Love Bites is an anthology series that explores how complicated, crazy, and sometimes even funny love can really be. Each episode has three different love stories with its own separate characters and themes. These stories also are meant to take place around the same time and are often shown overlapping one another. While each story is unique in its own way, there are three main characters that tie the show together. They are the happily married couple Judd and Colleen and a surrogate mother named Annie. It only ran for one season, and there are only 8 episodes. So the question is, is it any good? And the answer is sometimes. Love Bites is a mixed bag as some of the storylines are cute and funny, and some just don't work. For example, in Episode 6 there is a cute story with Anna Camp about a man who loses his girlfriend to his favorite baseball player and must fight to re-win her love. I loved it and thought it was super cute and funny. In the same episode, a couple is buying a house only to find out the wife had hooked up with the owner in the past. This story tried too hard to be funny and was just awkward. That's kind of how all the episodes are. The show is somewhat edgy, but it was also made for TV, so there is nothing too far out there in it. For the most part, it still feels relevant, but there are defiantly parts of it that feel dated now. I also thought that the show's central characters weren't that interesting or compelling and that their parts were always the least interesting part of the show. I think it might have had better luck if it had better characters that tied it all together. I will say that they managed to pack a lot of big names into the show for a small show, such as Anna Camp, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Keegan-Michael Key, and Skylar Austin, to name a few. There are also think the show would've thought it. All in all, though, it was a fun little show to binge.
