From the premiere, it's hard to gauge this uneven show. It merits several more looks.

It's a somber, often leaden affair, beset with stiff dialogue.

It would be nice if Angela’s persona were truly distinctive, but, played by Ms. Spencer, she may turn out to be just another very pretty face.

Put simply, Spencer lacks the heft for the role.

The acting in the kickoff episode is awfully anemic, and that's no lie. [24 Jul 2006, p.33]

Variety Brian Lowry
Silly, poorly cast and full of clunky dialogue.

Loved the show. Hate that it has been cancelled. Why can't they END a season if they don't expect it to come back? Why must we be left hanging forever about a show?

Mimi P gave it a9:
