This show is the most truthful portrayal of what men think about. I know men won't admit it to their significant others and women will never believe it, but this series very accurately portrays a man in a relationship. No matter how well a guy has it, the grass is always greener on the other side. That is the basis for this whole series. The internal everyday battle of men to stay faithful to the one they love when their natural animal instincts and testosterone are telling them to try and sleep with every fine piece of arse they see. I know it doesn't sound beautiful or poetic but its truth.Anyways, the show is hilarious, especially if you are more into darker, drier humour. Wish HBO never cancelled it.

I love this show! Lots of little cues for us married folks. Married guys do think like Mike. It ain't easy you know.... Sonya Walger somehow channels the spirit of the late Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched) and is the most original beauty to hit the screen in decades. Amazingly she can act too and I hope Hollywood wakes upand makes her a star. Mike Binder does a great job of showing how guys cansuffer deep misery even when they have the world by the tail. I'm too married to "get" Sex and the City so maybe you could be too single to get Mind of theMarried Man. Still, it's top notch stuff and a pleasure to watch every week. HBO has been silent lately and I worry that Mind of the Married Man is a goner for next season. Sure hope not!

People who think poorly of this show are obviously taking it WAY too seriously. The show is called "Mind of the Married Man" and if any of you have met a man (a married one, especially) you would know that his mind is filled with some of the most randomly dishonest thoughts imaginable. This is how men think, this is our world, thus the premise of the show. If HBO wanted a show that sugarcoats the evil and immoral thoughts of men for the pure comedic value of it, they'd call it "The Drew Carey Show" and be done with it. Give it another shot if you're not sure about this show, I'm sure you can find the humor in it as so many other people have.

How to explain that summary? I don't really know why I watch this show, but I do watch it, every week. Maybe I'm just too lazy to switch the channel after Curb Your Enthusiasm? I know there have been a lot of negative comments posted here regarding Mind, but it really isn't all that bad. Arli$$ was easily the worst show HBO ever put on. At least Mind is well-written and well-acted--there is a definite attempt at quality here. I just wish it wasn't all so depressing. This is supposed to be a comedy, but these are some of the most unlikeable characters in existence. The men are all jerks and the women are all saints. There isn't a single appealing character on the show. Mike Binder's writing just isn't very uplifting. There are occasionally funny moments, but over all, this just isn't a very entertaining show. Yet I still watch it (in fact, I've never missed an episode). Why?
