Cliched

Interesting premise. Sharp caricatures. Effective, short episodes. Representative cross-section of urban stereotypes. Smart set. Snappy dialogues. Witty punchlines. Much laughter. Who’s going to win? Intermission already? Flagging interest. Car icatures overextended. Situations degenerate. “I knew that would happen next.” Cliches abound. Strident Bush bashing. Polite titters. Predictable anti-climax. Cliched epilogue. Did I use the word cliche already? Good idea. Disappointing execution. So Indian.
