I enjoyed the show but cannot help but see it as a regular TV version of HBO's "Six Feet Under." You have a dysfunctional family of adult children who spend a great deal of time at home with their parents. The patriarch dies unexpectedly in the first episode leaving mom and the kids to figure out how to pick up the pieces including taking over the operation of the troubled family business.
Also, I was struck by the comment that Calista Flockhart's character is supposed to be 38 and the younger sister to Rachel Griffiths. I think casting got this one backwards.
All in all though, it's an engaging show with an excellent cast. Hopefully it will rise above the trouble that was reported bringing it to the small screen.
