Caricatures and Stereotypes

There is nothing new in the story whatsoever - no surprises, no cute or interesting deviations from the tired tropes we see in so many other romcoms. This show is what it looks like when writers "phone it in" instead of actually writing.

On the upside, there is some reasonably good and entertaining acting, far better than the script deserved. Unlike other reviewers, I don't think that either the ML or FL gave good performances. ML looked either wooden or like he was forcing himself to look less wooden and not succeeding. FL was a travesty - everything she put in her mouth got the exact same squee of delight, whether it was soup, coffee, or a carrot stick, or if it was a gift of some sort. Her acting was amateurish and painful to watch. The secondary characters, however, were vastly entertaining - the boss who is so hammy and chewed the scenery so flamboyantly, and the second male attorney and female attorney were worth watching, just for their masterful comedic skills. A gentle attraction portrayed with care between tertiary characters was a breath of fresh air as well.

The music was repetitive and therefore annoying, Sadly, and somewhat grimly, there was so much obvious plastic surgery/cosmetic procedures on display that it was distracting and depressing. For just one example, look at the FL's lips in the first several episodes and then look at them in the last episode. And the show spectacularly failed the Bechdel test, which is a hot button for me - seeing as the concept of women only talking about men with each other is so unrealistic as to be nauseating as well as insulting.
