You know that "John from Cincinnati" post below? After last week's episode, I have concluded that -- How can I put this delicately? -- I was wrong. Last week's episode was the kind of train wreck that doesn't happen to shows that are on the verge of becoming magical.
Yes, I will watch again tonight. But based on last week's episode, the show has moved from fascinating mess with a chance for greatness to potentially irredeemable disaster.
(As always, I reserve the right to pull a Gale Sayers and cut back against the grain again.)
(James Wolcott is on-point with some of his criticism of the show here and here. Though I still maintain that the opening credits are pure genius.)

OK- now I need to know the latest- what is your opinion. Do I need to watch it while house-sitting next week or not?
:)
I LOVE the Roseanne Rosanna-Danna header-perfect!!
Ok I have watched the first 4 episodes. and I think it MIGHT be great. And I am really really enjoying it.
So now I am scared. Do I stop here and let it be as good as it can be in my mind or do I risk disappointment by watching the next four episodes?
Oh I will watch it and probably continue to watch it after it turns awful and everyone else stops watching. Thanks SOAM!
