    We still miss Tuesday Night Bookclub. The show was very addictive and interesting to watch. We were just talking about it again the other day. Loved the newlyweds and the woman with the animals. It was really a good show.

    Show was not that bad. Better than the crap CBS has put out lately. Each of the women had an interesting situation they were living with...i know a lot of other women could to relate to something in each. Too bad it was canned so fast, it was getting quite interesting

    Awful.. so glad it's not going to be on anymore. I've lived in Scottsdale almost all my life, and they really gave the place a bad rap. This was the most unrealistic 'reality' show I've ever had the displeasure of watching.

    We enjoyed it...much better than the crap that's on replacing it. Hope it returns soon. Very real, very right on.

    Just found this site. Had to put my 2 cents in even though it's over. Too bad it's been cancelled ~I thought it was pretty good and was quite bummed it went off the air. I hope CBS reschedules it so we can all see how it went for the women. it sure is still getting a lot of chatter for a cancelled show.

    I really enjoyed this show. Even though these women are all differnet, I could relate to all of them, and I do believe that it is true, and not scripted! I hope that they will bring it back. If you get past the outside appearances and look at the real issues, you may find that you relate as well.

    Loved the show! I just heard it's off air now. That's awful and really unbelieveable. I would much rather watch these women go through "real" issues than a fictional dysfunctional sitcom!!! It's like watching a lifetime movie...and I love those too!!

    After watching for 10 min I couldn't take anymore and switched channels. Then I kept checking back to see if it was really as bad as I thought. Each time the answer was "Yes!".

    Its okay, last night was better than the first episode. The "Den Mother" is really funny, just being mother earth to the kids. Sara has personality and a good sense of humor. She seems real to me.

    All I can say is, CBS has GOT to be kidding! What pure, unadulterated drivel. And I find it hard to believe it is not scripted.

    I love this show. I grew up in Scottsdale and it's spot on! It's kind of weird that it's on CBS though... as it feels like an ABC show. I'm counting the minutes to Tues. to see this show again.

    Could this show get any worse? These women need a "reality check" not a "reality show".

    I vote 5 because Cris's is the only real person and her attempt to save the marriage is a 10 but the others are a 0

    I made the mistake of watching this godawful thing and still have a bad taste in my mouth. It was a cleansing experience to read what the critics said.

    Mediocre show to say the least. Hey! I didn't know it was reality. I thought it was scripted, and the newlywed woman......whatever her name is....she is such an -itch! She has a cute hotty for a hubby, so why would he stick around and put up with her attitude.

    The high quality production seem to be throwing veiwers off in buying into these women being real.

    Ugh! I used to be a stay-at-home mom, and I never even had time to complain about things like these women do! And as for Kirin--31??--I don't think so honey. They may be rich in money, but they are the most shallow, self-centered group of *itches to come down the pike in a long time! Shame on ALL of them. I will never watch again.

    I tuned in to this show only because I grew up in Phoenix and lived in Scottsdale for about 6 years after college...Wildy disappointed. I would have rated this show a 0 if it hadn't been for Mr. Butters!

    I watched this show because the critics said it was a great new show to watch. Well, they were wrong. This show is horrible. I found it really difficult to care about these women at all. Do not waste your time. I will not watch again. It's basically junk food for your soul. I feel sorry for these women. They should give away all their money and learn to be caring, down to earth human I watched this show because the critics said it was a great new show to watch. Well, they were wrong.

    Book club? Please. These Scottsdale, Ariz., women don't read. They whine, they shop, and they obsess over the way they look. [16 Jun 2006, p.71]
  2. "Book Club" is one of those "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" series. You know, the kind that promote themselves as giving unvarnished looks into real-life issues facing women in a variety of situations but that mostly exist to exploit them.
  3. One of the more awful projects to hit CBS prime time in years.
