"Up All Night" and "Free Agents" premiere: Will you keep watching?

(CBS) NBC is hoping to bring the funny to Wednesdays with two new sitcoms, both of which premiered last night.

So, did you watch "Up All Night" and/or "Free Agents"? We did! Here's what we thought of both:

"Up All Night" stars Will Arnett ("Arrested Development") and Christina Applegate ("Samantha Who?") as a former hard-partying couple adjusting to the joys and horrors of life with a baby. Arnett's character is a stay-at-home dad, while Applegate goes back to work as a producer for an "Oprah"-esque talk show (with "SNL"/"Bridesmaids"/etc alumna Maya Rudolph as the host).

The pilot crams a lot into a half hour - finding out the couple is pregnant, the baby's arrival, Applegate's character returning to work and having to juggle her demanding job (and boss) along with her home life. That's a lot of ground to cover in one episode.

But, that being said, the show works. It's well-cast and seems to be aiming for the "Modern Family" (read: successful) sort of balance between humor and sappy family moments. Its best bits included Applegate and Arnett cursing over how cute the baby is, arguing over who got less sleep and Arnett trying to navigate stay-at-home fatherhood (including panicking over getting lost in the supermarket because he can't find cheese).

While "Up All Night" had charm, "Free Agents" was less successful. The show, a remake of the British hit of the same name, centers around two co-workers at a PR agency - Alex (Hank Azaria), who is dealing with a divorce, and Helen (Kathryn Hahn), whose fiance recently died. The two have a one-night stand and then have to deal with the fallout at work.

Alex is sappy and spineless (he cries after sex, in the elevator, everywhere). Helen, who drinks lots of wine and surrounds herself with photos of her dead fiance, is a bit more likable. But Azaria and Hahn have little chemistry together.

Anthony Head reprises his role from the British version as the agency's lewd boss, but even watching Giles from "Buffy" making sex jokes gets old fast. The workplace is filled with the standard supporting cast tropes - the horndog, the sassy assistant, the weirdo security guard - and the pilot lacked a sense of rhythm and had few laughs.

"Free Agents" could need another few episodes to find its footing, as other now-beloved sitcoms like "30 Rock" and "Parks & Recreation" did. But the pilot doesn't give us much to go on.
