Not very interested in getting to know this show after reading reviews about misleading ads. Its like a sucker punch. Besides we've more than too much serious stuff in the daily news... Who needs more heavyness to carry or think about?

THIS IS A DRAMA. Why do people insist on billing dramas as comedies?! The three stars are for the acting and scene sets. Much of this film was copied from To Wong Foo, thanks for everything! Julie Newmar. The dressmaker, the costumes and beautiful dresses, the weird towns people. Let's not forget death....three deaths in all for this movies....how can it be a comedy?! I really hate when I want to laugh and end up watching a drama that was billed as a comedy.....and is not funny. If you want drama this is an okay film but if you want to laugh look elsewhere. Kate is great as always and Judy Davis is fantastic! The ideas stolen from To Wong Foo are just too obvious for this to be a great film.

DEFINITELY NOT A COMEDY! I don't know who categorizes these movies, but this was not a comedy. It was one of the worst movies we have seen. BUT if you like death and sadness, this is your movie.
