Hey Mochababe:

LOL at Eve being MIA in the funniest scenes. I'm trying to like this show, and it has it's moments, but I don't see it lasting long in its current format. I think Landry and Hooks will probably be able to get their own shows if they want them if this show goes down the drain.

I agree with what ya'll have said. Eve seems to be a little more comfortable with the role than she did when she first started, but she still comes off bland a lot of the time. JT is alright, but he also gets overshadowed by everyone else. I watch the show every week when it's not a rerun cause it's something for me to watch and it's pretty amusing mostly do to the supporting characters. Janie is funny and so is her husband I wish they would show more of him. Donovan is a funny character especially when he's playing off Brian Hook's Nick. Speaking of Nick, he and Janie are the funniest characters on the show imo. And Rita proves she's funny and not just eye candy. I wish they would hook up Rita and Nick cause their pairing would be a lot more interesting than Shelly and JT. I heard this show was originally supposed to be called The Opposite Sex, well I think they should have called it that and focused on the cast more as an ensemble than just focusing on Eve.

If this show happens to end, then I think they should do a show with Brian Hooks and Ali Landry or something with Natalie Desselle because they actually could hold their own sitcom.

I don't know if this show can run long enough to get into syndication (the average sitcom has to have 4 full seasons for syndication). I've seen some more epsiodes and Eve is a bit less stiff, but she's still being upstaged by the 4 supporting players. The funny thing is they could just as soon eliminate her and stick in Janie's husband and some new woman and the show wouldn't be much worse or better. It might even be better.

Eve's show next week is gonna be a hour & it's the season finale. I saw a commercial for the show & they showed Rita kissing Donovan. Rita was tellin Eve that it was just a kiss & it didn't mean nothin. I don't believe that. 2 people just don't kiss each other & it means nothin.
