Love Monkey: Nice Package

A critic who reviewed this show said that there's nothing quite like it on television. I'd have to agree.
It manages to be both a romantic, funny, likable, light comedy/drama and an edgier comedy with pointed barbs,
quick and clever one-liners, and sharp pop culture/news references.
Is it like the moved Ed to New York City? Yeah, it actually is. Tom Cavanagh handles the Ed part (duh), it has the mix of comedy and drama, it has the pop/rock soundtrack, and Jason Priestly and Tom's sister even fill the Mike/Nancy roles (the marriage stuff, and he's even a doctor!). But it's just different enough too.
