JENNIFER FALLS
June 4, 2014  | By David Bianculli

TV Land, 10:30 p.m. ET

 

SERIES PREMIERE: The newest original sitcom by TV Land is a departure of sorts for the network. Instead of a standard, vintage-style multi-camera sitcom performed before an audience, Jennifer Falls is a single-camera comedy, like, say, My Name Is Earl. And that’s an intentional name drop, because the star of Jennifer Falls, playing a formerly successful career woman who moves back in with her mother when hard times hit, is Earl star Jaime Pressly. Another Earl veteran, Ethan Suplee, plays her brother, who hires her to work as a waitress at his sports bar – and their mom is played by one of the funniest TV moms in recent history, Jessica Walter of Arrested Development. Given all that pedigree, Jennifer Falls certainly is worth a peek.
