They've assembled a Rolls Royce of talent for this, and every one performs admirably. The problem is, this is the WORST idea for a TV series since My Mother the Car. It is an Everest of a lousy idea to have a multiple personality mom as the motor for a half-hour series. It's a great showcase for Toni's acting talents...but that's what it boils down to, a stunt to showcase an actress's range. It was much better artistically and commercially when it was called The Tracy Ullman Show. Each character was fully developed as a sketch, and Tracy could return to each character week after week without having to worry about a narrative arc.
I liked Juno and think Diablo has a real ear and eye for quirky speech and behavior, but she doesn't know when an idea should be a movie or a TV series. This might have made an OK one-off film, where you have time for development and you're not bound by the 28 minute clock. But this just seems half baked and striving for something it never can achieve....a real family trying to cope with an amazingly rare syndrome that has lasted for 17 years!!!! Gimme a break. I liked Sybil and Sally Field justly earned her Emmy, but this stinker gives the syndrome a really bad and somewhat boring name.
