I really like this Showtime Series. Sure, it’s pretty derivative, but it’s still good. This week’s episode about Thanksgiving dinner falling apart (then resurrected at some level) was especially good. And the guy who plays Michael is such a good actor.

Now, I’m originally from Rhode Island, so I’m a bit biased. They obviously filmed much (all?) of this in Providence, so it kinda hits home for me. And they don’t always get the accent right, but they do a passable job (that would be “jawb” 🙂 ).

Anyone else watching?
