I was surprised at the terrible reviews this show has gotten. It's definitely not on par with the best of British comedies, but there is still a life and charm in this little gem.
Perhaps because there were so few episodes, the show never did have the opportunity to find its legs. However, the performances were wonderful, with Raquel Cassidy and Zita Sitar rising to the top and stealing every scene they were in. The show would have benefited from beefing up the office scenes, which is where it was truly funny, and leaving behind the useless ex-boyfriend drama. It certainly missed an opportunity.to be a smart commentary about office dynamics, especially in the expectations women (both at an executive and non-executive level) must endure compared to their male counterparts. .Still, the show had some hysterically funny moments and deserves much better than the reviewers here would suggest.
