    Improv dating sitcom misfires; older teens OK.

Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 15–18

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    The leads exhibit poor workplace bahavior -- they're petty, competitive, and dysfunctional. One character has been in an adulterous relationship for 20 years.

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    One of the main characters is a lothario, and the show has some sexual innuendo. Two men are caught in a clandestine clinch. The show is set at a dating service, so relationships are a main theme.

  • Language:

    Mild cursing, such as "jackass."

  • Consumerism:

    Regular mentions of sponsor/real dating Web site PerfectMatch.com.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    In one episode, a late-night work project ends with one of the characters consuming an entire bottle of whisky.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Lovespring International

Parents need to know that this show takes place in a highly dysfunctional office in which the employees often exhibit poor judgment. One of the female leads has been in a 20-year relationship with a married man; her colleague is a closeted gay man in a loveless marriage.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about appropriate workplace behavior. Why is it important to do a good job at work (or, for teens, at school)? What should you do when you see colleagues or classmates being dishonest? Families can also talk about dating. Would you ever consider using a dating service to help you find a mate? What criteria are important to you in selecting a boyfriend or girlfriend? Why?
