10 New Shows That Already Deserve To Get Cancelled
2. Alex, Inc
Look, no one is saying that career resurgences can't happen, OK? But normally for a comedic actor, that means getting cast in a drama that showcases your abilities and reminds everyone that you a.) exist and b.) can do a bunch of different stuff.
In the case of Zach Braff, a long disappearance from the front lines of Hollywood followed by a return to exactly the sort of thing he's always done may not end up paying dividends.
In Alex, Inc, he plays a well-intentioned husband/father who makes the executive decision to quit his comfortable, well-paying job to start his own podcast company, as though it's 2010 or something.
Good for him, he's following his dreams, but come on. Who does this guy think he is? But perhaps worse than all of this is that there is a trailer floating around on the internet for this show that lasts nearly three minutes without one single amusing moment. You have to do better than that, Zach Braff and company. You just have to.
