...it could be worse -- like what happens to these couples. Since I saw the poor reviews, I got curious as to how bad this series was. To my utter surprise, I really likd it. I actually laughed out loud many times. And there was some practical information about health, about sexual issues and about how to talk to your ER doctor or nurse. Most of the stories have happy endings. I enjoyed it most when the actual doctors or nurses appeared in the "dramatic recreations." There were also some silly touches, such as people reading a magazine called "Puplife" or a couple drinking a beer brand called BEER. Occassionally, you can see one of the actors laughing at "serious" moments. Now, this series was made to get the attention of channel surfers, so it does get repetative in recapping what went on before. This makes the series best to watch when you can only half-pay attention, such as when eating, clipping coupons or petting the dog. Very quirky and nicely weird.
