... View MoreA bit overrated, but still an amazing film
... View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
... View MoreWhen I saw the previews for this I was hesitant. All in all it didn't seem overly appealing, but a night with nothing else on and I gave in. I've seen the first three episodes so far and I can say this show has struck me with it's arrow. It's very cute and has it's own wonderful little quirks. Every week I feel like I'm sitting down to a mini-romantic comedy from the comfort of my own home. The characters are great, the story lines are those perfectly constructed, cliché, feel good, plots that make the romantic comedies of today so endearing. Not to mention the great chemistry that Claire and "Trevor" share.It's unfortunate that it's not getting the ratings that ABC likes from their shows. They've given up a lot of good ones all because they didn't hit home from the start. Here's hoping Cupid picks up and we can at least see a second season from it.
... View MoreThis is your general rom com, but the casting of Bobby Cannavale was a great choice, because his sweet smile, general naive charm and gorgeous face really liven this show up. The rest of the regular cast is nothing spectacular, but the guest stars of the couples "Cupid" pairs each week seem to be above the average for TV these days.I'd like to see it delve a little deeper into issues, both of the romantic nature and of mental disorders. I think this show could really touch people if it takes itself a little more seriously.I'd also like to point out that this is a great show with a fantasy element, yet there are no special effects of any kind. It focuses on the relationships (I'm talking to you, Heroes.).All in all, I watch it on abc.com every week, but I don't make time to watch it live like I do Chuck.
