Here are some new TV shows that are not worth your time

There were two shows this summer I’d looked forward to and sadly both of them have fallen flat. The TV reboot of Wet Hot American Summer was a total joke (made it through two episodes out of eight), while NBC’s Mr. Robinson, which airs its next two episodes tonight, I’ve also decided to eschew. You know it’s bad when they start getting rid of episodes two at a time.

Mr. Robinson stars Craig “Hot Tub Time Machine” Robinson in the title role, and is presented by several Frasier alumni. Sounds promising, right? The premise of the show–“professional” musician who moonlights as a substitute teacher–had me intrigued, of course, because, well, that’s my life. I’m sorry to say that it just didn’t come together for me, perhaps because I know just a little bit too much about those subjects.

Thanks, bad TV shows, for giving me so much more free time this summer to do something other than watch TV.
