It is a performances centric movie

Absolutely Fantastic

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

This isn't a generic sitcom. The characters are more proactive and opinionated, more real and substantial than your standard sitcom. The writers wisely avoid typical setup/punchline jokes, but unfortunately don't offer any clever alternative comedic approach, and are sexually fixated in a way that seems juvenile and gratuitous. It really didn't make me laugh at all, in fact I think this show would be more accurately categorised as a light drama than a comedy. The main drawcard for fans of the show seems to be the way it panders to the conservative middle class, propping up their delusions of hipness. Sorry, if you identify with this show you ain't hip.

Hidden Hills in my opinion is equal if not superior to popular comedy series like Friends, Home Improvements, Everybody loves Raymond, and Malcolm in the middle. Writing from New Zealand, the now realized reruns of Hidden Hills air at 10:30pm weekdays, but the last episode ended today. I'm gasped to have learned that this program only lasted a season. It's the most intelligent sitcom ever seen, and funnier than anything running at present. I guess I like Hidden Hills because it's both intelligent, honest, and funny. It ranks with the Sopranos in intelligence and honesty. Hidden Hills gives me insight to a perfect marriage and/or couple, and hints on possible solutions to dilemmas that are inevitable in marriage and/or between couples, and at the same time I enjoy myself. I learn a lot from the character Doug, and love watching for attributes from the beautifully played Janine. I'm in love with Hidden Hills, and it is a great shame it's been canceled. About to turn 21 come August, and single, this program isn't only for married couples! I like the show as it is, but a little tweaks here or there and this could possibly conform to the wider audience, and hence become more 'popular'. Next on my list is to get the DVDs for this rare TV series.

For the first time my husband and I have found a sitcom that we "both" can relate to. Instead of one of us laughing, and one of us rolling our eyes at the other during the show, we both laugh and comment on the situations that take place on the shows. We usually watch discovery channel or something along that line the little time we have to watch TV together. But our nights with Hidden Hills has given us the laughter we "need" in these days of world chaos. We look forward to the next show each week, and have been going through withdrawals awaiting the next airing. We were worried when we couldn't find our show lately, that something bad had happened to what we call true "reality TV" with a twist. Please keep it coming!

Quirky and unconventional would be one way to describe this sitcom. It's shot in a way I've never seen for anything else in this genre...and yes, it's funny! The idea of creating story lines from the lead actor's point of view is very interesting...though I'm not sure how long they can keep the ideas fresh. Good on them for taking a risk.
