    The humor is fast and often beer-related.

    Fitfully funny, there's undeniable energy but also obvious limitations to this approach, which perhaps explains each half-hour's segmentation into back-to-back 11-minute episodes.

    Secret Girlfriend could add up to something worthwhile, with more of that kind of elliptical character revelation and fewer generic dirty-boy adventures. Ultimately, I want to know more about “you,’’ not them.

    Secret Girlfriend feels like it never aspires to be more than a leaf blowing past us in the wind.

    Secret Girlfriend is just too clumsy, and not funny enough. Part of the problem is the format.

    The acting is terrible, the crude dudespeak unfunny; perfect only for fans of everything in soft-core porn flicks but the sex scenes.

    I don't know about you guys, but i thought Secret Girlfriend was a great show with great humor. The show made me laugh and the I don't know about you guys, but i thought Secret Girlfriend was a great show with great humor. The show made me laugh and the "chemistry" you have with Jessica is believable. Obviously not everyone likes this kind of humor but come on, just let go of all your thoughts and watch this show. Secret Girlfriend is a simple fresh concept of a show. I personally like the first person perspective also, i don't know why people dislike it so much. I think all the haters out there think they are either too "mature" or "educated". Secret Girlfriend is an awesome entertaining show!… Full Review »
