This season, Chuck Lorre has produced four sitcoms that air on CBS. They are Young Sheldon, Mom, Bob Hearts Abishola and the new Thursday night entry B Positive.
The first three shows have had success but B Positive is another show in the post Young Sheldon slot that is destined for an early cancellation. First of all, it's a lousy premise, focusing on a man who had a kidney transplant. Medical issues should stay with shows such as Gray's Anatomy or Amsterdam and not be turned into a sitcom.
But the main thing I dislike about the show is Annaleigh Ashford. Though she is a very talented stage actress and singer, her character Gina is another sitcom ditz. I did notice that Linda Lavin occasionally appears on the show and that's the lone bright spot.
Otherwise, B Positive gets an F. It will have a shorter run than any of Lorre's other shows.
