so good
18 November 2001 | by (Ontario, Canada) – See all my reviews

this show gets better by each episode. if you haven't ever seen an episode, just watch ONE, and you'll be hooked. and it's SO funny now that michael rappaport is now on it, he's so great. i really don't see ANY flaws what so ever in this show. it's saucy like how melrose place was, but it's so much more as well!!! it's grande ;)
