Nicole When I saw the first episode, I didn't feel that connection with the character Megan, she was just too plain. It's not like in other shows that you can see that the character it's going through something and you wanna know or that "oh by the way she acts you can tell she's like this and I wanna know why." Same when she got together with Kyle, too boring. it doesn't have that spark, connection, chemistry. The roles don't fit the actors very well either. For example, the show "Famous in Love" it's about Hollywood too and becoming and actress etc, the actors have chemistry, it is interesting, some other things are going on with other characters, and it makes sense, also very important, the roles fit the actors. It is no comfortable to watch.

atlasmb Kyle West is an actor whose name can turn (almost) any film into a box office success. He meets a young wannabe actress, Megan Morrison, not long after he is left at the altar. She finds herself similarly at the end of a relationship.They hookup rather quickly and before she knows it, he suggests marriage. But the offer comes through agents and appears to be sponsored by West's agent--played by Michael Vartan--who is also guru, puppeteer and fixer to the star. Lurking behind it all is the Institute of the Higher Mind, a cult-like organization with an image to protect.If much of this sounds patterned after the life of Tom Cruise, it may be.The show touches on issues like celebrity privacy, how the film industry treats women, and creating your own destiny. A great deal of its appeal depends upon how much the viewer enjoys the main characters and the actors who play them.Three episodes in, the plot is somewhat predictable. Will it tell a story with emotional depth or will it be a soap opera piece, putting its caricatures through the usual moves?

Ed-Shullivan Yes, I read the preliminary reports that The Arrangement is loosely based on A star actor Tom Cruise and D star actress Katie Holmes pre-arranged relationship and my opinion still has not changed. I have zero interest in how this ghost actor Kyle West (Josh Henderson) and his paid for wife Megan Morrison (Christine Evangelista) initially met and then married. I just don't think there is a large enough audience, nor a sustainable audience that want to see a bunch of what look like teenage girls (not starving artist real women) trying to become Hollywood actresses and land a rich stud boyfriend by wearing skimpy clothes and partying with any and all bad boys. I really did try and give this series a chance but puh...leeeese gag me with a spoon.I never did enjoy the soap opera theme and if it walks like a soap opera, and talks like a soap opera than it must be a soap opera. I think I will pass and I think you will too.I give it a 2 out of 10 rating

amandamichelle74 Saw the male lead on the Wendy Williams Show. Wendy asked if it was based on how TomKat got together. And it is loosely based on it. Really corny but entertaining. Hoping it gets better. We all know how it turns out. The Megan character is very likable so far. And Josh Henderson is doing a good job with the material. I hope it gets better as the story unfolds.
