Man Seeking Woman

Everyone has been dumped, or dumped someone. We all know the exaggerated feelings that come along with this, feelings of helplessness, anger etc. This show is the most clever manifestation of those feelings I've ever seen on television. Blind dating like dating a troll, getting a girls number making you feel like a genius, deleting an ex's number like an exorcism? This show is one of the most clever things on television. People are taking it too literally, like what is happening is really happening rather than an interpretation of what we've all felt. Watch it that way, and you won't be disappointed. I surely hope this show succeeds and with an open mind one will find that they've felt this way too and the wit behind the show is phenomenal.

**PERTAINING TO THE BAD REVIEWS OF THIS TITLE ON IMDb**

Although the sample size might not be big enough, it seems like the bad reviews of this program on IMDb are exclusively written from non-American accounts. Maybe the writing of this show is just not destined to do well in foreign lands.

**MAIN OPINION**

While the show is way over the top, I think if you just relax and don't take it seriously, that's what makes it hilarious. Constantly the show might fool you into thinking Josh is in some sort of dream or day-dream when this is the shows reality; from a blind date with an actual troll to sitting with America's council of defense contemplating what the contents of his text should be to a girl he met on the train, this show is goofy is heck darn it.

**THE PILOT**

So often pilots are so crammed with exposition of the characters and the main driving force of the show or plot that good writing can be hard to find in a comedy. This is a good example of what a pilot can be. I was able to learn the role of each character without them being force fed to me. And I got to chuckle throughout the episode. Comparing the first episode to the rest of the season, it's very consistent, meaning you should probably be able to tell if the show is or isn't for you just by watching the pilot.

This show is absolutely one of the stupidest things I have ever seen yet it is incredibly funny and insightful. It's not just a brain dead spoof show. The creators have put a lot of thought into the concept and execution. The cast included.

It may seem a little extreme but who hasn't faced some of these emotions and felt that their world was going to end. People naturally have a tendency to overreact. All they have done is turned it into a literal representation. Each episode I find myself relating to his angst and uncertainty. It's ridiculous but comically realistic.

And don't be confused into thinking it's a laugh riot as the humour is more intelligent than that. It won't be for everyone but everyone should be able to relate.

Man seeking woman is definitely a surprise. For those of us who rejoice with absurd humour we are in for a treat. The story does not seem to follow a real story and might not make you burst out in laughter, but it will make you, for sure, comment to your friends and family about it. Some of the ideas are so damn ludicrous you eventually get hooked to it. Besides, some of the ideas you will see in here will have previously crossed your mind in several occasions, it's funny because you will see them in an actual show and think: "hey, i once thought of that! I am not such a weirdo after all!". Well... thats cute. Yes you are. So am i. And so is this show.So now let's enjoy it.

Now this is a show that makes a lasting impact with a simple premise and a ludicrous execution that can only be toured as an awesome underrated series that's worth a watch.
