I gave this a try because I liked the movie with Hugh Grant, many years ago, and I LOVED Brandon Mychal Smith on "You're the Worst." (I will still attempt to watch anything he's in.)
I couldn't get past the first episode because, even though I enjoy the occasional rom-com, I'm not the Hallmark movie type. I write fiction for a living, and realize, "it's just fiction," so I try to go with the story, but I just couldn't with this one. I thought about elaborating with a review that contains spoilers, but I'll just leave it at, "if you like unrealistic Hallmark movies that make no sense, this is the show for you."

I had much higher hopes for this show, but each episode has left me disappointed. In short, they've all fallen flat. There's no substance. Although I love Alicia Silverstone, I'm not rooting for her character, because she isn't likable.
It feels like each episode was written by someone who's out of touch with what it means to be an "American Woman." This is a woman of privilege. If she can't afford the mortgage on her mansion, how 'bout moving to a cheaper house? Otherwise, why are we supposed to empathize? Most American women will never relate to this.
Also, is it just me, or is Alicia Silverstone's delivery too pedantic and slow? Has she always spoken this way, or is it supposed to reflect the character's background?
I can't recommend this show, which is sad because I love all of these actors. I hope to see them all again, somewhere else.
