Not Feeling It.

Still trying to like this show, but it's actually really bad. The script writing is ridiculous. Nothing makes sense. It's impossible to suspend disbelief because it's so over the top.

The acting ranges from good to horrible, but that's because the scripts are just so dumb and the characters are forced to deliver lines that are often laffable.

There's also silly sub plots that are of no interest -- like the dowdy maid who is seen as a hot tart by the guys. Further, these segment start to drift into soft-core porn. Weird for a commercial channel, even if it is on cable.

Jessica Lange is an odd character in that she seems to have always lived there, in SoCal, but somehow has a deep Southern accent.

I'm really shocked at the great reviews this show gets because it's really a train wreck in so many ways.
