Basically if you like Kathryn Hahn and Kevin Bacon, this series is for you. I like the way that this series is directed, but it personally does not suit my television tastes. Jill Soloway uses an interesting method of storytelling to relate the characters together in the pilot for I Love Dick. Kathryn Hahn's written-letter-readings mesh the less-organized scenes together, creating an odd but intelligent pacing. The form of the show is elegant and raunchy, relying on sexual tensions to intertwine the characters and give them background. Dick is surrounded by mystery and yet direct towards the other characters, which is clear during the dinner scene. The pilot quickly breaks sexual boundaries in the short half-hour episode, leaving an image in the audience's head that they cannot unsee after the viewing. Overall the pilot fulfills its purpose of leaving the audience curious, but I likely wouldn't get hooked on this series.
