Previewing Sullivan and Son 2.x


Sullivan and Son is back for a second round

TBS has hit its stride with its old school sitcom that put the situations in comedy. Sure they are not going to win any awards or critical acclaim, but you will laugh a couple times each episode. Men At Work just wrapped its second season and now TBS’s other traditional sitcom Sullivan and Son is back for a second round. And little has changed from the first season.

For those that like looking at episode titles, do not let the title of the second season premiere fool you, The Pilot, One More Time is an all new episode, it is not even a reboot of the show, in fact all the characters are the same and in the same state of arrested development where we left them. We finally do get to meet Susan’s husband who shows up in the form of Community’s Ken Jeong who get inspired by Steve job change from high stress.

Later in the season, Steve, Melanie, and Owen make a pact to be more accepting of potential significant others after spending one too many nights alone in the bad, and needless to say the guy and girls they end up with have some pretty huge character flaws. But that does not stop Owen from fighting with Ahmed for the affections of a hippie chick in a later episode. And since the show airs int between episodes of The Big Bang Theory, it is only apropos that one of the nerds from the show pops up and Kunal Nayyar will do just that. Nayyar will play a character that considers himself the ultimate ladies man later this season. While attending the bar's first-ever "Ladies Night," he tries to hit on multiple women using different personalities.

Sullivan and Son airs Thursdays at 100 on TBS. You can also download Sullivan & Son on iTunes.
