Perfect Couples

Any bad review of this show has been of the pilot and though I found it funny, pales in comparison with the rest of the season. You may not like Olivia Munn but her character fits her perfectly. The same can be said for the rest of the cast, helping the show move along with fun energy. Now the network wants to replace it with the Paul Reiser show? a bootleg Curb your Enthusiasm? I just don't see how a show about dealing with how old and pathetic you are trumps a TV lineup targeted to college age crowds.

Hopefully its just the end of the season and it will return in the fall and I set up an IMDb account to cry over nothing at all.

I had to register to IMDb only to comment on this awesome show. I'm so disappointed with NBC. I couldn't believe when i read that they are cancelling the show. It was an awesome show. Great characters and dialogue and it was so funny! I loved it! My Favorite couple was Dave and Julia, they had some really funny moments. I think this show deserve a second chance and that NBC really should reconsider their decision about cancelling the show. I really do feel that this show is much funnier than some of the shows that they have. I'm a big fan of this show and just waiting for the moment that this show gonna come back to air! only 10+!

This show had potential to be quite good.

This and a similar program (Happy Endings) were both new this season. Thought this one was much funnier and entertaining. It is quirky and requires a few episodes to 'get' the characters and humour, but once you do, it really takes off.

I found the last few episodes to be great, and though I was on the fence for the first few, I was sold toward the end and would have stuck with it. Versus a flat, boring story line (like most new "couples" comedies) this one was slightly over-the-top and fun to watch. A show like that stands out from others that blend in with normality. This would have picked up a larger audience with every season it ran, whereas the others would have lost many to boredom.

VERY upset to see this was dropped. Bad move.

The pilot for Perfect Couples was OK. It felt staged and the parts that could have been funny often weren't. Conceptually, I could see the humor but it wasn't coming through. But, I saw the potential in this show. The concept behind each couple is interesting and funny, so I gave it another shot. The second episode was hilarious! It had so much more depth, both in the characters and in the comedy. The whole episode came full circle with additional story lines for added comedy. The couples seemed natural and relaxed. I actually watched it twice. The acting in this episode was a lot better. Olivia Munn is surprisingly perfect for her character, Leign, who is hilarious with Rex. The actors come together as couples well. The show does a lot of comparisons between the couples, how things have happened between them, how they handle things differently. It adds a nice element to the show beyond the couples' interaction with each other. I would recommend giving it a shot, just look past the pilot. It seems like it will only get better.

I do not understand why more people are not watching this show. It is downright hilarious! In my opinion, this is the best show on TV since The Office or Arrested Development. The humor is great and full of wit and sarcasm. I don't think a lot of people understand that some of the character's actions and motives are supposed to be silly at times. This show is a C-O-M-E-D-Y, not some real-life take on the world. It is better understood if you watch it from the beginning to fully understand the characters and how they all relate (which can be viewed for free on NBC's site), but it is not necessary, just helps. The acting is good (again, it's a comedy, not Titanic), and the writing is fantastic. They are able to blend that fine line of silly humor with dry wit in a way that few other shows can. Do yourself a favor and check out the show as soon as you can.
