Mad love

Ben Parr (Jason Biggs) falls for Kate Swanson (Sarah Chalke). It's a simple boy meets girl except they bring their best friends into the relationship.

I love Jason Biggs from his movie roles, and I love Sarah Chalke from Scrubs. So I understand why putting them together as a couple makes great TV sense. But for whatever reason, they just don't have enough chemistry together as a couple. They also have two of my favorite actors in Judy Greer and Tyler Labine as each person's best friends. Judy and Tyler have a love-hate relationship, and actually have more chemistry than the leads. The lead pairing is too bland but I like the under-card.

I just finished watching the pilot of this series and i must say i found it entertaining. It certainly has a "How I Met your Mother" kinda feeling maybe a bit too much and some of the jokes were predictable, but at the end i found myself thinking that i would watch the next one if i had it right now. And that's what comedy shows should do. Entairtain you for 30 minutes. Since that's the case here, I'd say this shows meets my expectations.

I also happen to be a huge fan of Sarah Chalke and Judy Greer and I would love to see more of them in this show. Labine and Biggs are doing a good job as well and this quartet seems to have some chemistry. Looking forward for some more.

Well... the pilot is the worst episode till now, and we already get to see 4! So, if you're in doubt, don't see the reviews from people who just saw the 1st one, because it gets so much better, and by 4th episode I was already laughing hard with some moments, definitely the best till now and a great episode overall!

The pilot kind of gets the feeling of How I Met Your Mother, and I think it was intended that way, but the next episodes are definitely different and much better, and the feeling completely disappears. Another great thing is that the characters turns out much more likable and believable.

So, my recommendation is: please don't discard the series just because of the pilot, because that is the worst episode at all levels, and the others are so much better!

Mad Love is entertaining enough, but if you're looking for the next Friends, or even How I Met Your Mother, then you might be disappointed. The show really does seem to be HIMYM "Light", less characters but the characters have the same types of personalities. Also, I think most of the cast has appeared on HIMYM at some point in time.

I really didn't have any expectations for the show, especially considering that I only made it through 2 minutes of the awful Traffic Lights on Fox. But about 3 minutes into Mad Love, I found myself chuckling a few times and before I knew it, the show was over and I had laughed quite a bit. Jason Biggs and Sarah Chalke are the stars of the show and are good, not great, but I was more impressed with the chemistry between Judy Greer and Tyler Labine. I'm a huge fan of Greer and liked Labine on Reaper, but he got stuck on that awful Sons of Tucson(what's with Fox and their awful shows?), so I'm happy to see he got a gig that might lead to something.

Who knows if this show will make it, but as I said in the headline, its better than Rules of Engagement, so much better, so I hope it does replace it for good.

I absolutely love this show!!! It makes me laugh every time I watch it!! The pilot started off a little rusty but it's gained great momentum!! This show has been compared to How I Met Your Mother which is just wrong I love HIMYM and there is some similar feel to it but where would HIMYM be without Friends!! Every show takes tidbits from other shows it's just how things work! Where would Family Guy be without The Simpsons or the constant remakes of old TV shows it's the circle of life!! Okay I'm getting side tracked here....Mad Love is a light romantic comedy with some crude humour, which let's admit everyone loves!! It's a little obvious as to where the storyline is heading but the journey is still fun to watch!! It's also great to see actors we haven't seen in a while Jason Biggs(American Pie), Sarah Chalke (Rosanne, Scrubs), Judy Greer(Arrested Development, 13 Going on 30), and Tyler Labaine(Reaper, Breaker High). I'm hoping Mad Love will get picked up for another season but I do recommend a different time slot. I think airing right after HIMYM hinders peoples likability of the show, too judgemental! Out of all the shows that have premiered recently this one is by far the best!!!
