The series stars Eliza Coupe and Jay Harrington in pivotal roles with Maria Bamford, Jolene Purdy, Carter MacIntyre and Oscar Nunez as the supporting cast. The show premiered on USA Network on October 28, 2014.[2] On January 14, 2015, USA Network cancelled Benched after one season[3] because of low ratings. The series premiered to 870,000 viewers in October, and while it held steady for much of its 12-episode run, its showing remained modest.[4] Despite cancelation Benched received mostly positive reviews during its short run with the pairing of Coupe and Harrigton being pointed as the highlight of the show.[5] Cast

Club gave the series the most praise saying, "From the writing, to the cast, to impactful details like the spot-on styling and sets, Benched exudes confidence and commitment."[24] Melissa Maerz of Entertainment Weekly lauded the series and Eliza Coupe's performance and said, "Benched is more lightweight [than Enlightened], but it's encouragingly funny thanks to Coupe, whose attempts at anger management showcase impeccable comic timing."[25] Maureen Ryan of The Huffington Post also gave a positive review writing, "It's rare to come across a comedy that displays such admirable focus and delivers such smartly packaged slices of diverting escapism. More, please."[26] On the negative side Los Angeles Times wrote, "Benched is nowhere near as funny as it thinks it is, mainly because Watkins and Jones seem to believe that the endless humiliations of a thin, attractive, previously well-compensated blond woman are all it takes to make people laugh."[27]References1. ^1 2 {{cite press release |url=http://www.nbcumv.com/mediavillage/networks/usanetwork/pressreleases?pr=contents/press-releases/2014/01/24/usanetworkpicks1519558.xml |title=USA Network Picks-Up Half Hour Original Comedy Series Benched |date=24 January 2014 |publisher=USA Network |accessdate=19 February 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140225181556/http://www.nbcumv.com/mediavillage/networks/usanetwork/pressreleases?pr=contents%2Fpress-releases%2F2014%2F01%2F24%2Fusanetworkpicks1519558.xml |archivedate=25 February 2014 |df= }} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://thefutoncritic.com/news/2014/09/22/usa-network-to-premiere-original-comedy-series-benched-on-tuesday-october-28th-392405/20140922usa01/|title=USA Network to Premiere Original Comedy Series "Benched" on Tuesday, October 28th|work=The Futon Critic|date=September 22, 2014|accessdate=October 7, 2014}} 3. ^http://deadline.com/2015/01/benched-cancelled-usa-one-season-1201350501/ 4. ^http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/usa-cancels-benched-763975 5. ^1 http://www.metacritic.com/tv/benched 6. ^http://www.usanetwork.com/benched/cast/sheryl 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.deadline.com/2013/10/usa-orders-comedy-presentation-starring-eliza-coupe-from-abc-signature/ |title=USA Orders Comedy Presentation Starring Eliza Coupe & Produced By ABC Signature |last1=Andreeva |first1=Nellie |date=23 October 2013 |website=Deadline Hollywood |accessdate=19 February 2014}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://tvline.com/2014/01/24/benched-eliza-coupe-jay-harrington-usa-network-series/ |title=USA Network Picks Up Eliza Coupe-Jay Harrington Courtroom Comedy Benched |last1=Ausiello |first1=Michael |website=TVLine |date=24 January 2014 |accessdate=19 February 2014}} 9. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.deadline.com/2014/02/the-offices-oscar-nunez-joins-new-usa-comedy-series-benched/ |title=The Office’s Oscar Nuñez Joins New USA Comedy Series Benched As Regular |last1=Andreeva |first1=Nellie |date=12 February 2014 |website=Deadline Hollywood |accessdate=19 February 2014}} 10. ^1 {{Cite web |url=http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/02/21/jolene-purdy-joins-news-usa-network-comedy-benched/238910/ |title=Jolene Purdy Joins News USA Network Comedy 'Benched' |publisher=TV by the Numbers |date=February 21, 2014 |accessdate=February 21, 2014}} 11. ^1 {{Cite news |url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/usas-eliza-coupe-comedy-benched-684035|title=USA's Eliza Coupe Comedy 'Benched' Books Carter MacIntyre |work=The Hollywood Reporter |date=February 27, 2014 |accessdate=February 27, 2014}} 12. ^{{cite web |url=http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/10/29/tuesday-cable-ratingssons-of-anarchy-wins-night-19-kids-counting-ink-master-face-off-awkward-more/320663/ |title=Tuesday Cable Ratings:'Sons of Anarchy' Wins Night, '19 Kids & Counting', 'Ink Master', 'Face Off', 'Awkward' & More |publisher=TV by the Numbers |date=October 29, 2014 |accessdate=October 30, 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141031193023/http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/10/29/tuesday-cable-ratingssons-of-anarchy-wins-night-19-kids-counting-ink-master-face-off-awkward-more/320663/ |archivedate=October 31, 2014 |df= }} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/11/05/tuesday-cable-ratings-sons-of-anarchy-tops-night-19-kids-and-counting-election-coverage-more/324203/ |title=Tuesday Cable Ratings: 'Sons of Anarchy' Tops Night + '19 Kids and Counting', Election Coverage & More |publisher=TV by the Numbers |date=November 5, 2014 |accessdate=November 12, 2014}} 14. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.tvmediainsights.com/tv-ratings/tuesday-final-nationals-voice-chicago-fire-lift-nbc-win-among-adults-18-49/ |title=Tuesday Final Nationals: 'The Voice' and 'Chicago Fire' Lift NBC to Win Among Adults 18-49 -
