I suppose if I had a huge yard and could afford to hire a crew to transform it into what I envisioned, I would love this show. But being of more modest means, I was hoping to find something that would show me how to transform my yard on a budget. This ain't it. I was also surprised that she didn't install things like drip irrigation, but maybe in Atlanta that's not necessary? Anyway, I have moved on to the British show Big Dreams Small Spaces, which is much more up my alley. It's about using sweat equity to transform your yard on a very tight budget, And the host explains everything in great detail. Financially, I am somewhere in the middle of these two extremes. Because I am older I can't do the heavy work myself, but I can afford to hire someone to do some of it.

I slogged through four chapters of this and then discovered there are 13 total. No way can I manage to get through nine more episodes of this boring, pointless story. Who the hell cares whether some rich people get conned? They can afford it.

I love Downton Abbey so much that during shut down I binged it for a second and third time. I'm also a huge fan of Christine Baranski, so I was really looking forward to this new series. I haven't been happy with it and after the second episode I realized why. There are few endearing characters like there are in Downton Abbey, and Christine Baranski plays a relentlessly cruel, obnoxious snob, displaying almost none of the delicious wit that she usually shows. The other characters are poorly fleshed out so far. All this is the fault of the writer; I don't know what he was thinking beyond laurel-resting. I'm going to give it a few more chances, but if something doesn't improve it will never make it to season two, at least for me.
