As above. I don't know why, but I've found myself watching three consecutive episodes of this show and not because I find it particularly good or entertaining, but because it airs right before my favourite (and only) show. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.Furthermore, I am completely convinced Related will be cancelled sometime next year, mostly because Laura Breckenridge is one of the worst actresses I have ever seen in TV history. She is a squeaky little mouse that overacts and whose voice is so high-pitched I am occasionally forced to change the channel momentarily to save myself the embarrassment and headache.Lizzy Caplan (from Mean Girls) also overacts, but she has comic talent, so it often works for her. I love Jennifer Esposito and think she is the light of this show, but very rarely does she succeed comically. The cast are good-looking enough, but this detracts from any realism the show was aiming for.Related is not witty; it is not original; it is not well-acted. The creators are the people behind Sex and the City and Friends, but Related lacks the edge and originality of the former and the comedy and dynamics of the latter.

This show is just so much more then I thought it would be. I was half-expecting another drama that would get boring in a few weeks, but I found myself wanted to watch more of Related. The character Ginny played by Jennifer Esposito is a little annoying sometimes but keeps up with the others when it counts. The character Anne however has WAY to much drama in her life, as wrong as it was to see her hook up with a college guy, couldn't help myself from thinking "good for you". Marjee is by far my favorite, she's free spirited and actually really funny to watch, she has a great character and I personally believe that Lizzy Caplan is a good actress. Rose's character has begun to blossom and I think will slowly but surely be more enjoyable to watch. And to finish, who DOESN'T love a cute British man trying to live a life with a crazy wife and her three CRAZY sisters. "Related" is actually really funny and entertaining. If you haven't given it a shot yet, I strongly suggest you do.

Come on who wouldn't like this show (other then men)? I think it's a delight. 4 different sisters with 4 separate lives who are best friends and worst enemies. Sound's like a chick flick hey? oh well. Why not? It's good! My favorite is Ginny. She's picture perfect but shows her insecurities and her sensitivity in the show a lot. She is the symbol of women everywhere really. Then there's Anne, the sweet one who is the most responsible. Then Marjee, The crazy little party girl who needs to grow up. Then the actress, Rose. She the youngest and most naive one. These four clash with each other but yet they wouldn't have it anyother way. It's just a cute show. Don't cancel this one either TV!!!!!!!

I didn't see this show advertised. I didn't know it was from the creators of Sex and the City and Friends. I just happened to flick to the channel. It wasn't the pilot, it was about 4 or 5 episodes in. And it was entertaining! Its funny and cute and I think it has a lot of potential. Maybe the first episode wasn't that great, but most series start off slowly. Friends and SATC were much better by the end than they were in their first seasons. So no, I haven't seen the first few episodes, but I'm watching every week now. All I'm saying is to give Related a chance. Every episode has at least a few great moments and it'll only get better with age. Go in with no expectations and enjoy!
