Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The show became a syndication cash cow despite mixed reviews, proving 2010s CBS comedy economics were wild. It also launched Kat Dennings into Marvel's Thor universe, because Hollywood loves a sarcastic waitress pipeline.
Whitney Cummings left after season 2, and the show noticeably softened Max's edge — some fans mourn the early seasons' meaner energy, others prefer when Caroline stopped being quite so insufferable.
