Review of Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place

I was trying to think of the perfect way to describe this show and after reading all the reviews on here, (which blows my mind at how much positive reviews there are! What were tptb thinking by canceling this show?!) you pretty much said it all, one or the other or all! But I will say that I enjoyed this show mainly because of the strong chemistry between Ryan, Richard, and Traylor. It was additions of Susan, Nathan and Jillian that really completed the bond. Everyone was great on the show. Though I hated the character Ashley, Susan Cryer was genius on that one! That was the point of the character. Hate to love. She did it beautifully. Nathan was fabulous as Johnny in seasons 3 and 4. He was a little shy at the start but when he became full time he really fell into place. Irene kind of bugged me at the end. I liked her when she was after Pete but I never felt she was a good match for Berg. Richard and Traylor were just wonderful (as was Sharon and Pete)! But my all time love of the show was indubitably Ryan Reynolds! Michael Bergen was just a brilliant character! I loved his mix of humor, drama and heart. Ryan played his character to the max and put so much heart into it. My acting coach says to find yourself in the character and RR does that impeccably. I mean look at his career now. That tells you all you need to know.

I will say as much as I love the show I did have a few issues with the partner swapping for one. The devilish attitude that Pete somehow developed in the latter of the series. The whole hookup with Ashley and Pete at the end. (I always thought that Pete and Ashley made a better couple to begin with.) Too rushed at the end of the last season and the network owed this show more time to prepare for its demise. Overall I recommend the show to anyone who cares for the great chemistry and tasteful humor. It deserved much more than it got and its severely missed.
