I only mildly enjoyed the original. I didn’t find it as instantly hateable
as most here, but did find it mildly repulsive. As Tom says, some fraction
of the badness is they are still working it out. Tomlinson, who I find
pretty likable outside of this, comes across as stiff and her voice is
grating. I think there is a chance she finds her register and stride and
reaches the mildly enjoyable level. As all have said, there is no chance of
that if they keep it as long as this. Also, I think Tomlinson needs to
develop a little more of an edge with the panelists so she can tease them a
little for clunker jokes. Last thought: give her a screen in her eye line
so she is not constantly looking over her shoulder and away from the
camera/viewer.

If the show gets better someone please post an advisory here. I doubt I
will go out of my way to watch it again without some encouragement.
