Basic and Borderline Sexist Writing
The story of this drama is literally a lose-lose situation for every character, but in the most sexist way possible? The man is simply excused for any possible wrongdoing he could do. For example, he's a cheater until he reveals he actually didn't cheat and it was because his wife was too scary for him to communicate to. His ending is to start therapy to finally learn communication but he breaks up based on a miscommunication so what is even the point.
Then we have our main character. No woman would want to work with her ex-husband who supposedly cheated on her. That makes sense until the writer keeps making her make all the wrong choices encouraged by her "bitch" friend. She goes through all this effort to find closure, from dating a blind date to getting back with her ex husband. Just for her ex husband to end it with another miscommunication. But this time she is asked to leave the workplace for the sake of her ex husband.
Then you have a character whose name is simply because the writer wanted to make a "bitch" pun, not once but TWICE (even made the character say the joke was so good he should be a writer, way to pat yourself on the back). Her entire character is about men. All she talks about is men. We don't learn anything about her character until she is pregnant and the father of her child explains to the audience that this whole time she was apparently aspiring to open up her own law firm. Heaven forbid we learn that about her character before she slept with a man and got pregnant, right? But it's fine because the father will become a stay at home father while she will become the breadwinner.
There you have it. A workplace drama about how women can't be successful unless they have children. Why else would the main character get fired from her law firm? Her ex husband doesn't want kids so obviously she's the one who has to leave. On the other hand, her friend gets to stay because she's pregnant and will even one day have her own law firm.
