I never get tired of watching this show - excellent cast, brilliantly funny satire of modern society, dating, friendships, romance and family. Miranda isn't afraid to be herself, despite all the best efforts of her Mother and friends she just is. The writing is full of repeatable sayings "Bear with" "Such fun" "What have you done today, to make you feel proud", etc. All of the characters are given equal time to shine and they deliver in spades. The comedy includes hilarious slapstick and biting British commentary. The viewer empathizes with Miranda in her search to find her way in life, business and romance, all the while avoiding the land mines left by her pretentious former classmates and her overbearing mother.

In Between Men
(2010– )
Complete stereotypical dreck
22 August 2013
Pretty unwatchable and I ditto the other comments about the stiff acting, horrible dialogue & direction, but great production values. One of these days we ( gay men ) might know we're come of age when there's a TV series that shows us as we really are - in all our diversity - but this isn't it. I get that the writer/director wants to show that there are gay men who can be masculine, athletic and 'non-scene', but these characters are just cookie-cutter urbanites ( or at least the perception of what urban gay men are like ). Show me the homely guys, the ( gawd forbid ) older than 40 guys, the guys who don't have high-paying jobs and live in fabulous condos in the city center. Even as pure fluff and soap opera it fails to deliver.
