Review of Starved

Starved (2005)
10/10
Probably the best show from US in recent couple of years
1 January 2007
It just hit Australia! :-( Its not a medical, legal or police show, and it has people acting like people without being a reality TV! In other words its great :-)

It rather reminds me of the opening to Stripes with Bill Murray's place when he looses the job, the girlfriend and the dinner (pizza) all in a matter of an hour.

I don't agree that this is in the Sinefeld mold. I don't expect to wait for a gag at every opportunity, and so I found myself trying to understand the characters, so the writing is really good.

I could watch this, but a bit less of the gross images...

The show seems to have, on first viewing, too much emphasis on the therapy group. Do group members really affect each other's lives so much, and maintain relationships outside of the group meetings?

All in all its a really innovative and watchable show Full marks A+ :-)
