Overall Rating: 8/10
Review: I truly loved this show, but I wish the ending had not been so dark. I think most of the songs could have been removed. The overall writing and plot were genius though! This was such a funny show to watch.
Which show/movie does the same idea but better? I'm not sure if there is another idea like this out there...I can't think of another plot where a woman schemes in order to try to get the man of her dreams.
Could this happen realistically? Yes, but I'm not sure if she would find a job right away, or if her law firm would be so relaxed in real life.
Can my kids watch this? Um...no. Maybe when they are like 17+. There is a lot of sexual content. The show is very explicit when talking about sex.
Explicit Content (Without Spoilers):
- Sexual: (8/10)
One person realizes he is attracted to guys and girls, so it shows their butts a lot. He sings about how great it is to be bisexual.
Someone mentions period-sex and sings a whole song about it.
People sing about how hot they are, and the characters are shown in underwear/lingerie.
Several characters sleep with one another and are shown in bed together.
There are a lot of make-out scenes.
Someone runs away with a professor at a college and has sex with them.
- Violence (6/10)
One person tries to commit suicide in a later season.
One person has a heart attack.
Someone has an abortion, but nothing is shown. It's only mentioned.
- Language (7/10)
The show is TV-MA partially because of this.
- Drug Use (5/10)
In a later season, one person sings about how great anti-depressants are after trying to kill herself with medication.
- Other Content:
There is a lot in the 3rd and 4th season of this show about mental illness and suicide. People try to kill themselves. The show definitely ends with a dark turn.
Side note: If you are having to cover your kids eyes for most of the movie, wouldn't it be better to watch a different one that they can actually watch?
