I love this show. I bought the first season on DVD and just watched it again and the full second season elsewhere.
Debra Messing as Stacey looks amazing on this show; she is beautiful. Much better than as Grace. And Thomas Haden Church is hilarious as Ned.
The second season is very different. The first season focuses on Ned and Stacey and their relationship. This is much more diluted in the second season. The shows are good in a different way; you see more of Amanda and Eric and Ned is different. You don't see the warmth that comes across in the first season in the Ned and Stacey relationship.
And, honestly, why change the look of three of the main characters? Ned's hair is now long (which I hate for this show.) And Stacey's hair and makeup are both toned down and not as vivid. Amanda's hair also changed color from red to brown with highlights, which again, seemed boring.
And a muffin shop?? It seems unrealistic and too much of a change for Amanda.
** spoiler ** spoiler ** spoiler ** And I really, really hated the way it ended. It was so depressing and why end a funny show in such a way? Why destroy Ned on every possible level? And Stacey's final response was lacking.
But doesn't he still own that building? And what about all the floors on top of the muffin shop? Don't they generate income?
