You won't be disappointed!

Too many fans seem to be blown away

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Every once in a while a great new TV show steps out of the box and delivers an actually originally new series. I thought this was a great series and looked forward to watching every week. The cast was great and chemistry. This was an excellent showcase for Jeremy and Paula. If this show was still on I would still be watching. It was well written and really made you wonder if he was who he claimed to be. He had a great way of getting to the seed of the guests problem and helping them to get the love they were looking for. There was obvious opportunities for a love interest to develop between the main characters and I looked forward to seeing how all this would play out. In Short..... This show should still be on TV and I am not the only one to think so. I have seen many bootleg copies of this show on ebay. I would be great if it came out on DVD.

I didn't take the time to read through all of the other comments so maybe the answer is already in there somewhere. But I have never seen any rational explanation for the cancellation of this show, especially after just one season. Did the Christian Right object to the glorification of pagan gods? Did one of the producers run off with the teenage daughter of a network suit so they shut down production just out of spite? The writing and acting were superb. There was one particular episode that I've forgotten the exact details of where one of the couples Cupid tries to match up end up not working out but the guy dies in an accident and the girl ends up receiving his heart in a transplant. I wept like a baby. It's still one of my all-time favorite single episodes of any television series. This show should have run for years with the built-in premise of Cupid having to create 100 couples (hence 100 episodes- hello ABC!).

It seems like the shows that really write to the intelligence of the audience are canceled quickly. I know they need to appease the most common of viewers, but they should consider other possibilities. This was one of the only shows I have ever been able to get my husband to watch with me. He will no longer watch network television since it has been canceled. The interaction between the characters was terrific. You could definitely feel the chemistry. The episodes were often touching and thoughtful, with a sense of humor. If you like a good romantic comedy, than this show was perfect for you. The best part is that it wasn't geared toward one sex. It had episodes that appealed to both genders. Which is why this show was ideal for couples and families.

"Cupid" was the lovely Paula Marshall's second of four short-lived series in as many years (after "Chicago Sons," and before "Snoops" and the appropriately named "Cursed"). In addition to ABC cancelling it after 14 episodes aired, this charmer (the show, not Paula) made its way to UK screens in 2001 on Channel 5, which showed all fifteen episodes in an idiotic weekday afternoon slot - fortunately I was off work while it was on, otherwise I'd have never known what I'd have missed.To wit: Spot-on acting from Jeremy Piven as the man who may or may not have been Cupid (one of the series's many strengths was that it never actually said for sure whether or not he was the god of love, preferring instead to let us make up our own minds), Jeffrey D. Sams as his actor roommate who was determined to make it without doing stereotyped black roles, and Marshall as the psychiatrist in charge of our hero's case - in charge for sure, but never unsympathetic.Romantic entanglements that didn't always work out, even though the viewer always hoped they would (and which made it even sweeter when they did).Just enough edge to take the sugar off for those who detest sentimentality, but enough whimsy to maintain the feeling of fantasy - a tough act to pull off but creator Rob Thomas and the other writers pulled it off. Captivating, funny and touching all the way, this may have been doomed by its very concept (shows where someone has to achieve a set number of tasks never seem to work - "Brimstone," "The 100 Lives of Black Jack Savage," etc), but at least it went out before it had a chance to degenerate.For what it's worth, I think he was the real deal.
