Advance Review: Has there ever been a cable channel that has split its brand quality so distinctly as FX has with its pedigree lineup of shows like Louie, Justified, and Fargo, and bottom-barrel muck like Charlie Sheen's Anger Management, George Lopez' Saint George, and (now) Kelsey Grammer and Martin Lawrence's Partners?
The former shows are designed to be distinct, unique top-tier entertainment created to bring discerning eyes to the network. The latter are hacky, rushed, mass-produced multi-cam comedies starring notable sitcom stars from the past, playing roles very similar to the ones that once made them famous, that undiscerning eyes will readily recognize while they're channel surfing. Causing those eyes to hopefully stop on FX in the midst of seeking out brainless blech.
