    It takes a lot for me to laugh out loud, but I did it quite often during the first season of this show. I especially love Melissa McCarthy's character.

    Pretty funny for a pilot. More Jean Smart! It has a lot of potential.

    I caught it by accident and I actually really want to see the next episode. I think it was great and it has massive potential. Christina Applegate was 100% believable and charming as Samantha, and the idea to me seems pretty original. The writing was very good, never dumbed down, clever, and consistent through out. I haven't cared to see the next episode of anything in a long time. I hope it holds up.… Expand

    This show is hilarious! There's a lot going on so you'll never be bored. It's well put together & if you don't laugh then you have no sense of humor!!

    It's the best new show of the season. I have always been an Applegate fan but she just hits it out of the park.

    I love this show! It's hilarious! Ugly Betty and Samatha Who? are the best shows on TV.

    A very lighthearted comedy. Applegate is spunky and lovable. So much fun to watch!

    Great premise, but unless Samantha life progresses it will get boring very quickly. It's starting to already.

    Getting better every episode, and the comedic timing is flawless.

    I hate sitcoms and comedies normally. But one night I started watching this on ABC.com. And I just laughed my head off. I really enjoy this show and it is the first show like this that I am wanting to watch regularly since Home Improvement.

    One of my favourite comedy tv shows! Although the number of funny jokes are limited each episode, the plot and acting is extremely eye-catching, and makes it very enjoyable to watch!

    Samantha leaps from place to place as if its rapid pace could conceal the bumpy story line or at least suppress the observation that none of this makes much sense.

    The only person with untainted clues as to the person Samantha really was is the doorman to her apartment building, Frank (Tim Russ), and the combination of all these factors creates a premiere that is as pathetic as it is occasionally funny.

    As is, though, the series seeks a tone of whimsy and settles for irritating, leaving Applegate to look perpetually baffled and perhaps longing for the subtlety of "Married ... With Children," without doing much to humanize her character.
