Jenn (Joanne Spracklen) was fired.  We don't know why -- and we've never seen
her before.  She was only on for 25 seconds and had no lines.  But immediately after
her scene ends, the next words were spoken by actress Jennifer Hasty -- who
plays Jenn's boss.  And then Jenn returns and has one word to say -- "Vulture!".
2nd show today that had someone with a broken spine.

  • The title character is a former marine sergeant who runs an unlicensed, makeshift bar  in the backyard of the San Diego home which she rents.
  • Harshest critic said he didn't laugh once and cringed over the way each character has one primary quality, which he or she telegraphs to us at every chance.  But a more favorable review says it's a "chance to spend time each week in the company of some appealing goofballs."  They generally agree that it's a strong cast, it's similar to "Cheers" -- except the writing is poor. 
  • Her landlord is an actor who I think looks a bit like a younger me, but my sister's don't think so.  I've pointed out that I don't claim he's my twin -- he could just play a younger me if a show called for such a part. 
  • I didn't laugh at all, although there were a few places where I came close.  But I'm not sure how often I actually laughed during "Cheers".  If it manages to stay on, I'll probably watch it.
