This was an excellent program, and I can't believe that the writers and directors didn't have enough of a story line to continue this beyond one season. It truly was an realistic depiction of relationships in our dysfunctional society. The acting was so good that I found myself liking some characters and fully disliking others. They were fully fleshed out. Jane Alexander as the therapist was sublime. And the disclosure of what she was dealing with in her life was a fantastic story line. Wish this would have been more than one season.

Guess some comments might be spoilers. Couple one.. he unquestionably loves her, and she does him. But she is an unabashed serial cheater that has had numerous sexual relationships, and has never by her own admission been monogamous in any of them, even with her now current fiancée. So she gets married and all that's immediately going to change.. and she's already talking to him about what if I f--k up again? Next couple.. she's been pregnant twice now and has had both go away for different reasons... so she definitely can and very seriously wants to get pregnant. But he adamantly does not want to have any kids. So really, where are they logically heading. And the last couple has discovered some form of sex again. Wither it will lead them to doing 'it' together after such a long absence is quite another matter. Their 'other-dreams' have still not changed, and she'll now be going back out into the workforce coming into contact with loads of other men. So two out of three are definitely on very shaky ground...just like the real world. It's really too bad they stopped this series after one season, it hardly got going and should have had more time. It was so well cast, written, and acted. It's very disappointing it all ended so soon.

I think that this is a great show. It gets into the relationships closer and it shows more realistic life experiences. The sex scenes are not pornographic but are realistic I think. The ups and downs that everyone goes through are amazing. Also, I'd just like to point out that someone made a comment attacking the show or the woman on the show because of how shaved the girls are, and I felt that I wanted to defend that. I don't know what part of life you are currently in, but THAT is NOT just for porn, real people are like that. I've not seen a woman under the age of 30 who does not look similar to either Jamie or Caroline. However, I digress. I suggest that this is a great drama for someone who wants to take some of the cliché out of the typical Hollywood type stuff.

This is a review of the pilot only, and I think that it can be a worthy review because of that - the point of any pilot is to make you want to watch the rest of the series, and in that this pilot failed rather badly.And that is a shame, considering that the show is filled with potential. It's about time that a frank, European-style depiction of sex appeared on North American television, and it is even a breath of fresh air. And, from the beginning, the show gives the sense that there are immense depths for it to explore. Unfortunately, while the concept is very good, it is in the execution that the show fails.The greatest weakness is in character development. The characters simply aren't developed beyond their genitalia, or more specifically, their problems regarding said genitalia. By the end of the first hour, in the three main couples, I only knew what two people did for a living, and the show only gives you the occasional flash that these characters have any sort of life beyond their sex (or lack thereof). The only subplot of the pilot was about a 10 year old girl getting a period - so even the kids are defined by their genitalia.And, ultimately, at the end of the episode I couldn't care less about what happened to any of these people. A realistic depiction of relationship problems is a good thing, but you have to have some emotional investment in the characters for said depiction to actually be meaningful, and the show just doesn't show you enough to allow for that. We are introduced to these characters through their problems, we see their problems throughout, but we never explore any of the good things in their lives, or the interaction between the positive and negatives in said lives. With character development that poor, it renders what could be a wonderfully deep series very shallow indeed.
