in this. They're attractive, there's no doubt about it, but they're just untalented. There's so little talent in this, I couldn't understand it. Don't watch this and then the movie "Airplane" (/ "Flying High") ... you'll realise just how bad television has become. Sad, but true.
geishagrlie I mean, really, this show is new and cute. And, yes, I love Arrested Development, and the weird shows and the cynical ones but, this show is new and tries to do something different. Nate is hysterical, as is Tess and the clown is great!!! I admit that I thought it might be weird but, he is so funny that you forget that it is odd. And Marni is adorable! She is fresh and sweet, and although it seems contrived-one must remember that people like that look that contrived in real life. I think Jennifer Finnigan is doing an amazing job and I hope that the show stays on the air and gains great success! I truly think that those people that don't think it's funny are entitled to their opinion but, why believe that everything that you think is the end all and be all of funny? I don't like feeling like an idiot because of what I think is funny!
scarletminded Poor Scrubs. I keep missing the show on Tuesdays. I kept hoping that once Joey started playing on Thursday, Scrubs would be in the 8:30 spot, but no.This show is. I would rather watch Scrubs on Thursday, but this is pleasant. I wouldn't mind seeing this and Scrubs on Tuesday in the same hour.Clown is a funny character...does he live in the closet? The messed up apartment was interesting, as was the Muppets phone.I can't say it was bad. Doesn't have the wit of Scrubs nor the mainstay value of Joey, but it could find its own niche attached to one of the shows. I would like that, because like I have said before, I don't stop to watch a 30 min show, so Scrubs has been skipped over by me and I shouldn't skip it, it is a good show.Oh, yeah. Committed is good too.
AndreaPomMom Since "Friends" ended, I have been looking for a new fun comedy, and I've finally found it! "Committed" is hilarious and quirky. You won't be disappointed. I hope it stays for the long haul. People who can relate to phobias, anxiety,and/or OCD will especially like this comedy because the male lead role (Nate) struggles with the same. Check this sitcom out and see what you think for yourself :) Since "Friends" ended, I have been looking for a new fun comedy, and I've finally found it! "Committed" is hilarious and quirky.
