    Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
    Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
    Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
    Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
    Aleriah1987 I can't seem to add a photo to the FAQ!Does anyone know what song it is in S01E07 - Wall Flower Jane where Lorelai is walking in the park?It goes something along these lines:"Every day is like an episode, long fallow one like a stepping stone, waiting for someone to break the mold, in with the new, out with the old...."
    Leora Ektelkait Pros: It's entertaining. It will appeal to many young girls with secret crushes. I like the methods used (i.e. not just a simple makeover, there's the whole fear facing/motivational challenges). It's cute, unique and hilarious. I love what Louise dresses the girls in.Cons: The girls are chosen very carefully - even before the makeover, you can easily tell they're cuties (in some cases they're just stunning, just that they dress like hobos) and rather thin. The crushes, some of them seemed like they "play for the other team"...hence, their "Oh, I like you too" is fake. Well, the show overall is fake. I would be very, very surprised if all the girls didn't turn out to be actresses and guys weren't paid to be nice on that date (some of them looked almost horrified when the girl was revealed). All the cute guys on the challenge for each Plain Jane to flirt - the 'success', the last one that gives his phone number - acting.It's too bad, on one hand I wish the show survived, as it's hilarious to watch and if the producers grow a pair and get actual, average plain jane - it would be fun to watch. On the other hand, if it continues to be this string of fake, too perfect, too scripted episodes - I won't watch it and, I'm afraid, it will be canceled.
    craigman-herring I have seen the first two episodes of "Plain Jane", and while I realize it is a somewhat contrived, fake show, it is at least entertaining. So far, there have been two somewhat attractive "Janes" that had cute faces and nice bodies, so it is no surprise when they are "transformed". I actually thought the redhead with the glasses looked better before her "transformation"! The preview for the third episode also has an attractive dark haired woman, wearing baggy clothes to hide her thin body, for some reason. I agree with some of the other posters who thought the first guy "crush" was gay. His hair was a serious giveaway! Maybe he was just "metrosexual", but I doubt it! The show also features the girls "facing their fears" and being put into awkward and embarrassing situations. The British female host is amiable enough, though she looks awfully skinny! Typical Hollywood! The women are too skinny and the men are gay! I hope future episodes feature women with some meat on their bones! Well, while I can find plenty wrong with the show, I find it quite watchable. My wife likes it as well, so at least it is a show we can both watch and enjoy.
