Emeril First Impressions.

I'm 9 minutes into the pilot, and wow. WOW. Is it ever awful. The whole thing is just dated pop-culture references with no punchline, food-related puns, and stupid catchphrases that will never catch on. Emeril himself is surprisingly not bad. His wife is though. Seriously, she is so boring and monotonous. Not to mention the mood swings. Seriously, it goes from comedy, to sappy, to comedy. In the first nine minutes. This is going to hurt more than I thought.
