Clip: 2012, Michael Urie and David Krumholtz costarring in the sitcom PARTNERS

PARTNERS: Premiere - 9/24/2012, CBS
In the nineties, Fox had had a great sitcom called PARTNERS about two young guys who were best friends and had an architecture firm together.
In 2012, CBS debuted a supposedly unrelated sitcom with the same exact title and identical premise, except this time one of the two architects (played by Michael Urie) was gay.
Even with a super-talented cast and a fantastic director (James Burrows, who had also worked on the Fox series), CBS's 2012 PARTNERS never quite "clicked," and it vanished after six episodes.
