    TV Land continues its foray into original scripted programming with The Exes, the network's best sitcom effort since "Hot in Cleveland."

    At the very least, it maintains TV Land's brand as the comfort food of television.

    The exes is one of the most enjoyable TV shows on. We where just flipping through channels when we stopped on TVLand. The show was actually funny and fun to watch. We now make sure we set the TV timer and watch every Wednesday. Great job TVland!… Expand

    I've only seen episode 1 but ugh. It's horribly paced and poorly written. What's worse, the jokes just aren't that funny. The only saving grace is the first rate cast. Here's hoping it finds it's groove soon.… Expand
