    Now, I know that it is a sitcom, but still, I can't stand seeing or hearing stupidity. Like I said, this was the beginning of stupidity. This was the first episode where I saw T. Could someone really be that dumb? And as for Kim, she admitted to like a boy on the same intellectual level as her; stupid. I would see this later on in the series. As for Nikki, she was a bit irresponsible with the pet of the man she claimed to be in love with. And why did she accept a job she knew nothing about, and cause an old lady, herself and her daughter a great deal of inconvenience? I did not like this episode, and would see more and more reasons to be annoyed rather than amused. I have said before, the series made me laugh a little, but a lot of it wasn't that funny.moreless
