(S01E01) The good thing about this new series is that you know in the first two minutes whether or not you are the audience the show is looking for. All you have to do is ask yourself, "Am I interested in seeing a man forced to go down on a dildo being worn by a dominatrix?" If the answer is yes, keep reading.
The premise of the show is quite simple. Eric Schaeffer wrote a book about being single and trying to find love. When he went on his book tour he decided to make stops along the way, talk to different people about love and relationships and film it all for this documentary.
Even though eating disorders aren't the first thing that come to mind when you think of sitcom ideas, it's true what
they say: laughter is the best medicine. Sometimes it helps to take a step back from a serious matter and have a laugh
about it. Starved did just that and it did it well. For those of you that missed it's short seven episode
season last summer, Starved was part of F/X's test run with comedy. In the hopes of duplicating the
success it's had with hour-long dramas, F/X paired Starved and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
together creating one of the most unique sitcom hours on TV.
