    The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

    Avoiding this show was difficult during its only season but fortunately it was canceled before this mess could go on for years. With two irritating and very unfunny lead actors portraying unlikable characters, this terrible "comedy" had nothing going for it. Infantile humor was sprinkled through poorly written episodes every week and it was downright painful to watch. After two of these miserable experiences, it was essential to stop watching and it was lucky many others had the same reaction of utter revulsion. Otherwise, there would be a needless, unpleasant, vapid, insipid, and awful show polluting the USA network. The track record of that network has been superb, especially Law and Order: Criminal Intent and Psych. This particular garbage was an aberration and isn't likely to be repeated.

    I...I just don't know what to say. I thought the show was absolutely awesome. I have a feeling it has to be the shoddy marketing which killed it's numbers. Two million an episode, seriously? This show deserved four, five times that amount. I wonder whether it's the case that people didn't understand the counselling wasn't due to them being "intimate" it was just counselling for their police relationship.I loved the characters, the story, the acting, the plot...ab.so.lutely everything about it.There is a special place in hell reserved for whoever cancelled this.I am a sad sad man, RIP Common law. I wish all the great actors/actresses in it the best of luck. I will always hoping for a resurrection....fingers crossed.

    There's not a lot of great television these days. It feels like everything is "reality" TV, getting worse and worse, and farther from reality.It's nice to finally see a show being creative AND entertaining. Another reviewer mentioned that the concept of couples therapy isn't realistic in this environment and it would never happen in real life. Welcome to television! Nothing on it is real, that's why it's entertaining. It's called the "suspension of disbelief." I learned that from Howard Stern. Anyway. The only thing that SHOULD be real on TV is the News, and hopefully, one day it will be real again.The couples therapy is a funny take on the action/dramedy dynamic seen in Analyze This!, The Sopranos, etc... The "couples" aspect of it is a nice twist, and the characters/actors play off of each other very well. The show started off well and has gotten even better as the episodes develop. I'm looking forward to seeing more episodes as this show continues.

    Don't plan to include spoilers, but I always check the box just in case.For anyone who's familiar with USA shows, let me first say that these guys are NOT like Shawn and Gus. I've seen that comparison, and the dynamics are way different. Yes, it's a buddy detective show, but that's it. Anyway, we're three episodes in, and while the cases aren't all that spectacular, they haven't been super-predictable either. The cases aren't really the point. The relationship btwn Wes and Travis is. Also, the extended dynamics btwn Wes and his ex-wife Alex, and Travis and his many exes. Ealy and Kole work really well together, and I thoroughly enjoy the therapy scenes (and all the familiar faces in them!)I look forward to this show on Fridays.
