I’ve noticed a lot of shows on even network are trying to be “edgy”, or at least as far as they can get away with.  I like for at least one character to be someone I can relate to in some way, to understand what he’s going through.  Characters who lie and cheat and murder I don’t have much sympathy for, so I don’t get interested in what they do.  The episode I watched just moved from one character to another, and since I had no idea what they were talking about, I couldn’t really get interested in it.  I suppose that, like a soap opera, if I just sat there and watched it for a week or so I’d start to understand what was going on, but I guess I don’t have the patience for soap-opera style shows.  If it doesn’t catch my interest within the first fifteen minutes, I’m looking for something else.
