Connecting is an unusual show in that it's format hasn't really been used for comedy before. For those familiar with the emerging "screenlife" in films such as Searching or the Unfriended series produced Timur Bekmambetov, indie film The Den, and Nacho Vigalondo's Open Windows, you;ll notice this format is typically utilized for horror/thriller films. The attempt at using the storytelling framework for a sitcom is respectable, but it doesn't lend itself to humor as well as other formats and still needs some adjustment.
In terms of the characters, I think they're all likable and played by charismatic actors who have good chemistry with each other. In terms of the overall format I'm skeptical as to whether or not it's capable of maintaining it's premise for 13 episodes and beyond, but the show how a decent enough pilot that I am willing to stick with it for a few more episodes to see where it goes.
score 7/10
