It took me a moment to get around to watching this show. It is well written, well acted, raw and original. That is everything in a nutshell I feel makes for good entertainment. This show does not disappoint. It is fiction, of course, and some of the dialogue and scenes are pure Hollywood but no matter - it is serious entertainment for those of us who like to "people watch" as these characters come to life and get deeper with each episode.

I love this show because of the great cast who are so committed to the stories and to their characters. They do the most incredible job. True! The writers never get boring and deserve much praise as well. It would be hard to pick one favorite cast member or character because each one ultimately is a key component to the intelligent stories and to each other's lives. I realize it's just "made up" but it's good television in so many ways. Please - nobody leave the show :)

I loved this movie. I do not understand the low rating, the other comments by the so-called pros or anybody else who did not become riveted by Blake Lively's incredible acting job. This was not just another role done by a pretty woman, sans depth or story .... she was spectacular, absolutely spectacular. I am a huge fan of the vintage movies I grew up watching. I have seen them all ... the actresses who owned it and built up the great Hollywood list of legends. This role required Blake to transcend and transform - get very down and raw - and she maintained this throughout the film. Honestly - I haven't seen this level acting in a long, long time and not. I don't see it in her contemporaries ... she should have been accolades for the work she did in this movie. I give kudos to the other actors, incl. Jude Law, and to the writer, Mark Burnell, and the direction by Reed Morano was as spectacular and the scenery. I can't say enough about this movie. This was
