Love

It feels like a very realistic romcom at first.. A huge nerd meets a borderline kind of girl with a lot of personal issues.. Then for some completely unrealistic reason the women in the series see him as a very attractive God. He almost stumbles from one girl to the other without doing anything for it at all.. It takes away the whole realistic feel of the series.. but then I saw that Paul Rust (starring role as Gus) is one of the creators and writers of the series.. Not saying anything anymore..

I personally loved the first season with memorable episodes, including 'the date', with Birtie and Gus just to name one. So I was looking forward to the second season and it did not disappoint at all! The shows good at what it aims to do. It's not a series for its deep intricate plotting. It's an exercise in character, one that happens to feature truly exciting personalities. Perhaps this is the perfect example where a shows structure is perfect with the balance of bin-gable viewing with it's blended ease. Love has a certain charm to it and each episode feels like a mini-indie movie and by episode 5 your reminded why this series is such a real pleasure to watch! Loved it bring on season 3

One of the main characters, Mickey, is just horrible. It's amazing she appears to have friends on this show, because she's super selfish. If people are not talking about what she wants, or when she cannot relate to the conversation, or she's not getting any attention, she just keeps annoying people or even sabotaging the night. It's just uncomfortable to watch. And sure she's a recovering drug addict, but most people don't even know that.

I do kind of like Gus, but then it annoys me that he would go for such a horrible person.

I am still watching this though. I'm pathetic.

I seriously believe the character of Mickey Dobbs has borderline personality disorder. She shows all the symptoms perfectly. And i can tell this how? Because I've got the same illness. Her addiction to love and sex, her habit of smoking, her narcissism, her wanting to start a fight, blaming others, her careless nature, and the most significant symptom - unstable relationships, all point to borderline personality disorder. I applaud the writers who have really showed what its like to be a borderline and what its like to date one. If anybody have any views or opinions on this?

I can't believe how many reviews here try to sum up this show with comments like "awful people", "awful characters", "he or she is this or that". How so many people can just miss the point of this show is unbelievable to me.

The beauty of the show and characters is the fact that no-one is perfect and that we are all flawed. How many people do you know in real life where their lives are flawless? How many of our lives have a resolution to every mistake or situation we have ever found ourselves in?

This show is excellent. It's funny. It's moving. It has pain, and regret, and love, and frustration, and stress, and annoyance, and respect, and regret and passion. As fictional as it appears, it does an amazing job in resembling all of our day to day relationships, while providing the viewer with the escapism and fun we need from just sitting back and watching TV.

I'm writing this review after a few beers, but a man is at his most honest when he's less than sober (ironically), but this this show has been my favourite show for a long time and people need to look past some idiotic reviews in here. This show works. The script works. The cast works. The director works. The soundtrack works. This shows is flawless. Just sit down, and watch it.
