Wasted potential
Finally, a show labeled ROMCOM that actually started out as one! There were some very amusing moments in this show. The problem is, they tried to add a suspense/mystery element and then didn't develop it completely. What was the firefighter's secret? What was the devastation from his past? Where did the AI in the refrigerator come from? Why was it there? These are all questions that I didn't feel were adequately answered. Add to that a villain that you never pay attention to throughout the whole show so he doesn't really make any sense. And I can't say that these things didn't have time to be addressed due to there being only 10 episodes. These things totally could have been addressed within that time frame.
WRITING: As I said, there were a lot of amusing moments in this show. However, I really didn't like the way the women were written. They were written as needy and the type that can't be without a man. Women basically stalking men and then continually saying "I texted you so many times, why didn't you text me back?" I did like the friendship between the women, I thought it was realistic - you know you have those friends that sometimes irritate the heck out of you, but if they need you, you're there in a second. That's how these women were written and I enjoyed their camaraderie.
CHEMISTRY: There were a few good kisses and some hand holding. Sex is intimated.
MUSIC: I'll be honest, I don't remember it. The only thing I remember is the bad karaoke.
REWATCH: I don't feel the need to re-watch this. There weren't enough memorable things in this show.
OVERALL: It's an enjoyable watch if you lower your expectations and kind of leave your brain at the door. It has the added benefit of being only 10 episodes.
