This is one of the best sitcoms of the fall.

What Surburgatory lacks in novelty, it compensates for with a steady stream of gags, splashes of nuance (and nuance's vivid opposite), the comedic flow of Ana Gasteyer and Chris Parnell as the Altmans' neighbors, and an undercurrent of sweetness.

As you're wincing your way through Suburgatory, an unpalatable sitcom that has its premiere on ABC on Wednesday night, ponder the question that no studio executives apparently did: Who is the audience for this show?

Suburgatory wrings so many laughs from the oft-maligned wasteland you're likely to come back for more.

Suburgatory, which like its Wednesday night running mates is without a laugh track, has some nice touches in its passably amusing opening episode. It also joins the likes of 2 Broke Girls, Whitney and Free Agents in its zeal to be sexplicit.

Suburgatory falls flat -- a flatness that will be accentuated by the smart suburban comedies that bookend it.

The show also offers some whip-smart dialogue and a central father-daughter relationship with seemingly boundless opportunities for conflict.
