Looks like a good show so far. I'll keep on watching even though it's a little far out for today.

Me too.

Let's see if Wayne can bullcrap his way through law. And if the one armed neighbor will be trouble.

Are we the only two watching this show?

I have it taped, just haven't had time to watch it yet. I really enjoyed the first episode, so as long as the episodes stay on par with the Pilot, I think I can really get into this show.

I'm planning on watching it tonight, so I'll post my thoughts a bit later.

I love this show. It's wacky and weird at the same time. Imagine the idea where going legit is actually the con. After last night's scene with Wayne receiving the phone call from the Unknown Caller you know there's going to be some interesting twists. You do have to have to appreciate dark comedies to get into this show so be warned.

Yup, a great episode. I love the dark comedy and pulling for the "bad-guys". The series definitely has something great going for them -- it's unlike anything on TV or anything that I've ever watched.

For sure, and what about the impound guy? Why can't he just go back to where he got the RV in the first place? And there it is again.

You need to watch Desperate Housewives and Boston Legal also, both on ABC.

I've yet to miss an episode of DH (their dark comedy from season 1 was brilliant, but 2 and 3 -- not so much) and watched a few BL episodes this season and loved them. I love a show, like The Riches, that uses dark comedy and uses it well.

I certainly agree that DH season 1 was the best, hopefully it' will get back to it's roots soon. Needs more Edie vs Susan right?

BL has been OK this year, last year was the best.
"
Do you watch Rescue Me" on FX? Also get Dennis Leary's "The Job" that was on ABC for 2 seasons several years ago, brilliant stuff. DVD available.

Nope, I haven't seen either. I'll add them to my list of stuff to rent now that most of the shows I watch are winding down for the year.

"The Job " is fantastic and should never have been cancelled. It was mistreated by ABC for some reason. Very dry.

"The Job" was jacked around into different time slots and never stayed in one place long enough to develop a following. That combined with the fact that you need a somewhat sophisticated sense of humor to enjoy the show was definitely what killed it.
