The Newlyweds premiere show is pretty engaging--especially without the fake fights and forced drama.
-
The sincerity of the enterprise is in inverse proportion to its fun. [13 May 2013, p.49]
-
At least in the early stages, though, the show feels reasonably legitimate, and introduces us to characters who are neither appalling nor boring.
-
Instead of mining the opportunity to expand its view of a meaty topic, Newlyweds falls back on the sort of bad habits that can ruin a relationship (made-for-TV or otherwise), and far from being fabulous in its design, has instead recycled Bravo’s same old pattern.
-
Spontaneity is scripted; hopes and dreams are meant to be crushed; the woeful are exalted; characters are unsympathetic.
