Perfect Couples

I'm kinda confused by the negative reviews and low scores here so I thought I'd give my 2 cents. I'm thinking that a lot of people leaving negative reviews may actually find 2 and a 1/2 men funny. There are so many bad comedies around, and there aren't many based around couples that aren't sitcoms and that don't feel really forced, so for me Perfect Couples is exactly what I like watching.

It has great acting, fun characters that are appealing with characteristics that anyone can associate with, and snappy editing. And while Olivia Munn's character 'is' annoying, she is actually really good in her role.

Anyway, would love this show to stick around for a while, and if you're a fan of comedies such as Road Trip, Buying the Cow, or Tomcats, then you should like this. Otherwise, don't watch it, and stop whining.

Don't get me wrong, the pilot episode left a lot to be desired. It was very forced and awkward. However, it got much better just by the 2nd episode. I don't find Modern Family funny, whatsoever and I am confused why people like it. This show deserves a second chance from NBC, I mean they had the Paul Reiser show for crying out loud! Not to mention 2 seasons of Outsourced, which was horrible! I think that if you like shows like How I Met Your Mother, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, or the Office you would like this show. I also don't know why people dislike Olivia Munn so much. She is funny and pretty! I don't think she is really like the character she plays on Perfect Couples, she is just acting folks...

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.

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+!
