Really

I dug the show. It was funny and well written. The dialogue and the jokes were top notch. I found the depiction of friends and married life to be pretty spot on. I also really liked the casting. Jay from BrokenLizard has turned into a good actor. I love Sarah Chalke and would watch her in anything. The guy that played Fred is really good too. I'm really curious to see where his storyline goes. I hope they make more of these. There needs to be more mature/intelligent writing on TV. I'm tired of watching relationship/dramas dumb it down for the audience. This is the first time I watched something and said "Yes, that's how it is!" Friends and relationships are never straight forward. This show gets it. My only criticism is that I want to see more.

Here's what I love about TV: it never knows what it is right away. Remember the first season of The Office? The first season of Seinfeld? If those were all we had to go on, they never would have become the classic series that we all know them as now. They got the chance to grow, though, and I'm hoping Really does, too. Right now? It's just a group of interesting characters and a healthy dose of blowjob humor. There's not really much of a story beyond "what happens when you're married to the same person every day?" but there's room to expand here. I love Sarah Chalke's take on the hot suburban mom and Selma Blair gets to really show her range as a petulant wife after years of playing petulant single women. Based on the cast alone, I can't wait to see what happens when actual story lines get introduced. Also, the running gag that Chalke's character can never decide what to order to drink is so hilarious. Like a baby bird, Really deserves a chance to spread its wings and fly and I hope we all get to see that happen.

Finally amazon has a series that competes with cable. Well written , directed , casted and acted. Makes you can't wait for the next episode. Sarah and Jay are hilarious. At times a little slow to build up to the climax but majority of the comedy is poignant and spot on. I feel I should be sitting at the dinner table with this group. Remember this is not Broken Lizard. This is Jay grown and developed demonstrating his unique sense of humor that only he can pull off in his direction, acting and writing . The cast chemistry works well together making this an entertaining series. I can only imagine the potential of this entire production if allowed to continue to develop the story line and explore each individual character . I want to see more!

Really is smart, insightful and hilarious. Any married guy (or guy who has ever been in a relationship) should be able to relate to this show. It's very real and honest and most importantly, it's funny. The situations and conversations are very true and real. It feels like I'm hanging out with my friends drinking wine and chatting. Plus, the actors have amazing chemistry and seem like they've been friends for years. Sarah Chalke is one of the funniest female actors on TV and Hayes MacArthur steals every scene he's in. It's also great seeing Selma Blair back in the spotlight. Her mix of cute sarcasm is quite unique. The cast is a 10 and I can see them all becoming huge stars off the success of this show. Really is like a modern day Thirtysomething or The Big Chill. Great show!

I liked the show, it felt real.The wife watched it after I did and the we watched it together, she said" its us but rich!" Its not to far out or drama laden to force you to care. Has a nice flow, doesn't jerk from scene to scene showing what each couple is doing at the same time.The writing is subdued and the cast doesn't talk in exclamation points. The only thing I didn't like about it was the wealth of the couples, most people don't live like this. The cast is decent looking but not that reality/movie beautiful. It seems to be a character driven drama not so much a comedy. It wouldn't replace 30 rock or community for me but its a great show from what I saw. Thanks Jay!
