Sex and the City, for men (generalisation)!
16 November 2006
This show does for men what Sex and the City did for women that watched it. Alright, that's a sweeping generalisation, but there is an iota of truth in what I say. This show has all the ingredients that appeals to the modern heterosexual "bloke" or "lad" - flash cars, sex, hi tech gear, gorgeous women, fame, money, movies, music and frequent nonsensical discussions about hypothetical nonsensical things, as well as an element of brotherhood between the main parties. The four main characters (again similar to Sex and the City) are played with complete conviction, helped considerably with consistently sparkling scripts and dialogue. Everyone has a favourite, and mine simply has to be Johnny Drama, who's like the Samantha of this show.

It also has to be commended for utilising Jeremy Piven's magnificent facility for swearing. It's hard to find a guy that can swear as well as him, and I love the fact that Ari and the rest of them trade insults so casually yet get along so well. Let's face it, this show has some of the best swearing and made up swear words ever!

I love it. I can't stop watching it. You should watch it too.
