Denise Johnson is an energetic, pragmatic young woman who takes pride in her success as a full-service dating consultant. As the female version of a "wingman," this savvy matchmaker and her quirky co-workers help lovelorn single men (and women) present the best image possible to just the right prospects. Skilled at helping her clients find their seemingly unattainable soulmates, Denise continues to grapple with her inability to find one herself.

Maureen Ryan Chicago Tribune "Love, Inc.," a grating comedy about the staff at an urban dating service, is destined to be a footnote in history as the show that premiered after "Everybody Hates Chris," and most likely faded shortly thereafter. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe The show is so shrill and [Busy] Philipps is so hammy, it's all just too much. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Kay McFadden Seattle Times Brisk, inoffensive, instantly forgettable. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel The lethal combination of a stupid show and a suicidal time slot makes this UPN series the early favorite to become the least watched of the fall's newcomers. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Jill Murphy Common Sense Media Bottom line: OK for older teens if they show an interest, but there are far better programs for them to spend time on. Rated: 2/5 Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Todd R. Ramlow PopMatters Love, Inc. is boringly un-hip. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
