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.

Every person who says this show is terrible just doesn't get it. It's not supposed to be some high brow nonsense, its fun, and cheesy and kinda cliché and tongue in cheek and THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT AWESOME. It is an interesting concept and is fun to watch the night pan out and learn more about these characters, however ridiculous they are. I do believe this is a show that is best watched in one/two/three sittings as opposed to once a week. Its on netflix so get on it. Just watch it and give it a chance; if you don't like it then you are a dowdy unpleasant person with no sense of fun. Or you just don't like it and that's cool too. Either way, I think it is excellent.

If you like satire and understand the dating scene when going out, I think you'll enjoy this show. It isn't a realistic depiction if what happens but shows you the funny side of things when meeting new people or running into ex's.A lot of reviews say it is dumb, bad, and without content. The entertainment that comes from this is subtle, reading in between the lines, and understanding everything behind it.I can agree with them on one thing, it is a simplistic view of night life. I love it as it basically makes fun of it. So if you go out at night and have a good amount of experience mingling with the opposite sex, I think you'll find those show a funny way of passing the time.

Though this seems like a shallow comedy at first viewing, eventually you will realize that this has more heart and better writing than HIMYM. HIMYM always depended on shallow emotions, goofy situations etc, but mixology is driven solely by intelligent,witty interaction between the protagonists. Even though the male trio does have something similar to the "bro code", it never becomes bizarre and irritating. The scenes are short and sweet and each episode is just short enough to convince you that all this is happening in one night. So its well edited. The series is well casted and so far everyone has done justice to their roles.
