Goofs

There's a nice close-up of the Baldwin piano and its clearly printed name during the 1840 scenes at the beginning of the first episode. However, the company didn't exist at that time. The Baldwin Company didn't make its first pianos for another 50 years.

User Reviews

The Land of Duh

I fast forwarded through the whole first season on DVD. I suppose that makes me an expert on this show. Wow, dude. I have been watching GLBT-themed productions since 'Boys in the Band'(1970). This is probably the worst. And I hear that here!network is surprised that GLAAD is not giving out GLBT media awards to them. Well, boys and girls, you'll have to come up with something better than this show. Bad writing. Enough gratuitous plastic surgery and body make up to make Michael Jackson cringe. Did I mention bad writing? Bad acting. Even mediocre sex appeal in the casting. Did I mention bad writing? The sexual simulations are worse than soft-core straight cable TV. I didn't think it possible. Did I mention bad writing? I have met 10 year-olds with higher IQs than most of the characters. I particularly loathe the set design. One scene, supposedly set in 1840, has a standard electric lamp on a table and two air conditioning ducts on the walls of the room. Frankly, I think this true horror of a show displays great contempt for its presumed GLBT audience. I know I certainly didn't march for my civil rights for this.
