I love this show!! Critics may say whatever they want they gotta watch all episodes to truly understand why we love it sooo much. So many different characters and storylines comdramedy right??

Finally - good, clean, intelligent, fun. Very talented cast. Characters are believable. I really enjoy Brooke’s “model” delivery and occasional “brains” bewilderment. I generally avoid depressing court tv but this one’s moral topics are light and sans funky graphic images. I’ll be upset if they take this one off the air.

Recently the Drop Dead Diva begins its story, and I have to say I love this soap opera. It might be another Friends and it is certainly more wonderful than the Prison Break for women. At first I just think, God, if I came to that situation, I would like suicide rather than living in that fat ugly body. At least, Deb is slim, but Jane is huge. I bet that Jane could not even see her feet. But as the story goes, I found that Jane is cuter than Deb. She is helpful and smarter. She knows more than Deb and is more helpful than Deb. If Deb reborn in her own body, she might just become a Price Raising model, but Jane could help so many people out from the trouble. In my eyes, Deb is the shining rubber wristband, you could wear it to the bar or to the ball. It is sparkling in the dark, but outside of these places, it could be useless. But Jane is the classical silver wristband which you could wear it to anywhere. If she is slim enough, she could go to the bar or disco as Deb. Then this soap play gives us a question, what is more important to a female, the good-looking or the clever mind? Deb and Jane are the two opposite side, one is for the good-looking, and the other is with wisdom. There is no intermediate place. If I just want to be a lucky woman, I would choose the good-looking, with pretty face, you could get more help from the strangers----- it is the result of one research. But if I want to be helpful to others, I would like to be Jane, who is smart and warm-hearted; she does so many volunteer works and helps so many people. What about you? What is your choice?

I'm hooked on this show. I am enjoying the good story lines. Missed Fred alot when he wasn't in the episodes. So glad Fred is back. Great acting from April Bowly, Margaret Cho, Brooke Elliott & Ben Feldman. Hope this show stays on the air! Good script writing. I still hope that Grason will fall for Brooke's character.

Love the show but it's not the same without the guardian angel! Time to bring him back!
