But got damn Vanessa Hudgens is fine.

I'm watching near enough anything comic book related on TV right now but had to drop Powerless mid-episode 2. I liked the cast but it just wasn't funny. The jokes didn't have punchlines; there was no wit. It was all reactional humor like facial expressions and "Uhhh, okay..." type dialogue.

I almost always give something a whole season before dropping it and this might be the first time I stopped in the middle of an episode. I hope it got better and out of curiosity (and love for Alan Tudyk) I might check it out again in the future but yikes.

It was supposed to be about an insurance company but they changed it at the last minute

That idea was so much better and had so much more potential

It does seem to get better after the second episode.
