Review of Cupid

Cupid (1998–1999)
7/10
great banter
22 August 2013
Dr. Claire Allen (Paula Marshall) is a Chicago psychologist with a singles therapy group. She is struggling to write a paper on romance from the scientific point of view. She gets a call from a mental hospital about a new patient. He thinks he's Cupid (Jeremy Piven) exiled from Mount Olympus until he has made 100 love matches without his bow and arrows.

This is the first show that Rob Thomas created. The pilot is a bit dark. The hospital probably has something to do with that. It gets lighter after that. Jeremy Piven is great as the manic lead. Paula Marshall is great with her beauty and superiority. The best is their combustible mixture. Their banter is the best part of the show. Sadly, this only lasted one season. Paula Marshall was known for her TV show cancellations during this time. Rob Thomas did try it again in 2009 with even less success.
