Review by jlfittro

I am sorry to see a series that was intriguing for the first 15 minutes degenerate so quickly into ridiculous farce. A sensitive subject matter that could have been handled in an intelligent, thoughtful way is made absurd, more so by the hysterical wife, not by any stretch of the imagination a realistic partner for the David Tennant character. I may be watching the wrong program, this is supposed to be a farce. Certainly not smart enough to be satire. Fans will tell me to go elsewhere. And I do, to the better productions of past years. I see this type of programming as the continuation of extreme dumbing down of it's target audience. I didn't realize it was supposed to be farcical or perhaps I wouldn't be so disappointed.
