The lead characters for whom we're supposed to root in Manhattan Love Story feel as slapped together as people stranded at a speed-dating event.
-
For most of the first two episodes, Tipton ... seems like a prisoner of the crummy show around her, while "Greek" alum McDorman has a character no actor could make likable.
-
In addition to being nowhere near as adorable as it thinks it is, Manhattan Love Story is also structurally off. The show relies very heavily on Peter and Dana's voice-overs, which is a real mistake.
-
Manhattan Love Story is simply an unfunny study in tired male/female stereotypes.
-
Its two love-crossed leads are a pair of characters that the audience, at least after two episodes, will have no interest in seeing get together.... The script here is a constant barrage of inner monologue turned narration, most of it centered on how love and life is different in the Big Apple, without ever making that key element of the show feel genuine.
-
Five minutes of their witless, charmless, inane babbling, and what you'll be thinking is likely to be unprintable in a family publication.
-
It’s sexist and stupid and shows no signs of potential, other than becoming more sexist, stupid and annoying as the weeks roll by.
-
This annoying show is not quite as drenched in dumb and/or sexist assumptions as "Mixology," but that is the lowest possible bar to clear.
-
This device [hear everything Dana and her potential beau Peter are thinking] grows old within the first minute. By the end of a half-hour, it's unbearable. It would help if Peter weren't such a boor, or Dana such a simp.
