Anyone else here catch the pilot episode? Looks to me like a series with potential.

I caught about 40 minutes of it. I was impressed. Of course, it seems to be set in Philadlephia--at least I think so--I missed the beginning, but I saw the SEPTA bus that the little boy took to visit his "girlfriend". I will keep watching.

Yup, it's set in Philly. The second episode airs on Sunday evening and according to tv.yahoo.com the pilot will be rebroadcast on Tuesday July 27 here at 7pm Central so probably there at 8PM Eastern.

FWIW, the consensus over at the imdb.com message boards is that it's a good show but that it's likely doomed because it's a good show.

Can you fill those of us who never heard about it in?
What network? What's it about?

ABC--Sunday night--at 10 I think here on the eastcoast.

It is set in Philadelphia--about a suburban type family--daughter is set to go off to college, but finds herself pregnant. Son #1 is a bit of an oddball--and son #2 is a bit of a nerd. Mom suddenly also finds herself pregnant, and dad just quit his job.

I agree--a good show that will probably be pulled.
