Pretty sure this show has one main flaw.


It's title. The title is just awful, and hardly fitting for the show. I just started watching it on Netflix and wasn't sure why. I just figured it was safe assumption that any show with this title would be awful. surprisingly, its quite good. The show my have stood a chance with a better title. and if it weren't on ABC.

EVERY SHOW with a fake swear word fails.

It's funny you say that because I avoided it for the same reason, but this show is hilarious.

reply

I didn't watch the show when it was on tv because of the title. Then I watched it and loved it.

It was quite the contrary in my case. The title is what drew me in. The best episode was the pilot and it is understandable why the ratings plummeted after that.

I must have been researching Kristyn Ritter, next thing there is this awesome comical title which drew me in, yelling out almost that it has serious attitude.

Watched pilot on DVD now, loved it, looking forward to rest, but am dismayed by RussianDoll's ominous opinion that the show peaked with the pilot.

reply

Exactly. The title sounds very "low rent" so that turned off a lot of people I am sure.

reply

I was actually attracted to the show because of the title. I didn't find it "low rent" because there's a mild swear word, I was mostly drawn to the show because the title is so unusual... and wordy. But not in a bad way.

I loved the show.

I agree that it might have done better if it had been called something else.

Never Ever Trust Chloe


I think either of these might have been good. They both give the flavour they were going for without being quite so ridiculously unconventional.
