Tell Me You Love Me - The Complete First Season (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love HBO shows so when I found this on sale for $19.99 I grabbed it. I wouldn't recommend paying more than about $30 for it - if I'd paid more I would have been very disappointed. I haven't had an experience with a show like this before - by the second episode I thought it was one of the best TV shows I'd ever seen, up there with "Six Feet Under". It was fascinating to see a very realistic view of four different relationships, shown very realistically, even including very real sex scenes. That somehow made the couples even more human. By about the seventh episode I got tired of the characters' slow, meandering everyday lives, and the whining. I started thinking the sex scenes were just interfering with the progress of the story, and I realized, it's difficult to maintain interest in very realistic lives when you're living one yourself every day. I guess I learned I enjoy more drama and excitement in a TV show than I realized.

Sex. Life. This is the story of three couples trying to stay afloat - and one woman's efforts to show them how to do it. HBO's newest adult drama series explores issues of intimacy - through the point of view of a 20-something couple, prenumpital concerns and fidelity are examined, while the series' 30-something couple confront their failed attempts to start a family, coping with the effects it has on their sex life. And after two kids and 12 years of marriage, a couple in their early 40s question why their love and devotion hasn't translated into physical intimacy in nearly a year. Tell Me You Love Me explores the telling, everyday moments that can make or break a couple's commitment to one another, both emotionally and physically.

The Mind of the Married Man - The Complete First Season (2001) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I didn't give this show much of a chance when it first came on but ended up watching a few and got totally hooked. I had missed much of the first season, so recently I bought the 2 DVD set.
I must say that this series has gotten many very negative reviews and only lasted two seasons, but one thing I didn't know till I got the DVDs and listened to Binder and Walgner talk about the show was that it premiered on 9/11/2001, it never had a hope. It was upstaged by the biggest event of the new century.
After watching the whole DVD series I can say that this show did have a lot of heart. This struggle for a married man (of which I am one) to remain happy and loyal when opportunity runs rampant in his life is one I can relate to. Mickey has it all, a good job, smart perky wife who he obviously loves, but he is constantly tempted and pushed into outside relationships by his friends, hot young assistant, and his own insecurity.
I think Binder did an effective job of getting us married men thinking about all the crap that goes around in our heads every day. I'm not saying the acting or writing were Emmy quality, but it was a good, intriguing show and should be recognised as such.
