I recently found out about this show and am now hooked. I've caught up online with the first two seasons--Glenn Close is amazing as the amoral attorney Patty Hewes. The second season also featured William Hurt and Marcia Gay Harden. When did TV start attracting such great actors? The third season is now underway, with Madchen Amick playing the mistress of a Bernie Madoff character. Anyone else out there a fan of this show? (I don't have a TV, but I believe it's on FX Monday nights.)

we've been watching since S1. Great first season. Okay second, but i don't remember much from S2. So far so good with S3. We enjoy it. i haven't yet quite figured out what's gonna happen. They're doing a nice job with that - much like S1.

Great episode this week! Starting with Madchen laying unconscious in a hospital bed, one black eye, tubes in her nose--Shelly in the hospital, knocked out again! Loved Close's performance when the detective is questioning her about Tom. (I like that actor, Tom Noonan, playing the detective. His performance in Synechdoche, N.Y. stood out for me.) And I loved Lily Tomlin when she laid it out to her husband, what a piss-poor father he had been, and was. The A.D.A. I recognize from the Darren Aronofsky film, Pi. He plays one of the radical Qabalistic/Hassidic Jews. And what do you think of Martin Short as Tobin's lawyer? I'm not sure yet. I've been trying to see him as a dramatic actor. Then he's standing on the sidewalk in front of the TVs in the store window, all projecting his face, the dramatic moment builds, somewhere in another part of city the father has set in motion a terrible act, Short stares into the screens... and pulls that face! Cracked me up. Then a fabulous ending. Great TV!
