Matters of the heart

I love Bobby Cannavale just like anybody else, but he ain't no Jeremy Piven.

If you didn't know, Cupid... ahh.... the new version of Cupid aired this week on ABC. I was ready to hate this show (doesn't mean I don't heart you Bobby), I mean full on hate it, but as the seconds and minutes ticked on by, something happened.... I didn't totally hate it. And while whole sections were copied word for word from the previous series, there is a freshness about this 2009 version:

One: It takes place in my favorite city of all time.

Two: I don't know if it's the new HD, but the cinematography is pretty lush.

Three: I love the crazy Mariachi - karoake thing (It would never work in real life).

and
Four: I liked the way Bobby's character said, "the Google Maps"

While I loved the original series and it's faced-paced, wicked, witty banter, there's still room in my heart for the sweetness that Cannavale brings to the screen..
