Review by dodgeviper-vishav

It all started with Duchovy getting a bl****** from a hot blonde. I must confess that all the sex scenes are handled very intelligently and sometimes with loads of humor esp. the one in which hez seen getting punched a young woman. Then out of nowhere you realize that hez a guy who has a family which has broken because of his philandering. I like the way the daughter and father relationship is shown. They are shown to be frens. Duchovy is shown as a person who is hell bent on ruining his life but that;s one side of him..his reaction to his wife leaving him. He so very loves her that everything seems to be secondary in front of the agony of separation and seeing her getting married to another person. Everything seems so real that i could not point out a single thing that would not/could not happen with a ordinary person like me. It is so close to reality. Everyone is shown with their grey sides. Everyone is weak or more human than any other series on the block. Being from India this is was a great cultural experience for me coz i got some real insight of the society people live in. This was completely different from the ones portrayed by the movies and hell lot of other soap operas. This show has everything from entertainment to real serious philosophies. It never questions you anything but it gets you to a corner and leave you with no choice but to ponder upon the intricacies of life. Life is complex...this series doesnot make it a bit simple yet it very simply and subtly portrays the complexity on the screen. I am eagerly waiting for the 2nd season and see how the protagonist is able to cope up with the marital bliss that he is blessed with for a 2nd time.
