Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

cfitzhue The series was canceled after airing just two episodes. And rightly so. It was badly cast. Series creator David Hornsby cast himself in the lead, the character came across as a gay guy instead of a gentleman...not the same thing.When I think of gentlemen I get images of "Mr. French" from "Family Affair" or Michael Caine's "Alfred" in "Batman" which stands to reason because Butlers are (or were) referred to as "A gentleman's gentleman".David Hornsby came across as a gay guy who had excellent taste in everything but his own wardrobe.Kevin Dillon proves once again that he is only capable of minor supporting roles. This time he bit off more than he could chew. Sorry "Drama".

djkunai I couldn't find anything else on at 8:30 on a Thursday, besides Parks and Rec. I'm not even going to publish this review until the episode is over.This show is bad. It's as if it's written by the people who brought you Hannah Montana or any other completely forgettable Disney Channel or Nickelodeon series. I'm not even sure of the plot line.The deliveries of punchlines are terrible. The punchlines are bad to begin with, but then they're delivered awkwardly and it just makes a mess of the comedy.The characters are forced. They're not convincing. They spew line after line of dialogue without any heart or sense of true rapport. I don't know why these people are friends. They are annoying, and more one dimensional than a point, which this show doesn't have. What's the point? Who am I supposed to care for? Why doesn't the studio audience leave mid-performance?This is a filler show. Destined to be canceled before the end of the season after somehow being green-lit. Kill it. Kill it now. NBC canceled Outsourced for this garbage.The episode just ended. With a bit of slapstick that was expected and unconvincing.Bad.

africanchief23 So here comes a new series called "How to be Gentleman." The title might be slightly misleading considering we are being shown how NOT to be a gentleman so far. David Hornsby does not do much to the show for me and kind of reminds me of Neil Patrick Harris of which I'm not a big fan of. His lines are corny and his comedy is based mainly on gimmicks. I didn't feel much need to laugh at anything he said. Kevin Dillan on the other hand is someone you either hate or love, and I absolutely love his humor and way of acting. If you're a fan of entourage its takes some time to get your head around and get used to him being in a different show. Although his role in entourage is legendary, it seems perhaps he could do wonders for this show as well. If it wasn't for him i wouldn't be looking forward to the next episode but now I am eager to see more of him and whether or not he can maintain my interest for this show. The show definitely has potential.

fjv56 I will definitely be following future episodes and I would look forward to it, even if it wasn't following Big Bang Theory. I think it is a fresh idea for a comedy. The only reason I didn't rate it as a 10 is that I have a good feeling the writing on this platform will continue to be funnier as the show continues. That is not to take away from this pilots content. Standing on it's own, I would give it a 10 for the idea and opening story line with enough clever writing and comedy to make it feel as though the half hour flew by. The casting of the two male lead characters is perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to say, that most people are likely to know someone similar to David Hornsby and Kevin Dillon and using them to bring together two, completely opposite personalities, was well achieved. David is new to me and I enjoyed his performance, however using Kevin's established character is a good fit for this show. Great job CBS! "How To Be A Gentleman" has my vote. Keep it coming. Thank you.
