    It's neither wildly innovative nor sidesplittingly funny, but it has a warm, cozy group vibe and no flagrant casting mishaps.

    "Four Kings" is better than a lot of similar sitcoms, but it's not different enough to stand out in what NBC hopes will be a renaissance of must-see television.

    What can I tell you about "Four Kings" that you won't already know? It premieres tonight at 8:30 on NBC. By 8:46, or thereabouts, you will understand everything.

    I just love it they make a very fun group of friends, they complement each other very well.

    Not the best, or even close to it. But better than some of the stinkers that the networks have foisted off on us lately. Part of the problem with any new situation comedy is that for the first episode or two you're too busy establishing the situation to develop much comedy. Kohan and Mutchnick are capable of better than this, however, so I doubt I'll be watching this regularly -- but I might tune in occasionally.… Expand

    I can't find any reason to watch this show. I didn't think it was funny at all.
