    Darker that the Riches, and definitely interesting on its own. One to watch.

    The first episode was a little dark, in a good way. I will give the series six episodes to pull me in, willing at this point. Give it a chance.

    The inhabitants are either dead in a metaphoric cemetery, or they are in the Christian Hell.

    Great concept. I am hoping that it will be coming back after the last episode coming up.

    I like the concept of this witness protection program community. The actors are doing a great job at portraying their characters, the sets are decent, and the shows leave me wanting to see more. Kudos to the production staff and the actors!

    Superb, finally a TV show that creates a mood that lingers after the episode is watched....and my friends and I can't stop watching. Actors are magnificent. The Brogans feel like a real family, as do the Oglives and the rest. Can't wait to see Ninth episode....make it soon!

    Murphy is adept at creating clever mind games between his characters, but moments of true suspense or fright are few and far between.

    An intermittently interesting summer potboiler with a creepy "Twin Peaks"-meets-"American Beauty" vibe, with a little of "The Riches" thrown in for good measure.

    Fans of "The Sopranos" looking for a new Sunday-night must-see may find it here - though perhaps not fans driven to fits by that HBO hit's ambiguous conclusion.
