I saw this last night for the first time and missed the pilot, do they ever rerun it?

The show seemed odd, but interesting. Whats up with the cross dressing kid? Is it just thrown in there cause Izzard likes that shit or is there a back story.

The daughters kinda cute too.

The transvestitish son was part of the story before Izzard was involved.

Solid performances all around, and the writing is quite good. Izzard's improv pep talk based on the rock was great!

I'm trying to like this show, but I'm just not interested in these characters.
Travelers? I'm in the majority and never heard of them before.

Yeah, it seems to be well acted, but I'm just bored.

I am also having trouble finding interest in this. The first episode was watchable, but I have been pretty much bored to tears since then.

That is a good movie. It was on TV the other day. I liked the episode. The only thing that seemed strange to me is that he would not what Eminent Domain meant.

Same here. I lasted 2 1/2 episodes, and I just found myself bored with the whole thing.

It's a shame. I like Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver, but this show just didn't grab me.

Count me in as bored as well. Saw the last ep and it felt like 2 hours... it was even recorded and I forwarded through commercials.
