With middling reviews (38% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a short run with a modest audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

- Made for anyone who wants a laugh.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- 3 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 17 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
- It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.
Danny Burton is a 30-ish carefree single guy who has watched most of his friends move on to serious relationships. When his last remaining friend Shannon moves out to get married, Danny searches for a new roommate. A promising candidate is Justin, the owner of Black Eyes Bar in Detroit (frequently mispronounced "Black Guys Bar"). Justin and his friends - the nerdy Burski, oddball Shelly, and recently out-of-the-closet gay guy Brett - all have certain qualities that make them appear "undateable".
