    After reading a lot of the other reviews I've decided to preface mine with this: If you are incapable of appreciating some satire satire, don't bother watching. If you expect every TV show to be a perfect representation of real life, or close to the other end of the spectrum: you expect all TV shows to not contain any representation/depiction of scummy/misogyny that occurs in real life in any way other than damning it then again, don't bother watching. However, this is nowhere near Blue Mountain State misogyny. Mixology takes a different approach to the traditional sitcom format. The entire one season series is contained within one night at a seemingly popular bar in NYC. While the characters are somewhat exaggerated representations of the average individual, I don't think people really watch TV shows because they're average. Nobody lives the life of Ted Mosby from HIMYM, or Joey in Friends, so yeah its a little cheesy and exaggerated but I would attribute that primarily to the fact that they had to fit a great deal of character development. I think this choice of format was a fun approach, rather than make season after season with at least the occasional filler episode, the creators of this show sought to portray what I would call the dating condition as opposed to the human condition. The characters are funny exaggerations of people we (or at least I) know. The show follows these individuals through one night at the bar. Each episode brings you into a different level of depth in the characters, and yeah most all of the characters have some less than desirable trait(s), some of which may be found as offensive. This is where I say you can argue that the show is actually a little more realistic than most sitcoms; most of these characters aren't super likable a lot of the time, but guess what? There are a lot of not super likable people. Not every sitcom has to have all highly likable characters. Overall points to note: Will you be dying of laughter the whole show? Perhaps, it would depend on your sense of humor and I suppose potentially having an interest in psychology or sociology would help too. I don't however feel that the only goal was to entertain in just a comedic fashion. It's an entertaining take on what could be considered years of bar experiences compressed pretty smoothly into one seasons worth of television. For what it is I truly enjoyed it. The show doesn't follow same old same old sitcom formatting or goals, I think if your open minded about that fact then you'll enjoy this show as well.

    I'll try to be brief about this show. After watching the pilot which had a good potential, i decided to give it a try and ended watching the whole season. So for me this is what was wrong with it: phony "smart" characters despite some likable ones, phony "smart" dialogs, bland plot, funny like 10% or 20% part of time and unfunny for the rest of it.I'll not be surprised if they keep it a one season show, I mean there is nothing more to add to the plot. I'm also surprised that they let it air or even produce it.It's a total waste of time.

    I have watched many serials but this is one of the greatest ! So much laugh, the actors are perfect and the characters they're playing are so different and interesting ! This is maybe the most addictive serial!One word : Perfect !I really hope there will be a second and more seasons ! I am surprised about the low rate of 6.7/10...how is this even possible ?Have you guys really watched it ? Less than 9 is a crime.....
