I used to love this show, watching the past seasons on TNT eventhough I have seen them numerous times. This year’s episodes have been, how do I put this, **icky**! There is no chemistry with Amy and her new love interest and she’s acting like a love sick weak woman. Maxine is harsh and the brothers don’t have the quwerks they used to.

What are they trying to do? Is it because \*\*Joan of Arcadia \*\* is a hit that the producer Barbara Hall doesn’t have the time for this Amy? ( I watch them both, there are quite a few cross over actors from both shows)

I heard that all the writers from last season got fired, so apparently someone else was also not happy with the way things were going.
