After the pilot and 1st season ep I am thrilled ! This is a dark troublesome and sexy show which is a refreshing change to all the too nice things coming out from Hollywood. The story is about a couple screen writers trying to keep their jobs and self identity in modern day Hollywood, while exploring the tough world of couplehood, kids, temptations and out of marriage affairs. The show has great pace, fantastic imaginary scenes and very well done sex scenes that could only be done on "Showtime".
The couple is played by Eric Stolz (killing zoe) who believes his life is filmed for studio audiences so he talks to us (the camera) and explains his thoughts and decisions and asks our approval as a sort of focus group,which allows hilarious scenes to occur. Playing the wife is Felicity Huffman (Frasier,wife of William H. Macy) who plays a clinically depressed woman ( brilliantly) that has very sharp mood swings and you never know how she will wake up in the morning she brings so much dept to the character you will be amazed. another great surprise in there is a very sexy role played by Justine Bateman (family ties, who knew !!) believe me you won't recognize her.
to conclude this show has enormous potential if the writing staff will keep up the good work we will have another great choice to see for many years so go see it and take a good look at yourself afterwards.
