Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23

Hey everyone!

This is Allie and I'm so excited we started this blog! My first entry is going to be about a sitcom I have only seen one episode of. But since I don't have cable or satellite and mainly watch TV on Netflix I like to try different shows that have already been cancelled. Which led me to Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23. The one episode I watched was a Dawson's Creek one with Busy Phillips because it aired soon after I found a love of Dawson's. And truly I am only watching to see if James Van Der Beek can ever not be the annoying Dawson Leery we all love to hate.

Don't Trust The B in Apartment 23

Season 1

 Episode 1: Pilot

Well we start out with two characters having sex around the apartment when a roommate walks in. "My roommate slept with my fiancé on my birthday cake and it was the best thing that ever happened to me"
Interesting?

Now we are following the blonde girl but I didn't even know she was in this show. So obviously I didn't know anything about it. Her company has went under and now she cant get into her building. So this may be the worst day of June's (that's her name!) life.

These Skype chats with her parents are weird.

"This bad luck cant last forever" Those are famous last words.

Cue the interviewing roommates montage. The B---- in the show does seem normal in the roommate interview. Chloe called him "Beek from the Creek" and they used to date but now is like her gay best friend just not gay.

Girl from down the hall who says "don't trust the bitch in apartment 23 looks familiar. Can't place her though. Neighbor guy is creepy. Chloe is walking around naked and its all blurred out. Probably way more blurring than they need. Is neighbor guy going to stand behind that window all the time like he's the neighbor on Home Improvement.

She calls James Van Der Beek and "I Don't Wanna To Wait" comes on as a girl walks down the stairs. That was perfect.

Little blonde chick stood up to Chloe by selling all her stuff after Chloe stole from her. Nice move June. And June just tried to sing "I Don't Wanna wait" to James. This is going be the running joke and I bet it really does happen in his life.

June give a nice speech complete with background music to get back Chloe's ottoman. She only wanted the ottoman back because it had drugs in it. Then Indiana boyfriend, who is not cute,  shows up and Chloe asks who wants to get weird and play Mario Kart. Chloe gets the kid who comes with him (as a patient for him to monitor?) drunk and he tells her Indiana boy is cheating on June. Chloe tries to tell June the truth but June does not believe her (rightfully so). And this brings us full circle to the birthday cake sex scene. Nurse girl gets mad when she also walks in on him cheating.

Now we have a nice bonding moment in a bar and everyone is friends. The best part may be the commercial James Van Der Beek did at the end.

To sum it up, this has been a mildly amusing show I can keep watching it but I don't see it becoming a favorite. Since I am a Dawson's Creek fan all the jokes about it pretty funny. Hopefully, the show will keep us from making the famous Dawson face.

Did anyone watch this while it was on air? Did you love it or hate it? Is anyone sad its gone? Can James Van Der Beek ever not be Dawson?
