Filmed in Chicago

I love shows filmed in Chicago. The characters always live in apartments that would cost $3,000/month

Like Friends in NYC. How much would those apartments cost ITRW?

I'm hopeful they'll dial down the quirk and dial up the character development in coming eps. If not, even the endlessly adorable Zooey Descanel might not save it.

i agree. it reminds me a lot of that other show (don't know if it's still on and can't remember the network) called My Boys.
i was disappointed by the first episode, haven't watched the 2nd. but i liked the one guy, one of her roomies a lot, too. i think he's the bartender. the other two, meh. too stereotypical.

I do that all the time, shameless about it. I have sat through more than one God awful movie or TV show because I found the actress adorable and could not take my eyes off of her. Actually have watched a couple with the sound off they were so bad! {#Lol}

BTW totally agree with you on the lovely Ms Deschanel, I have been on to her for years. {#Hearteyes}

I've decided my liking the show has more to do with watching the "adorable Zooey" and not so much with the show itself.

Have one for me! {#Lol}

From the promos, this piece should be a good cautionary tale about what happens when so-called "Christians" are allowed to force sovereign nations to conform to their personal beliefs. For such an old subject, it seems to have a lot to say that applies directly to current events.

I can usually tell by the previews whether or not I will be interested. I try not to get involved with too many shows. Because of this, I have missed getting into some really good shows, like Breaking Bad.

When I lived by myself, I hardly had the tv on, but J is a junkie.

Hiate to admit it but I have the TV jones myself.

So you prefer to miss the first couple episodes that set forth the premise and decide to watch based on some one else's opinion.

The sign of a true independent thinker.

I guess I can understand not wanting to waste time on something that sucks but many times reviewers and I don't agree.

To each his own.

haven't seen the playboy club, don't have high hopes for it, though.

Neither did I, but the plot twists in the first episode will have me watching the next. If you ignore the titillating imagery and focus on the story line, it has everything a good mystery/suspense show needs.
