June 9, 200620 yr Member So far, it's interesting. I just wish Luke Perry wasn't in it...I'm sick of seeing 90210 alumni.
June 9, 200620 yr Member I've been interested in the show since it was first picked up, but after all the pushing back, my expectations are lower. I'll be checking it out tonight
June 9, 200620 yr Member I won't spoil it for those of you who haven't seen it, but it wasn't too bad! Lana Parrilla and Jason Gedrick are in it, who were sooooo good on Boomtown (another excellent but canceled NBC series... imagine that ). Decent escape for the summer. One thing, though... I'd like to know what Luke Perry's paycheck was for this. He's listed as the star but he was hardly in tonight's show.
June 9, 200620 yr Member I liked it. There are some interesting story possibilities. So far I'm most intersted in the married couples' quadrangle, the divorced parents, pizza lady's new wealth and the teenage boy's rebellion. Very cool show.
June 9, 200620 yr Member It was interesting enough. The final sequence with all those "flashbacks" was the best part though, and next week's episode looks better
June 9, 200620 yr Author Member -I hope pizza girl doesn't lose her money. I'm interested in all the characters EXCEPT that jail bird. I HATE thug stories...
June 9, 200620 yr Author Member Peyton List wasn't on.... I hope stupid NBC picks it up for a full season.
June 10, 200620 yr Member I thought it was pretty bad. Boring too. Luke Perry looked award (I must have a 90210 hang over); I hated the fact that I could not relate to any of the characters, and didn't know any of the actors. I know new actors have potential but this group seems like B grade actors. I couldn't believe them at all. And the show seemed to flow so poorly, again, failing to draw any emotion from the viewer IMO. I heard somewhere that the show tried to get the LOST thing going with bringing together different groups of people and then focusing on their issues but not once did I get that from this show. It all seems so AMATEUR.
June 12, 200619 yr Member I liked it. A lot of characters, maybe too many. But can be a really good series if the storylines pick up. Luke Perry was a non-factor, which is a shame , lol. It's also ashame NBC kept this until the summer because it could've been a hit for them (Not bad ratings, plus would've done a lot better than some other dramas they had this year like Surface & E-Ring)
June 14, 200619 yr Member I liked it. It was cute and interesting. However, I predict it will last six episodes, tops. This show does not have staying power, IMO.
June 14, 200619 yr Member I liked it, but I thought there was too many characters. I couldn't keep up with everyone. I guess i'm a little slow.
June 16, 200619 yr Member I loved the second episode ven better. Also it was a really good cliffhanger. So far my fave characters are Kimberly (pizza girl), Peter (Luke Perry), Nina (his wife), Beth (blonde wife), Frankie (teenage girl) and Damian (teen boy). I also like Damian's Russian wife. This show is impressing me. I hope it has a full season.
