This show was great. Excellent cast and ongoing story lines. Would have been great for more seasons but unfortunately it was another example of a show being too smart. Wish someone else would have picked it up.

I can't get enough of this show!! Perfect casting ...so smart, sassy and full of laughter and heart ! I so wish that the p.t.b. would have trusted in the brilliance of the show and cast ...even without the input of Sorkin, it would have thrived as a series indefinitely!!
