Client List is generally quite fun, whether one chooses to laugh with or at it. Much of that is thanks to Hewitt, who manages to be somewhat relatable.

Get on The Client List only to see some ripped abs; everything else is nonsense.

Love you're show-cant believe the way the way it ended Sunday the tenth. Yet, that means the last show of the season is going to be a thriller. Can't wait to see it, I will have my snacks and popcorn ready. I rate it a ten.

She's maybe-sorta a prostitute but the show's tone is light, frothy and downright sentimental when Riley gives emotional support to her male clients.

This is ultra-soft porn--softer than Charmin, softer than lingerie ads.

Okay, delicious trash, perhaps. But still, trash.

After watching two episodes, I'll admit to being mildly curious about what happened to Riley's husband. But I can't bring myself to sit through more of this silliness to find out if there's a happy ending.

Love Hewitt goes for soft, cozy sentiment. [16 Apr 2012, p.53]

This show is moderately interesting and worth watching-if you've got the time to spare. The cast of characters spice things up just enough to keep things from becoming run of the mill or boring. While it's not my "must see" show, Hewitt's ability to portray her character in a way that one can relate to, is spot on and I keep waiting/hoping for her character to get it on with the hottie brother in law.

I honestly never thought about watching this series until I saw Colin Egglesfield was starring in it (I've pretty much been in love with him since his days on AMC). I gave it a shot, not expecting much but I have to say I am enjoying it thus far. While I'm not crazy in love with the idea of a single mother working at a massage spa that gives a little something extra, I admire the single mother (with two children) who will do anything to support and keep her family together. However, the girly side of me is waiting for something to spark between Riley & her brother-in-law, Evan.

It's fun cheese. Yes, I hit the fast-forward button on the old remote during the mom-talking-to-her-kids sequences which are gratuitously included to balance out the suggested happy endings. I hope that Sybil Sheppard spices up her role a bit. And Love-Hewitt's Texas accent is so bad it's good. I just hope that the show ratchets up the camp and goes to classic Melrose Place lengths to hook the viewer.
