Mixed feelings. Generally fun to watch but the breaking of the 4th wall was annoying as hell! Possible deal breaker..

A bit cheesy sometimes, but quite alright.

Sexed up, funny, and just enough drama to keep it moving. Definitely fits into that Showtime lineup with Shameless and Californication.

I could do without Don Cheadle having to talk to the camera all the time, but other than that, it was pretty decent.

If you like Californication, this has roughly the same type of humor. The shows aren't that similar storywise, but they still feel like they are written by the same person.
