CALL ME KAT is a direct steal from the popular British version called MIRANDA staring Miranda Hart. I loved MIRANDA. I watched the entire series several times. The cast and their craziness always made me laugh out loud. Not so for CALL ME KAT.
I have to say I adore Mayim Bialik. She has a smile that could light up any ordinary day, but I feel as though she and the entire cast are pushing and forcing their lines too much. They have not found their footing. MIRANDA was easy to watch and enjoy. It took no effort.
CALL ME KAT is copying every comedic gimmick from breaking the fourth wall to including the same type of characters and plot lines, to even the opening and closing sequences. Yet, it still does not work as MIRANDA did and it is painfully obvious.
I wanted to love this show, but so far all I can say is, I am not.
CALL ME KAT is available to stream or not on Fox.
