Four in the Morning

I gave this show the benefit of the doubt for the first few episodes to see if it would find its footing. Not a chance. This show is terrible! It's all that's wrong with TV programming these days.

I realize it's not supposed to be plot driven (there isn't any) so one would hope the character focus would be enough. That didn't happen. Who cares about a group of 20- something friends who are completely self-absorbed, narcissistic, lacking in heart and soul, and who spend their seemingly copious amounts of free time just hanging out and talking ad nauseum about random things in order to appear all edgy and cool? I know it aspires to be all intellectual and trippy, but it's just so self-aware and superficial. The only character I could bare to watch for brief moments was William. The musician guy is particularly awful.

I doubt I could bring myself to watch another episode, never mind season.

This show is all right. I do get what a lot of the reviewers here are saying, that's it can get boring and talking heavy and that the comedy really drags sometimes but that's the kind of show this is supposed to be with some very subtle and understated stuff. But I also disagree with the really glowing reviews here, because frankly this show just is not that great either. It's worth checking out and you may not like it or you may think it's quite good. If you don't like it you don't have to watch it remember!

This show was very short lived. If you blinked you would've missed it and that is not a bad thing. Not a terrible idea except the whole idea of modern dating yada yada has all been done before and been done a lot better. The writing was terrible. Acting not much better.

Say what you want about this show and I know a lot of people didn't like it, in fact I'm still not sure whether I liked or just tolerated it as an interesting TV oddity, but you can't deny that at least this show was trying to do something different. It may not have worked out but thank you CBC for at least trying to do something risky and different instead of the usual garbage you churn out!

I was very tempted by the commercials and tried a few episodes - no longer. It seems like 2 couples dealing with 20-something angst issues.. and then throws junk in. One character talks about her sexual dysfunction and then goes into a monologue like a German torch song S&M montage; another time a cocktail party has an actor actually blow up the moon. A real history of abuse? A dream sequence? After 30 minutes of this, you don't care and there's no resolution anyways. The surreal bits seem like they intrude on what MIGHT be a interesting relationship show. I confess - I watch anything with Michelle Mylett in it but no longer. And I'm sure that Maslany's character of Bondurant Smit would be entertaining in a high school play but is so over-the-top here he's a complete turn-off. The others just seem along for the ride. It's sad because I'm sure other young script writers would have killed for the chance to do a show and be good at it.
