I don't know about you, but after the first go around I cringed every time the scene shifted to her family. We know the drill, and I don't think they can afford spend that much air time with her naughty children and her awful husband all in the same room.
Yep. Felt exactly the same way. I wanted to smack the husband upside the head. I think they were trying for comedy - but it didn't play. Instead the hubby and kids came off as annoying.
Too over-the-top. They need to take that down a few notches.Or find a good babysitter - so that we don't see the kids that often.
I felt Laura's first boss was a bright light in a fairly lame supporting cast.
And now he's gone. They didn't build it that well - in part because the show was trying to do too many things at once. Admittedly pilots do have that tendency. But I think the problem is it wanted to be a family sitcom and a mystery/cop show at the same time. Not sure that works.
Agreed...the only interesting character left was her weird assistant..who felt a wee bit stereotypical.
