I wouldn't say that.  I'm less than interested in it, but my husband is watching it.

Of course, he watched Sex in the City on his own, too - I couldn't stomach that at all...

Ha! Funny, that. Richard really liked SITC (the earlier episodes, anyway - I think he had a crush on Samantha) but won't have anything to do with this show. 

I want to know what the new guy on the block is all about. The gun and the maps . . . private detective? Police? Maybe investigating whatever's in the box - which we now know contains human remains . . . hmmm . . .
I know I'm late - where's the booze?

I'd compare it more to Six Feet Under than SATC... its a bit of froth with some undercurrents of darkness, but nothing too heavy. Just enough suspense to keep you hanging on until the next episode...

I wouldnt say i'm fanatical but I enjoy it and I like seeing actresses of my age getting something decent to perform!

It also reminds me of that film Heathers.  It has been compared to Twin Peaks but it's not as crpyptic as that.

Thank god it's not as creepy as Twin Peaks! I still have nightmares about the dancing midget and the first time Bob came out of hiding from behind a chair!   :o

Mindy if you have the Living+1 and/or the E4+1 channels you can juggle the two shows. I know, cause I do ;)

Well, I can't stay up any later unfortunatly.  But I THINK America's Next Top Model is on Sunday too.   :)  I might try it that way.

I'm a week ahead because of E4.  I enjoyed the first three, but the fourth one bored me to tears.  I went and had a Lush bath half way through.   ;)

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

America's Next Top Model and Charmed are both repeated on Saturday nights, too. I have my complaints about TV here, but the +1 channels and the repeated programs isn't one of them :)
