    No-one finds it funny, fair enough ALOT of women like it, but its not comedy ffs!
    I know the other shows on comedy central arent funny either, but at least they try!

    Meh, it has its moments.

    Just change the station if you don't like it.

    Yes its comedy.The Sopranos isn't comedy but this is meant to be.However too many women took S&TC too seriously and used the characters in it as templates for their lives.

    Would it be correct to say "art imitating life, imitating art, imitating life"

    To my shame Ive seen a fair few episodes, I watch it in a mild state of disgust (thats a habit of mine, I watch stuff that annoys me, e.g. flicking through the channels, see an ad I hate, Ill watch it)
    I always laugh at the rhetorical questions she asks herself, the ones that scroll across her computer screen
    "Is new york the woman, or the woman new york?"
    very poor quality

    :) Yeah but too much imitating in the end looses the reality altogether

    No, it's not funny, and it doesn't belong on CC. I was dragged along to a movie of it as a it was a family members birthday, and was getting some heat over not wanting to go. It.. was... painful.

    I think what is being tried for was empowered, independent women, all I saw was neurotic and needy.

    It's about as funny as those loud, obnoxious American stand up comedians that they show.

    If we start listing things that aren't funny on comedy central, well, we could be here for a while.
