really? i really think it's lost touch with itself. i loved veronica and her bloke, i think she provided some tether to reality after fiona went. now it's the maguires, which means that things are going to go cccrrraaaazzzeeee, which will be annoying. and the tattoo thing was bollocks, imho. no-one would do that to a small baby.
having said that, the second ep on e4 was a bit better. i really think they'll have to watch that it doesn't turn into a cartoon, though. only the children seem real any more.
