Really? Or maybe this show turns off slightly dumb people who feel that every barb or stereotype depicted are to be taken very, very personally. Because, you know, nothing can be tongue-in-cheek anymore. It might offend someone!

Nope, wishful thinking on your part.

Clearly not.

Those of us who enjoy this show will continue to discuss it. If you don't like the show... surely you can figure out something else to do with your time.

Hold on. You don't get to tell people what they can do or not do. I see this thread is 2 pages lighter today, mostly posts that didn't care for the show. There are plenty of shows on here that people snark on and write all about what they dislike about them. Why are you so bent on only positive talk about this crappy little cable show? And you wonder why people find your motives suspect.

Regarding the bolded, perhaps that's because you and others chose to insult the intelligence of the posters who enjoyed this show? Think that might be it?

Since you apparently have nothing better to do than grouse about a show that rubbed you the wrong way for some inexplicable reason... knock yourself out. It's more than a little peculiar that anyone would bother with a discussion that didn't interest them. Or why they'd choose to call others "unintelligent" just because their tastes in TV are different from yours. Perhaps you just get a kick out of insulting people?

However, the OP started this thread with a positive discussion of the show, and people like you rapidly (and rabidly) pounced on it with claws out. You're the one whose motives are by now deeply suspect. It's going to be amusing to see you continue to watch (and bitch) about this show that you "hate so much".

First off, back up. I haven't insulted anyone - but you sure have. So maybe do a little self reflection. Second have you ever heard of sites like TWOP, Survivor Sucks, Previously.tv etc? Pretty popular sites of people snarking on tv shows. So its not so peculiar that someone might discuss a show they don't like.

Honestly I come to this thread to watch the rabid defenders lose their shit every time someone says anything about the show or them. Because its funny. Funnier than the show that is for sure.

PP here. In what way have I insulted anyone? By calling you and the other snarkers out on your bad behavior?

And yes, I've heard of those sites. They're fun to go on if you want to snark or read snark about shows you hate. This thread isn't one of those sites.

Yes, you were insulting, your entire post was generalizing and rude. Also why do you think you have control over this thread and can decide it is only for positive reviews? Actually I don't want to know. Just get over yourself.

*waits patiently for some childish retort*

There are not enough eyerolls in the universe for this response.

Wrong!

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/11/fashion/in-odd-mom-out-mining-the-upper-east-side-for-comedy-gold.html?_r=0

and IMDB gives it a 7 out of 10. Its not an A+ but its not a "poor rating" either.

I guess we will just agree to disagree. The show is hilarious - to me at least! I find myself laughing throughout the entire 30 minutes.

One woman leaves her child at my house for playdates until she's done with her conference calls. Actually, we won't be doing playdates anymore due to her incredible self-absorption, so I should say she used to leave her child. She'd call right when she was supposed to be picking up her DD and say, "I'm so sorry, but I really need to finish this conference call. I'll pick Larla up in an hour or so, K?" Unbelievable.

Another woman would never RSVP to parties we invited her child to, but would then just show up and drop said child off anyway. So the cringe-worthy scenes with Jill hit home for me - funny, but oh-so-not-funny in real life!

Thing is though, Jill is supposed to be the "hero" and most people I've talked to about this show, haters in this thread aside, find her to be pretty horrible.
