"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It's about a single geeky guy in LA trying to pick up women and failing miserably.

This is the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPEYvhOL_dI

Stephen Merchant is a witty and very funny guy, but I can't say I'm too impressed with his show. I expected it to be much higher quality. But you guys can take a look and judge for yourselves.

You can watch select clips on YouTube (some of which are quite funny), and the full-length episodes here: http://watchtvseries.ch/serie/Hello_Ladies
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I think I tried watching the first episode on HBO GO and wasn't into it. If you get into it and find something good about it let us know. Been looking for something new to watch.

Netflix seriously needs to get Californication back up on the stream. I only saw the first season when it was first out and I'm dying to run thru the whole thing.

This is the first I've heard of this! I love Stephen Merchant so will definitely be checking this out soon.

Have any of you listened to him talking about his experiences with women on his podcasts? He was the ultimate AFC, his stories made me cringe with embarrassment, especially because I could relate to a lot of them.
