SunnyHello Nice effects though.

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

babi-11 I did not live in the 70's and I really do not care if things were like this or not. This is a TV series (fiction!), and a VERY GOOD one………………. The series goes far beyond sex and drugs. It talks about relationships, connections, choices and the consequences of these choices. The dialogs are intelligent and fun. The series is well directed. The actors are great and the music is fantastic. The series does use the 70's and its contrasts as a background, but it does not attempt to describe the life of every individual living in Chicago at time. Do not take it personally just enjoy it as any other TV series. It is definitely worth breaking the prejudices and giving it a try. I am sure you are going to love it!I wish there was a second season….

lickcat3 I just had to write about Swingtown. Yes it was like this in the 1970's in the Boston area. Not everyone but more than you think!! I love this show and hope it comes back on. But TV doesn't always have the best shows. Guess we will all have to wait to see what happens. Plus to those that say this never happened. 1- You just did not see it., 2-You did not want to see it and did not believe it. 3- You were too uptight and were not invited!! In sum ways wish we were back in those times, it was hard but easy than it is now a days, plus a lot more fun... An idea for for all TV/movie people out there is Why don't you make a movie out of this with the same cast and crew you have now so if you do not bring the show back at least you might be "nice" and finish the story for all of us that have been watching the show!!

xvoraz I don't know why I love this series so much. I must say I am not fond of series I watch only House m d. And this was sort of love on first sight... I download it every Sunday (i cant watch it in Hungary and neither online)I didn't live in the 70' when it takes place so I cant tell whether it is actually like this or not. I just think the actors are true in the sense that i believe them what they play. And the psychological play among swingers and their children is just believable. It shows both sides of the coin, swinging is not all bad or all right. And most important: I love all the characters, thats what makes this series so great for me.I heard they moved it from Saturday to Friday because of the low ratings... I cant judge this film objectively because I love it, maybe its not that good, but its for me for sure!

findingsparky After watching every single episode to date, I find that I'm really starting to enjoy the characters and story lines more and more with each passing week. The only characters I do not enjoy watching are the kids. From acting to looks (yeah, I'm shallow like that), they're all a poor fit, imo.The sex scenes are handled tastefully, though I find myself wishing the show was broadcast on Showtime occasionally, but I'm content with how it's filmed for now. I do like the psychological aspect of how choosing this lifestyle might alter one's way of thinking and how it will drastically change the dynamic of a relationship. It certainly doesn't make you come away thinking that it's all fun and games with no consequences.I truly hope CBS decides to keep the show. It's got great potential. I will miss it if it's canceled.
