I can tell you've never watched it if that is your opinion of the show.

I have watched it and I think it's a poor man's version Friends, so, no, I don't think it breaks any new ground. It's narrative style is cute, but it's heavy-handed and a ploy that seems to say, "Look how groundbreaking and edgy we are!"

Love NPH on that show--I do appreciate the fact that a gay actor has finally broken through being cast as heterosexual cad. In that sense, NPH's performance is groundbreaking, but the show itelf is not.
