"United States of Al"

Unlike "B Positive", which I kinda sorta like, Chuck Lorre's newest offering "United States of Al" got me right out of the gate.  It's that beautiful mix Lorre is so very very good at.  "Big Bang Theory" guy-who-doesn't-fit-in.  Check. "Mom" pendulum of funny-to-serious.  Check.  "Bob (hearts) Abishola" respect for the riches brought to our nation by immigrants.  Check Check Check.  Very worthy, very watchable, very engaging.  Only one question -- this is Chuck Lorre's fifth concurrent show running on CBS.  Does the man sleep?  Does he have clones?  Seriously ... how does he do it???
