Matthew seemed too eager and excited to spit out each and every line in a loud, excited fashion... With no pauses or normal intonation.... Just didn't seem natural. I get it is a sitcom, but the characters have to t least be believable as people. There just wasn't conversation, just one liners. Very forced and fast paced. In real life, people respond after hearing and processing what someone said. The actors seemed like amateurs, just spewing their lines as fast as the another completes one. I am hopeful as a Matthew Perry fan, but he needs to "be" the character and really believe he talking to the other characters. I was very distracted by the poor acting and writing that I missed an overall story line. The writings need to vamp up the comedy to a more global level and not just entertain wit a bunch of over-acted one liners. Think deeper, and you can create great humor.
