Trivia:

In an interview with "The A.V. Club", Adam Scott said that his contract for this show went very specifically into what kind of and how much nudity he would have to show. He also said that while they were negotiating the contract, the show-runners wanted him to agree to full-frontal nudity, but when he balked at that, they created a prosthetic penis that he had to wear and his character's wife (played by 'Sonya Walger') had to handle. It was rigged to "ejaculate" by having a prop man hiding behind a couch to pump hair conditioner through it.

This show is strong, interesting, and subtly funny

I found this show to be revealing and honest and fun. I personally thought that it was hysterical....in a quiet, subdued way. Its real, and the humor comes from the truth....or revealing the truth or something.

What i love most about this show is that i can sit back and watch the show, and feel like I'm learning about my own mind....how my thinking can be irrational even though I've convinced myself I'm right.

the acting ROCKS! The writing is spot on....i feel like each character is different, and reacts differently...when i often feel like every character on TV is the same.

The sex is not nearly as explicit as people said it was, but it definitely can throw you out of the show.

the season finale left you hanging....and it is going to be fun to return to in the fall
