This show grew up so much since episode 1. I've just watched episode 11 and I found the plot really catchy. It's simply close to reality and it's worth watching. The stories of these 5 friends are just getting better each new episode and for common newbies in real world... I found it helpful, if you get it. Daphne's story line couldn't get any better and what it goes for Miles, who's now sort of hooked up with the messed up girl with no control on spending matters(Daphne)... Well, they turned out to be a great couple in the end. Right, I had some doubts because of the friendship background history they had. Sophia is taking risks, getting more wild and out of her shell... basically she is starting to live, and this couldn't have been more right for her writer career. Lou and Raviva are dealing with so much at the same time... They are such a catch to keep up with. And by the way Raviva's songs are a cool add to this show that has all the ingredients to work out. I just hope MTV doesn't cancel it.

The show starts out with a narrator on a laptop talking about their life, much like MTV's hit show 'Awkward', which I do enjoy watching. The harsh stereotypes that this show has almost hurts, it's so cliché to any other MTV show that is out right now. I must also say that every scripted show MTV has out (ex. US Version of 'The Inbetweeners') has failed with a bad rating and low weekly viewing rating. You see a stereotype of friends with benefits, 20 year old virgins, and unpaid interns. They also live in a beautiful NEW YORK apartment, even though their unpaid, unemployed or working at a donut shop. This show isn't the worse, but it isn't the best. Not something you want to stay up till 11pm watching.

This in first look may seem to be a cliché show about young friends trying to put together a life in Chicago... but once you start following subsequent episodes, believe me.. it's kinda fun. It reminds us in our mundane lives, that how friendships and true bondings are important to support one another and go through good and not so good times and circumstances.It's a youthful and enthusiastic show, which gives us a surprisingly refreshing view and a positive outlook towards, people, friendships, relations and lives all together, with keeping the background quiet realistic in today's modern American big city life. A good show indeed... of course for those who get the hang of it...!

I watched this show one late night not really knowing what to expect... Then I found that I love this show!! It's about dreams not always coming true but people making the best of what they have.5 friends trying to live their life in New York and make something of themselves might sound a bit cliché to most but I found this show very different from the rest and now i'm hopelessly addicted! Most people can actually connect with this show because it's very true and real that dreams almost never come true. And you have to work hard in life which is what this show is all about. Especially in New York where everyone is just a little fish in a big pond which is what they are trying to relate to this series.

This show is pretty bad. The story lines seem pretty flimsy, the humour is mostly cringe worthy, and all the characters are irrational and unrealistic. It is a shame, because most of the actors are hot (with the exception of Lou) and the acting itself isn't terrible.

This could be a decent show, but as it stands it just seems like yet another desperate attempt by MTV to appeal to us 20-somethings feeling sorry for ourselves because 'lifes so hard'. It certainly falls short of that for me, but I can see it being a hit with kids who are fresh out of high school and expecting life to be all 'friends forever' and are gullible enough to believe that two adults and a baby can afford a 2 bedroom loft apartment on 1 salary.

I'm really surprised this crap came from the same person who produced Six Feet Under, because comparatively, this is a load of (not totally unwatchable, but still stinky) garbage.
