Review of Odd Mom Out

Odd Mom Out (2015–2017)
Refreshing new comedy.
15 June 2015
Well, that's a nice surprise. I only saw the pilot but this seems like a good comedy. Lots of pluses not any actual minus.

First of all, I prefer comedies that lack the awful fake laugh track (just wrote a review for another new comedy that has it). Odd Mom Out hasn't got one so that's something I endorse.

It's about the lives of some ultra-wealthy wives and moms, who live in Upper East Side New York. What they have in money they lack in other areas, so the series presents them more like caricatures. You know lacquered socialites, that only know about fashion and nose-jobs and charities. Women who think that are better because of their ...husbands wealth. It sets up nicely so far with the introduction of another female character who is actually an ER doctor, to give some contrast.

The humor seems good. Witty and refreshing and satirical. And I'm starting to give credit to the direction too.

Jill Kargman plays a version of herself as I'm reading. She is OK to her role, so far.

Overall: Seems good. I'll keep watching.
