    Just too hollow and weak characters. Reality TV does manipulative melodrama much better.

    Just out of curiosity, I tuned into this dog last night. I figured Courtney Cox as a hard driving magazine editor might be a nice twist and based on the previews, it appeared that she could pull it off successfully. But, not only was I disappointed byt a somewhat weak and fractured story line but was appalled at the unnecessary dialogue and oddly placed language (how many times can you Just out of curiosity, I tuned into this dog last night.

    The filming was superb but the show paints a black ugly picture of Hollywood. One I don't care to see. I don't enjoy watching people taking drugs ugh! Ian Hart was magnificient., award quality acting. Overall far too dark for me.

    This show was awful. I was so excited to watch but was extremely disapointed. Cox is miscast in this as she is unable to make me beleive that she could ever be this kind of domineering character. I really hated the weird squiggly captions that kept popping up on screen as well. A total waste of an hour.

    What an incredibly lousy TV show. It wasn't even mildly entertaining. I thought the scenes centered around the schizophrenic character were ridiculous. I gave the show it's chance - watched the entire pilot. I won't be giving it a second chance.

    Awful show. The cat part was awful. No one wants to see that. The show was full of sex, and drugs. Not my kind of show. I was excited for it to start but very dissapointed.

    Mean spirited, sadistic, badly acted crud that should be flushed, but would probably pollute the sewer. (I decided to go easy on the critique so as not to offend anybody.....)

    Reading a little trash now and then can be fun, but "Dirt" isn't merely trashy; it's just plain disposable. and bad acting. It needs to be canceled and dumped in the grabage.

    A piece of crap (or, in more relevant terms, "dirt") that takes itself way to seriously. It's desparate, dorky, and is in love with itself. Don't watch it.

    Although several characters are refugees from central casting, there is too much of an earnest streak running through "Dirt" to dismiss it as a breathless soap.

    Dirt is quick-moving but painfully solemn, somehow constituting a plodding romp. At their very best, the first three episodes play like bad Kubrick.

    An embarrassing dud that's both trashy and self-pitying.
