I really enjoyed this show. It had just the right amount of quirkiness. If you all remember the show Northern Exposure from some years ago, and enjoyed it, then this may just be the show for you. I watched the pilot show as well as tonite's episode also and recommend it to anyone looking for some 'stay at home' Friday nite entertainment! The show is also filled with great music by K.T. Tunstall and other alternative type musicians. Given time I think that this will end up being an award winning series as each character is allowed to develop. I'm hoping that others will find it as amusing as I do so that the series is picked up for a full season.

I find the phrase "Chick Flick" extremely offensive and insulting but the caveman who posted it obviously hasn't given this show a chance. Shows entertain us is all. I can watch a show and I don't "count" the number of whites, blacks, native Americans, Latins,Asians, etc, it dosen't matter to me. People who do that are just instigating trouble. I don't like the fact that Sarah is a prostitute, that is unnecessary, but the only similarity to Northern Exposure which was a great show is that it also is in Alaska. Its a good show with a mix of comedy and drama. Each character adds his/her flavor and passion to the show and is unique and not a clone of other shows. I hope it stays around a long time. To those who hate it? CHANGE THE CHANNEL!
The only people who don't seem to like this show are those who've lived in Alaska and their opinions are based on quibbles as to the 'reality' of the scripts. Come on, do you actually expect this to be 100% realistic? It's television, it's a comedy (or 'dramady', as they are saying these days), why not look past the plot devices to enjoy the fabulous cast and acting, refreshingly non-violent and funny situations, beautiful scenery, etc. etc.? This is light-hearted and fun, even New Yorkers are caricatured, not just Alaska. You could pick apart any show these days if you were a specialist in crime-prevention, medicine, suburban housewives... most shows condense the truth in some way.
One unique plus for 'Men in Trees' is that they are showing non-stereotypical male attitudes (bartender, for instance), which adds lots of potential. I look forward to seeing where they're going with this, keep this show around!
By the way, let's be fair, they did explain the skunk was 'way out of range', (possibly transported there?), that's why they were postering and trying to find it before winter sets in.

I have been an Anne Heche fan since her soap days when she played twins Vicky and Marly on Another World. Starting the first episode I fully expected that the show never really stood a chance, and ended it delightfully surprised. I also wondered where are all the native people, but I wouldn't say it ruined the show for me. To date I have watched every aired episode and laughed out loud every time. If this show is given a fair chance I'm positive it will become a favorite of TV viewers. By the way my laughing also drew my husbands attention, and last night he watched with me. His opinion was "not half bad" (high praise from him). My mother did not care for the pilot, but stuck to it the next week and has been drawn in. I would tell anyone if you give it a chance you will fall in love with the town and its quirky characters!
This does remind me of my time in Alaska as a New York City woman facing a surprising environment and interesting people and flora and fauna. I did find it believable except for the fact that no one consummates in this pilot. It would have been warmer if they actually had sex but I guess it would not have passed the "censor". And now we get to wonder what will happen next. The acting is sweet and energetic and it has both a funny and pathetic twist. I was left wanting to return to Alaska and to return to the next episode of this cute family show. I loved the little touches, especially her slapstick antics, her high heels, and the confusion of a new environment way over her head. And now there are plenty of lessons to be learned..By the way, I emailed my Alaskan friend and told him to check it out.
