Notes From the Underbelly

Notes From the Underbelly premiered last night on abc (check it out here and read a CNN review here). i was looking forward to it, as it looked funny from the previews - i mean it actually looked funny, not the typically vacuous new sitcom. plus, it's about pregnancy. sounds like a good match right now. let me start off this review, and end it, by telling you that this show is spot on. aside from the fact that we're not rolling in $ in La Jolla, CA, it seemed that this show was mirroring our own pregnancy experience. the writers must have recently been pregnant, b/c they remember everything - from the actual 'stress' of conception, to the assortment of symptoms such as enlarged boobs, mood swings, the nesting instincts, and the need to upgrade your car - and they fit all of it in a storyline that was riotous. cindy and i were laughing out loud for nearly the entire episode - it was as if it was written for us.

the show premiered last night, but is moving to wednesdays 8:30 EST. if you don't find it funny, then wait until you get pregnant and watch it again.
