I have a feeling that not a lot of people know about this show, but I think it's fantastic. Show's called The Riches on FX (Monday nights, 9pm), starring Minnie Driver and the guy who plays her husband (I'm really bad at actor names), anyway,he's awesome, the show's awesome. It's about a family of con-artists trying to live straight. The writing is spot on and the acting is phenomenal (?). Anywho, just thought I'd let you know if you're looking for something different to watch....and please don't get on me about the irreality of the show...suspend your disbelief for an hour, it'll be fun!!!:rolleyes:

It's worth watching for Eddie Izzard alone. The guy can clearly carry a TV drama and I hope his career goes nuts after this/because of this.
I watched the first three episodes of this show and gave up. Talk about set-up, set-up, set-up with very little payoff. Also, Minnie and Eddie slip in and out of accents so often it's distracting. Also it doesn't help that Minnie Driver is butt ugly. Also, the production quality on FX shows is horrendous. Also, there is no Santa Claus and candy is bad for you.
Let me know if this show gets any better. I was really hoping i would like it.

Wow dude...Minnie Driver butt ugly?? That's harsh, you've got high standards friend.
I haven't noticed the accent thing a whole lot, but now that you've pointed it out I'm sure I'll catch it. Either way, I think it's better than A LOT of tv out there.
