I started watching this bomb on Sunday, and was apalled at how silly and stupid it was. I will watch the one with Jorja, but that's it. Margaret Chou was as vile as usual, gawd she's awful. And the star Brooke whatever was so lame. I see "LIFETIME" cancelling this disaster soon. My opinion
I rarely go on these boards, but your "review" forces a response. I LOVED Drop Dead Diva, and I thought Cho (not "Chou") was great. I'd only seen her in stand-up comedy before, and I thought she did quite a good job in a real acting role. She was believable.
Though the premise of the show is a bit far-fetched, I thought it did an admirable job of making all of us suspend disbelief -- I *believed* that Brooke was simultaneously two people (or I believed that she felt as if she were). I thought the show touched on serious issues of women's bodies without resorting to preaching or melodrama. I was impressed with the show, as was my husband (who is one hard cookie to impress!). I totally disagree with you, and I hope Lifetime keeps the show going. I may have started watching because I'm a CSI fan (and thus interested in what Jorja does, and what Josh Berman -- writer for CSI and writer/producer I think for this -- does), but I'll stay with the show because it's good. I hope others give it a chance. :thumbsup:
