2 joke characters
23 August 2013
June Colburn (Dreama Walker) is a naive girl from Indiana. Her new job disappears when her firm turns out to be a scam. She joins Chloe (Krysten Ritter) as a roommate but Chloe is trying to scam her out of her rent. The two opposites grow to be friends. Then there is James Van Der Beek playing a warped fictionalized version of himself as Chloe's friend.

This show is basically about 2 broad big joke characters. The first is Krysten Ritter as Chloe, the B in the title. She's a modern day grifter living off the generosity/naivety of others. She spends her day with various schemes to party and to get money. The second is James Van Der Beek. He seems to have fun playing it over the top. I love the characters. The 2 jokes go a long way, but it never becomes more much than that. It struggles pass the original concept. The group chemistry never really gels. In the end, it lasted only 2 seasons and 26 episodes.
