It is one of the better soaps. My other favourite was The Sopranos. I
had no interest in watching a program about New Jersey mobsters but I
got the last part of the last episode and realized that I had probably
missed something good. I borrowed some the series on DVDs from the
library,but they did not have Season One. I watched the reruns several
times and kept missing the first episode. I finally got to see it on a
plane returning from Europe.
