I watched with some fascination to see if it might be different than what I imagined it would be like. I was disappointed. I'm all for a different life style, if there aren't children involved, but the children's POVs, for the most part, seemed to be against living like this. It wasn't in their best interest, so how can this man inflict his wants on them like this? On the flip side, I would be interested to know how he would feel if the shoe was on the other foot? What if one or more of the women wanted to "branch out" and have themselves another gentleman? This seems very one-sided and unfair to all but him.
As far as the show, I guess since we don't see much of this (yet), it may pioneer to what's to come, but I hope not. It's like a mini-soap opera and the fantasy soap operas don't hurt real kids.
