It is turning out to be quite complex and not just about boinking the neighbors. Just when I was getting sick of the skeletor daughter, her bit turns out to be hilarious. Janet impressed me yet again. :) "Tales of the City" sounds like something I would like too. Why haven't you mentioned this sooner? ::squinty eyes::

Where have you been, missy? Go rent it immediately!

My problem is that I missed the pilot, and am worried that I'm missing a lot of context. To the lone dissenter: no, I'm not so sure that if it'd been on a cable net it'd have been better. It was originally pitched for one of those outlets, but none bit. Maybe having one of the the big boys providing support for the production saved it from being a John From Cincinnati flop? A wonderfully complex series, and I suspect that this is so because they had to concentrate on the writing instead of boobies-a-flopping.

I know a few people who started watching 3-4 episodes in and got right into it. Are there any lingering questions you have that you think may have been addressed in the first episode?

On both shows, she started kind of meek and unsure, now look at her. As both series progressed, so does her character. She's brilliant.

At the start of Deadwood she's a laudanum addicted non-entity, but by the end, she's boinking the sheriff and rivalling Al for the lead role in sticking it to Hearst. Swingtown? A domestic-bliss addled frau, toying with boinking Harry Reems, and now gunning to stick it to Nixon. seaguy: yes. But I'm going to fork over the princely sum of $1.99 and watch it on Amazon Unbox. (My question: did they boink the Dekkers? I'm wondering if they've already violated the marital oaths. Don't answer it, though; I'll get back to you.)

I find the parallels between Mad Men fascinating. You really see how change is something women embrace and chase and men wait for. I am sorry this is not on Showtime which would find a more mature and suitable audience for what is clearly an interesting adult drama that is beyond sex but needs the freedom that cable offers

The thing I find interesting is this show isn't about Swingers so much as unhappy marriages. The couple that are swingers have the most stable marriage of the 3. See, I don't see any of the three marriages as particularly unhappy. In a state of transition, but not unhappy.

Makes no sense since we are in Packer territory. But I noticed they will air the show on SUNDAY morning at 1:35 a.m. Just a heads up for Swingtown fans to check their viewing schedules, you may have some football screwing up your viewing pleasure tonight.

Aside from loving the show in general, I would love to see the know-it-all obnoxious daughter get some sort of commeupance. I just cannot stand her character at all and this whole "forbidden love" storyline with her teacher just makes me roll my eyes. I'd love to see what happens when school begins for her and he starts teaching there.

I'm kind of tired of the entire Miller family in general, I know they are pretty much the central characters of the show but they seem to just grind the show to a halt when they appear. They have their moments, but not often.

Agreeance on the Millers. For a chick that's supposed to be an egghead, the daughter's a dumbass, while Bruce is quickly turning into a caricature. And the hidden lurve between Mommy and Janet's hubby? Spare me. Loved Capt. Dekker's reax to Janet in the kitchen. She's quickly becoming the most interesting character on the show.
