contrary to one of the other comment ( which and actually and i be happy to see and seem to have be in the minority ) . interesting and different and off beat and down to earth and refreshing and real . interest character and well portrayed and try to make it real and make it work in a non usual family situation . patricia heaton be very good and very attractive . you could see the potential and and i be glad to see her eventually make it big . nikki cox be interesting and a lot realer than in her late teen sexpot role in that marry with child ripoff . unusual and off beat plot and execution make it really something special in my opinion and way beyond your average family base sitcom ( and without take the more low brow approach of mwc and it clone not that i have anything against mwc and but i think that this show accomplish something more significant ) . i would have like to see it go far . it certainly deserve more of a shot and a do gaby hofmann and a the central character .
