Pilot Review: Manhattan Love Story

Of the four new half hour shows I have tried on this autumn this is my third favorite. It is pretty far behind Selfie and A to Z but miles ahead of Mulaney in that I will still be watching it.

The first thing I noticed is that the lead male looks short. I know, I know, I’m a heightist. But I own that flaw. And granted, the lead female is a tall model in control of her angles making momma Tyra proud. I like him as a character though.

The mortician from Psych found work pretty quickly and I’m happy to see him. The rest of the supporting cast is somewhat lackluster. They need to begin to become necessary as individuals and not just as a blob plot device machine if I am going to stay invested in this show.

Give it a chance. The pacing is nice. And since the main couple is already together it might not be too long of a commitment.
