Reaser a winner on 'Ex List'
Posted at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 1
THE EX LIST
8 p.m. Friday CBS
The scoop: Bella Bloom is told by a psychic she has one year to marry a man with whom she already has been romantically involved, or she will never get married. Now Bella has to reacquaint herself with all the men she’s dated to find “The One.”
What works: If you liked Elizabeth Reaser when she guest starred as Ava on "Grey's Anatomy" last seaon, you'll love her as Bella. She shows Bella’s yearning without seeming desperate. And she has great pals, including her last ex, Elliott (Mark Deklin), who I think is “The One.”
What doesn’t: I’m all for bawdy humor, but I yelled “TMI!” during the side story about Ella’s buddies Vivian (Alexandra Breckenridge) and Augie (Adam Rothenberg) fighting over Vivian’s “special” waxing.
Tune in or out? 
out of 4. If each week’s former fling is as fun as Eric Balfour is in the pilot, you’ll be hoping Bella never finds her Mr. Right.

Don't cancel the show!
It's great... let's give it a chance everybody!
Curt's reply: I like it too, Scot. Thanks for commenting. From your keyboard to the CBS execs.
Posted by: Scot Parker | Oct 28, 2008 3:19:35 PMLoved this show, one of the few good shows on the air that isn't a reality show. Everyone I know that saw this show really liked it, Im very surprised that it is being taken off the air so fast. I am getting tired of watching new shows and getting to know the story line and then it being removed. Im getting to the point that I don't even want to watch anything new...most are canceled. Disappointed...
Curt's reply: I hear you, Janel. Hope they bring it back, or move it to a more watched night. I guess CBS wants every one of their shows to attract 14 mil + viewers or it gets axed. Thanks for commenting.
Posted by: Janel | Oct 29, 2008 11:38:58 PMPlease dont cancel this show... atleast give it a chance. 1 season let everyone fall in love with it!
Curt's reply: Thanks for commenting Val. Things aren't looking good for the show, however.
Posted by: Val | Oct 31, 2008 7:08:51 PMPlease don't cancel The Ex-List, my friends and I all liked it! We wanna know if Bella finds her man!
Curt's reply: Looks like you might have to create your own ending for Bella's story. Thanks Celeste.
Posted by: Celeste | Oct 31, 2008 8:15:29 PMAs soon as you start watching a show they take it away. I was just going to tell people to start taping The Ex List. But now I guess not. I loved Swingtown. Is it coming back?? Now the Ex list...Can't we watch the episodes already taped on the Internet or Comcast, On Demand??? Why not try to improve on the 5.5 million that watch the show?? People are not happy with the CBS decision.
Curt's reply: Thanks for your comments Sara. Here's the link to an online petition to save the show: http://tvseriesfinale.com/articles/the-ex-list-petition-to-save-the-cancelled-cbs-series/
NOOO! Don't cancel! This show is hilarious! Bella is me, my friends- we need to know who her guy is!
Curt's reply: Thanks for your comments Deb. Here's the link to an online petition to save the show: http://tvseriesfinale.com/articles/the-ex-list-petition-to-save-the-cancelled-cbs-series/
Are you kidding? My husband and I were just looking to see if there was a reason our DVR didn't record it last Friday, and now we find it's been cancelled? It's witty, laugh-out-loud, feel good tv. I don't understand. :(
Curt's reply: Yep, it's gone and I haven't heard any plans to bring it back. Thanks for commenting.
Posted by: stephanie | Nov 7, 2008 6:55:36 AMPlease bring the show back! I love the show. It's too soon to cut it. It's the only new show that I like. It's better than watching a rerun!!!
Curt's reply: Thanks for your comments Lindsay. Here's the link to an online petition to save the show: http://tvseriesfinale.com/articles/the-ex-list-petition-to-save-the-cancelled-cbs-series/
I loved this show! I'm a Mom who has to stay in Friday night and now I have nothing good to watch! Is there a petition to sign or something!
