Really? I actually really enjoy Lucy Liu's career-driven woman. To me, it works pretty well. It's Miranda Otto the one I'm having quibbles with. Loved her in the first episode but in the second episode I felt they were trying to turn her into some kind of Bree VanDeeCamp from DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES (red-head an all). Why couldn't they make it so she is the one having an affair? How interesting would it be if she were sleeping with more successful men than her husband because he isn't challenging enough? Or if they each had their arrangements about having sex with other people and only staying together for power reasons? The whole sacrificed wife "I let him cheat on me because I work too much but the second he cheats with someone my friends know it's wrong" deal is not working for me. Otto is fabulous, now give her good material to work with.
Frances O'Connor improved so much from the pilot episode and I reiterate I may be gay but I am crushed on Bonnie Summerville.
