Six Degrees - "What You Wish For" - 11/02/2006
Spoiler:
This show has improved since its premiere. Although the coincidences still occur, they have taken a back seat to strong character development. I hope there are enough viewers to keep this show alive, as it has become one of my favorite new series.

Glad there is someone else watching this show. It has improved since the first week but I don't have high hopes of it staying around. One of my favorite new shows of the season.

Me too, I think this show is highly underated; the stories are very interesting when you give them a chance. I really hope it pulls out of the ratings doldrums and gets a decent chance to continue.
I'm surprised at the people who are turned off by the coincidences on this show (or any show for that matter). Take any large city, observe everyone for a while, and I guarantee you will find a group of 6 strangers whose lives intertwine in amazing ways. Make a show about those 6 people, and voila!
If a show was about boring normal things happening to boring normal people, we wouldn't be watching.

I love seeing Shiri Appleby on a weekly basis via this show. Stephen's storyline was funny in that fatherhood-as-a-trainwreck way (everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong with Stephen watching his son for 2 days). Didn't much care about the ex-con's subplot, and Laura's subplot seemed superfluous, but Laura's reaction to the kiss that JT planted on her produced one of the biggest LOL I've heard in quite a while.
