Review
Yet another TV show with a premise that's reasonable for a 2 hour movie but can't possibly work for an entire season.
The dialog is cliché. You know what's going to happen before it happens because you've seen it a thousand times before. If you watch TV to have background noise while performing household chores doing your taxes etc. it's perfect you don't have to think at all.
Sadly after "United States of Tara" and this... thing... I'm removing Toni Collette from my list actors who's presence makes something watchable. I really wonder why they gave this show the green light it has nothing going for it.
