What the.....??

What were Toni Collette and John Corbett thinking signing on for this? I read Toni Collette is signed on for 7 years. Well, hopefully the show won't last any more than the 12 already assigned. I struggled through one episode. It is one bizarre show. Toni Collette's character has four personalities and from the episode I watched, it went from bizarre, to weird to whatever. Agree with everyone else, no plot. It is just Toni Collette and the rest of the family trying to deal with her 4 personalities when they come out and no one really being thrilled about it when they do. The kids have got their own interesting lives. Certainly not the typical family as we know it. The show is such a shame as Toni Collett and John Corbett are such great actors. They have had such winners in their careers. I just hope this does not pull there careers down.
