Mixology

Everything that the negative reviews of this show report is valid. It begins at an incredible level of vulgarity and I came yea close to moving on in the first five minutes. I'd only hope that no adolescent male ever takes this as having any relation to the actual reality of courting women, let alone succeeding at it.

But I did stay with it, for no other reason than that the concept was really inventive, and some of the jokes were pretty good. As the show develops, much of the moronic vulgarity morphs into lively and credible characterizations, a lot more common sense than anyone could expect from the horrid beginning, and - as hard as this may be to believe - there is a considerable amount of wisdom in the discussion of relationships, and men and women. The jokes are very, very good, and the actors are uniformly excellent. So first impressions tend to be not very accurate. I think the notion of the creators' was to show this male chauvinistic fog gradually lifting, but they badly miscalculated. I don't really blame any viewer that gave up after the first ten minutes.

But the bottom line is that I found the show inventive, funny, actually rather sensible, and worth the time. Eight stars just to lift it above the magic 7.0.

I had seen this show previewed and thought what a stupid show. Well thankfully I have Hulu plus. Wow, this show has had me laughing and remembering what it is like to try and pick up guys in the bar.

When you give this show a chance you will realize that it's the story of your bar life too! Right down to the crying girl in the bathroom, the just-out-of-a-relationship guy, the hot bartender, the guy that thinks he can get every woman and the friend that complains about everything only to realize that she is the problem. Be sure to give this show a chance because you will be glad you did!

Hilarious antics and true stories fly about! Love this show!

Every person who says this show is terrible just doesn't get it. It's not supposed to be some high brow nonsense, its fun, and cheesy and kinda cliché and tongue in cheek and THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT AWESOME. It is an interesting concept and is fun to watch the night pan out and learn more about these characters, however ridiculous they are. I do believe this is a show that is best watched in one/two/three sittings as opposed to once a week. Its on netflix so get on it. Just watch it and give it a chance; if you don't like it then you are a dowdy unpleasant person with no sense of fun. Or you just don't like it and that's cool too. Either way, I think it is excellent.

Alright let's begin with the fact that most of the reviews seem to be pretty negative for this show. I don't quite understand why...

If I could compare this show to anything I would say it's like a sitcom dedicated to Barney in 'How I met your mother'

People are quite capable of reading what the show is about so if you don't think it's for you then fine don't watch it but I personally enjoy seeing the interactions between people.

The character development and how they meet and interact with each other is quite enjoyable to watch.

I understand that it probably wouldn't sell to an older audience but I believe that it's believable to an extent and quite humorous.

Finally a fresh new format for a sitcom - and these do NOT come often. Yes there are no stars in it (remember when Friends, Cheers, Seinfeld, Curb, Taxi, Simpsons started????) and yes it's a little edgy (no edgier than Modern Family, just without the cheese), it's a show with a voice that dares to say this isn't for everyone. Some may be offended at the humor, but just because you're offended, it doesn't mean you're right. This is funny, funny, funny. One ep in and I can tell we will grow to know and love these characters week-on-week. We'll look forward to coming back to them each ep to see who makes it and who falls flat on their face in the game of love. Great job ABC!
