[Bill Lawrence] scores again here, with an instantly appealing ensemble, from Astin's "soulless upstairs tool" to Rory Scovel as the downstairs dude from "a very competitive community college.
We like the people and the jokes are funny. We know there’s something vulnerable and even poignant behind that barrage of one-liners.

This is my new favorite program and i don't say that easy. I just love the whole concept and the actors blended together its a perfect match. usually there is someone you just don't like in a series but i cant fine one in this one. The relationship between Brody and Jennifer is just so hot and by that i mean Jennifer is so hot my computer almost burn up! JK. but the relation ship between those two are just amazing, how they sing and get this like sexual chemistry kinda and just all in all are just an epic combination. but also the relationship between all the other characters how they interact whit each other is just something you don't really get all the time in all tv-shows. So to sum it up even tho i am a scumbag that watches the show free on the internet bc i live in Norway where the show hasn't aired on television yet. I believe this show is one of the best i have ever seen.

SEASON 1
Best sitcom TBS has put out, it has just enough dark humor not to push any boundaries and just make you laugh, unlike Sullivan & Son. The writers make the usually annoying Romeo and Juliet-style romance work well, and Rory Scovel plays an interesting antagonist "Harvard," basically an odd, sarcastic, hilariously unsuccessful version of Tybalt. Sitcoms are having it rough these days, so adding a guaranteed-funny veteran actor like John C. McGinley was a wise move.

SEASON 1
When the jokes are hit and miss, McGinley and Scovel can easily salvage them. While the chemistry between Astin and Heelan isn't really palpable, both characters grow on you after a couple of episodes and everybody else in the cast also manages to elevate the material whenever it falters.
Ground Floor doesn’t make much of an impression initially. But stick with it for three or four episodes and it grows on you.
[Ground Floor] yields an occasional chuckle; it’s just more of a slacker than an overachiever.
One thing that might improve this office comedy is a few pink slips--upstairs, downstairs and off-camera.
The new worst show of the fall season.
Haven't laughed this much during a sitcom since the Friends days. Glad to see Bill Lawrence is at it again. Great cast and clever writing set this apart from the rest of the pack. Keep up the good "work".

SEASON 1
It's a show from Bill Lawrence and co-stars John C. McGinley so it's no surprise that the show is pretty damn funny. (Scrubs was amazing). Not many sitcoms can be this good this early on. The chemistry between the stars is pitch perfect(ha), the writing is sharp as a whip, and its just so much fun to watch. HATE the laugh track but its not as synthetic sounding as with most other programs. This. Is. The. One. To. Watch. Very funny

SEASON 1
Good with the possibility of becoming very good or excellent. I've seen the first two episodes so far. The inter-character relationships have been well-developed. Mr. McGinley is in a role that seems tailor-made for him.
The show has a hint of IT Crowd in it, but I don't consider that to be a bad thing.
I would have given the show a solid 7 in my rating if it were not for that horribly intrusive laugh track. This show is well-written and well-acted. A live audience would be a big benefit over that awful laugh track.
