ElizabethH.Jul 23, 2009The cast is attractive, and that is about the only redeeming quality of this show that is filled with cliches about gender relationships and a woman's body image.

TedHJul 28, 2009Silly premise. I fail to see how this can be the basis for a lasting series. Really goes nowhere. Look elsewhere for your summer entertainment.

Nov 28, 2017The show is cute and I like the actresses. April Bowlby is so funny. The only thing I find irritating is the platitudes about being big & overweight. They could have made the show a bit smarter and less predictable that way.

As Deb-inside-Jane, Elliott does a great job portraying pathos, absurd disappointment, and wide-eyed discovery. She’s far more interesting to watch than the other characters.
-
Despite all this talent and potential, stereotypes about body image--fat and skinny--are layered on so thick that it's hard to see this show as changing anyone's minds.
-
Berman produces a deft juggling trick of heart and humor, balancing Deb's shallowness with some solid common sense and Jane's inadequate self-esteem with kindness and legal brilliance.
