In all seriousness, I can't help but think that the main reason so many people are hating on this show is because they see it as nothing more that a silly Sex and the City rip-off that can never compare
Well, I have the advantage in that I've never seen Sex and the City or any of these other shows being mentioned. Which probably gives me a pretty unbiased opinion.
This show was just plain terrible. I saw no redeeming value in a woman who meets a nice guy; proceeds to stereotype him as gay based off her gay friend's unfounded opinion and a few overexadderated observations with nothing inherently wrong with them; and break up with him over his answering machine without even having the nerve to approach him and ask him about her concerns.
So what if he has a spray-on tan? That doesn't make him a crossdresser, he just doesn't have time to go a beach or tanning salon, or maybe he doesn't want to.
So what if he doesn't feel the need to sleep with or kiss her right away? Why does that have to be a problem? There's nothing wrong with a abstaning from that if one feels it's a wise decision. And it contradicts with his moral values, which Emily would have found out if she'd had the gall to ask him.
So what if he practices a martial art that seems a little touchy-feely? It's just a contact sport (is it even a real martial art?).
As far as I'm concerned, it had no substance, no intelligence, no value. I'm glad to see it go.
