hello, my name is Genevieve and I’m french. Lucky for me that this show went across the sea to a streaming website. Sorry, didn’t have the choice because a foolish production has decided to stop this great serie. You know what, you are making a terible mistake. People are tired with series talking about murders, investigations, illness… You are the ones on this segment of pretty shows, treating about love with humour and sens, and you blow it on fire? are you crazy or what. France would have been very happy to see this show. too bad!!!

JUST LIKE ABC TO TOSS THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATH WATER. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS I DUMPED THE NETYWORKS IN FAVOR OF STACKING BB”s IN THE CORNER. I STILL THINK THAT THE “BBC” IS WAY AHEAD OF AMERICAN TV.

I found this while looking for the latest news on this great show. I love Cupid!! I thought the character was adorable & likeable. The chemistry was great. The episodes were slightly predictable, but that is the premise. And the scene with the progressive “date” down the street was wonderful & memorable.

I have never seen the original cupid, but if it’s anything like the newly released one then I would have loved it. I would watch it on Tuesdays, but now it’s not on anymore. What happened did they cancel it, or are they going to bring it back later on in the fall? I hope they bring it back…

I loved this show. I did not see the first one, but I loved this one. There are plenty of cop shows, doctors/hospital dramas, even a fair share of ESP type shows,. This was fun and different. Trevor was adoable also! I hope this show continues.

I love this Cupid show, I never saw the one in 98. I only watch great shows 21/2 Men, Rules of Engagement and Cupid. I love realistic shows with comedy not drama. Now it’s Tuesday and Cupid is not on. Please let me know where you moved it to.

I loved the original and was very disapointed when it disapeared. I watched the pilot but I think they have the wrong Cupid, the original was the best, he just was the part. I look forward to liking future episodes, but I think I will still compare to the original Cupid. Glad it has had a chance to comeback, it is a fun show and we certainly need those now.

I’ve been a big fan of many short-lived, critically well-received shows, including Doctor Doctor, Sports Night, and Cupid. Sports Night is an over-the-top ensemble show that suffered from Aaron Sorkin’s apparent ADD problem. Similar to West Wing, it started out being a high energy show full of humor, but then began a descent to unfunny personal stories. Doctor Doctor and Cupid were very much single character/actor driven, Matt Frewer for Doctor Doctor and Jeremy Piven for Cupid. I was excited to stumble across the new Cupid, and another Rob Thomas production (I watched Veronica Mars regularly). I was disappointed with the first episode of Cupid. Bobby Cannavale comes across as a somewhat overbearing dufus, and the show lacked the humor Jeremy Piven brought to the original. I’m willing to give the new Cupid another chance, so I’ll watch it for a few episodes. I’m not convinced Sarah Paulson is a psychologist, but I’m willing to give her another chance, too. Time will tell if Cupid goes the way of the last disaster Sarah Paulson starred in, Aaron Sorkin’s Studio 60.

I loved the original CUPID. Jeremy Piven was perfect. This new guy, his wit and delivery just isn’t that good. I want to see the Original one more time.

oh, if we are remaking shows that didn’t pan out, can we at least try sports night?

every person in america who knew anything about it knew it was incredible (except the people with the money), though we are ten years dumber now, so it would be even less received, but still worth a shot, sorkin, you out there?

honestly, this does not make any sense…i remember thinking the show was alright the first time around, mainly because piven made it such, but with new actors and all, this show will not succeed…

remakes of great classics are not doing well, why would a remake of what was in most respects a dud succeed. we are obviouusly in a time where originality is rarely rewarded, and certainly not expected in film and movies, but are we this desperate that we are going to redo shows that failed the first time around? cupid ver. 1.2 will be constantly compared to the first one, though most people won’t remember the first one. at best, you will say, oh this is what they should have done the first time around.

what’s next, ALF in Charge?

I have been harboring great bitterness towards ABC for years for canceling the original Cupid. Looking forward to giving this one a chance.

Would it kill ABC to release the Jeremy Piven Cupid series on DVD? What the hell is the hold up here?

Surprising and good news.

Gotta trust Rob Thomas as his first effort was the best TV show ever.

Jeremy Piven will surely be missed.

I am concerned at how the new show could possibly manage the feat of finding a cast with as much chemistry as the original Cupid cast. Also Piven really left a large space for some new actor to try and fill. Location-wise LA is a big visual and cultural jump to make from San Fran, the locale in the original series was very charming, stylish and a bit bohemian… not the same vibe most would picture LA generating. Hopefully though the greatness of the original wasn’t just the alchemy of fate matching the right creatives with the only right cast for them. Also that Rob Thomas gets a chance to really get the show up and running this time.

I loved the first Cupid and I will definitely watch the remake. Piven did such a great job as Trevor Hale. Those will be big shoes to fill. Either way, I’ll be watching!!!

It would be cool, If Jeremy Piven would be a guest on the new show.

Although Rob Thomas was one of the major forces behind the show, which I was an avid fan of, the big key was Jeremy Pivens incredible performance as a man who maybe insane, psychologically troubled, amniesiacly challenged, or actually Cupid.

If they do this show this way they have a BIG mountain to climb. Also one of the big points about Cupid is that it wasn’t the usual Hollywood centric star studded show.

I am caught actively anxiously anticipating the next Rob Thomas project and worrying that they will ruin a favourite yet ratings unsuccessful show.
