I thought it was flipping great! James Spader made me feel old though. I remember how beautiful he was in Pretty in Pink. Middled aged and bald now but still very cool. Well worth a watch. On Sky Living.

Very impressed-it'll be my new must watch-agree James Spader is great in it-floppy hair of the 80's well and truly gone!

Absolutely loved this. Hopefully it won't go off the boil.

Is it very very wrong that I still find Spader sexy attractive?

Thought so.

No, it isn't. He's very charismatic but I didn't want to be the first to say it Wink.

Really enjoyed it. I didn't realise it was James Spader until he smiled!

Episode 2 has me really hopeful that they can keep it going-totally hooked-although I did say that about the mentalist too and ended up giving up after series 2 when I felt it totally lost the plot! Sad

I've been very pleasantly surprised by it, I've got very low expectations when it comes to TV but it's been pretty gripping so far.

I never actually found James Spader particularly attractive in anything. Apparently I do now Blush

Just watched the 1st 2 episodes, it's really good. I can see many cliches in the pipeline though, I hope they at least space 'em out.

Just caught up on all the episodes to date. Love it so far although some of the plots are a tad unbelievable.

Quick question though, who is watching the house?

I must agree with all of you that it's great escapist viewing.I am also alarmed at just how attracted I am to James Spader!I did read in an article that he shaves his head for the role so he's not actually bald which makes me feel slightly better about my new obsession!

So, James Spader is obviously her real father? N'est ce pas?

Love this show too but am I the only one thinking this?

This Friday you say???

Oh thank god I started nosying around different corners Thanks

I have absolutely no qualms in admitting that I watch it 50% for show and 50% James Spader.

Wasn't that way at the start, but now I am a little bit in love with him. Not helped by watching him in The Secretary.

I joined MN for serious advice/reasons but so far it has just managed to highlight fact that I am clearly turning into a raging nymph! Blush
