OK I admit that I'm biased as I live in Dallas, but this show was fantastic. It's one of the few shows which realistically portrays Dallas and it's residents (The other obviously is the show "Cheaters").
The writing is the best part of this show as the production budget is one of the smallest of any TV show out there. The producers have created a show with the PERFECT formula.
1) Great writing 2) Great acting 3) Great Directing 4) Low cost to produce.
So naturally Fox screws with the show's time-slot, then cancels it for poor ratings.
Colin Hanks definitely sounds like his dad (unintentionally) but he still plays his part to perfection. Bradley Whitford surprises everyone with his physical comedic skills. This guy has some *seriously* good acting chops. Jenny Wade even manages to get the accent down after a few episodes.
Don't get me wrong, the first two episodes are pretty weak compared to the others, but you need to watch those to get some back-story. Just slog through them to get to episodes 3 - 20. They get progressively funnier from 3 on.
Great show, and I had a great time recognizing all the Dallas locations mentioned in each episode. I hope they release this on DVD or at least make it available via Netflix streaming for everybody.
