While this show had its moments and did occasionally make me laugh, for the most part I found it frustrating and difficult to watch at times. The main female character is helpless and meek and completely unwilling to so much as speak up for herself, allowing herself to be easily influenced and exploited by almost every other character. Almost every single character in the show is completely self-interested and manipulative to an almost obscene level, and many of them have a tendency to cling to others who very clearly do not want them. There was not enough heart in the show to get away with the level of cruelty between characters, most of whom I found either frustrating, annoying, or just unbearably manipulative (oftentimes all three). Julia Davis's character is one of the most despicable television characters I think I've ever seen.
And while the ending of the first season was more or less satisfying, I found the second season beyond aggravating and completely unnecessary. The final two episodes should never have been made, and I cannot even express in words how much I absolutely HATED how the show ended. I wish it was possible to just erase the entire second season from my memory. All in all, I found the show to be far more frustrating than funny.
