Great fun, really watchable. There is nothing else like it, before or since.
It's funny, fast paced, great characters, fun and light hearted while still dealing with interesting political and sociological issues. Great show all round and a real shame it got cancelled after 2 series.
It had the usual TV moment of loads of naked women, typically disappointing in a show about an erotica mag for women. But it was one or two episodes. The rest of the series is one of the few Hollywood shows that actually isn't exploitative, patronising, stereotyped or depressing in its depiction of women. There are a few more women than usual working on the show, which helps I'm sure.

Really watchable. Good fun, humour, action, better written dialogue than most. Clever plots. Main character is skilled and clever and good at lots of things, which usually comes across as unrealistic and a bit obnoxious, but here it's done with humour and not pretentious, so it works for me.
Fiona's Irish accent is awful. Really, really bad. The pouting is really off putting too, the director has a lot to answer for there.
It's dated badly. For every one female speaking part there's a dozen male speaking parts and a dozen young, skinny white girls in bikinis. Because they're the only people who go to the beach in Miami. They could at least have employed some fit young male actors in swimsuits, but this obviously didn't occur to them.

Completely unnecessary boob flashing scene to start the show off. Hollywood creepers were running the show obviously. To be fair, that's the only sexual exploitative scene I've watched so far. Started off by pissing me off and creeping me out, not good. But I gave it a chance. It's lighthearted, not at all realistic. There's humour, but it mostly didn't really land, and I'm struggling to understand the accents. Characters are interesting if not exactly likeable. Cheesy music is very annoying. Found it a bit slow at times. It's OK, but wasn't enough to hold my interest through the whole first series.
