Enlightened (2011–2013)

Uhhhhh..... No, I don't think so.

I tried really hard to like this show, but just about everyone in the show is irritating, especially the lead character Amy. I know that people have said this before as a kind of positive criticism, but I don't think so. Amy supposedly had been an manager at her company, but I find this totally unbelievable. She's a complete idiot and no one likes her, and I do not believe that she would have been a better person when she was drinking and doing drugs. It is easier to believe that she was manipulative and narcissistic, because that it the character she is after her "enlightenment". Actually I have no idea why they even call the show "Enlightened", it's more like "Bi Polar". Levi, her ex-husband, is the only main character that seemed authentic, and I have no idea what he would have saw in her over a 25 year period, even while he was drunk. The only reason that I would have wished that there had been a third season would be to see her get arrested for computer hacking and thrown into jail. In an attempt to get a better deal, I'm pretty that she would have turned on the two saps who helped her with her "project". I cannot recommend this show.
