Funny, I saw Bridges first, then Stage Kiss and thiought about a similar thing. Although I enjoyed Stage Kiss more than you did.

To me, SK was one possible option Bridges lovers may end up facing if Francesca left her family for Robert. Of course their personalities are different, so the relationship won't be as messy as SK couple. But I thought yes, Francesca may say one day I want to go home.

So although these are totally different shows, because of the framework of the two shows and the timing of when I saw them, I thought it's a fun to compare and contrast.

Actually I enjoyed most of STAGE KISS. Ruhl knows how to set up conflicts and keep things moving, the comedy got over, and I've never enjoyed Jessica Hecht more.

It's only when Ruhl began resolving the interesting situations with inauthentic bromides that things went sour for me.
