The Deep End

Originally sold as Grey's Anatomy meets LA Law. And I must say, it is a great throwback to what Grey's used to be before the actors got all demanding and started getting killed off, in slow stupid ways. (Nobody gets hit by a car anymore? Or shot when an angry widower who brings a grudge and a gun into Seattle Grace? That's good tv.) But I digress, back to the point.

ABC's new drama has heart, comedy, drama, and of course sex. The sex scenes could be more steamy, but I kind of like how the show is starting off slow. Teasing us a little.

From the first episode, you begin to care about the characters and are interested in their stories. That kind of attention capture is important for the audience. We feel like we are sitting in a car, that just hits the gas and keeps going. There is no time to slow down. Explanations come in 30 second intervals and in hush whispers. This catches the audience up so we know what the hell is going on, but it also keeps the backstory quite, which is where backstory belongs. And it doesn't give away too much, too early.

My recommendation: tune in and be prepared to enjoy yourself.
