Since the debut of new sitcoms this fall, this has to be my favourite. Despite having a typical story line - love, relationships, dating, single-life, uncertainty etc, the characters do it well and bring much life to the show. Analeigh Tipton can actually act. And that's enough to drive this show toward a good direction. Her sweet girl next-door, awkward personality relates to many young ladies, myself included. Some of the typical features of the show annoys me slightly, but it's overshadowed by the two main characters. The supporting characters seem miss matched and have close to zero chemistry. But it's both Dana and Peter whom we're keen to see. However the only way this show will succeed is character development and little bit more background for viewers to understand the characters better. What works though, is the 6-degree-seperation in how everyone seems to be related to one another, but still character development has to be added and needs to be written well, so this little gem will take off. I've read that it's likely to be canceled and I'd be disappointed if it were true. It's charming, funny, no-so-fresh, light hearted and just the right kinda show you want to see to have a tingly feel good sensation after a heavy day.
