I heard good things about it and caught what seemed like the fourth or fifth show in the first season. Then, as I remember it they moved the show so I missed a couple. I saw one more and then they had some sort of mid-season reruns where I kept seeing only the ones I had already seen. Then there was something like two months of seasonal specials or some other rot. A few shows got thrown in at seeming random intervals to keep interest up and then about nine months of nothing but an occasional advert.

By the time the second season rolled around I had just about forgotten about it. Besides the plot line broke the stories up so much and the broadcast season was so fractured and the breaks so long I never could tell you who was who or what was going on.

Seemed like an interesting story that would have worked and gained my interest if they had just picked a time and stuck with it for a reasonable number of episodes.

These sorts of shows are essentially soap operas. Never much like the standard soap operas but they keep the exact same schedule and fill it with new shows day after day for years. I know a few ladies who are addicted to their soaps and every weekday at the same time they drop what they are doing and watch. And have done so for decades. What they lack in originality, acting, and scripts they make up in consistency.

The first weekly I really liked was 'Hill Street Blues'. A fine show with credible stories and deep characters. 'The Shield' is another one. A dark one. Recently I got into 'Dexter'. Another dark one.

Dexter brings an interesting perspective. A law and order crime show from the perspective of a well mannered sociopath and serial killer that has used his talents to help clean up evil in Miami in his own special way.
