Has anyone else seen this show? It is hilarious? I wonder if it is written by a man or woman... It is like the man version of "Sex and the City."

4 Guys and their dating/sex relationship stories... One is recently seperated and doesn't understand dating in the twentyfirst century.. Another is divorced but having an FWB with his ex wife... (and getting attached i might add, but she isnt). Another is married with a mistress who has now become better friends with his wife than him... And the other is married, but she's very controlling.

FUNNY show! But does it really reflect what real men think, i wonder? BTW all the men are CEO who make lots of money... and they all look like they are 38 or older.

So, who else is watching this show.. it comes on after Grey's Anatomy.

I have watched part of it last week and this. Unfortunately but Thursday I am usually really beat and fall asleep by 10:30. I started watching it but fell asleep only to wake up when it was just about over, turn it off and drag myself to bed.

I just checked the show bio on ABC's website... It is written by a man. The writer/show producer says it is a show about the man's perspective of woman and relationships. But with loads of comedy...

Like in the first episode, one guy is in a therapy session with his wife and his mistress sends him a text that reads "i miss your penis"

I was rolling.. but it gave me a text message idea. LOL.

I love the show, was hooked after the first episode. Granted, I don't watch much television, so I am pretty easy to please. :-)


Much of the appeal to me is the amount of cheating going on in the show, because I myself am coming out of an affair (Hence why I am now on the single mothers boards. :-) ).


The whole conversation Duncan had with his ex-wife in last week's episode about why they work better now divorced floored me, since that is exactly what an affair is.


And yes, it is quite funny too. And the amounts of money these guys toss around is ludicrous.
