Not a bad show when compared to the talent shows and reality / dating shows we are bombarded with on network television. Usually you have to go to the cable stations to get decent original programing so it is nice to see that broadcast programing it finally starting to get back to scripted entertainment. Only aspect I found fault with so far was the contractor was slightly more likable then you would want for a victim at the beginning of a show. However as the show goes on and the plot starts to unravel and pull you in, it becomes easier to forget about the guy. The underlying plots and interpersonal relationships within the town make it seem like this might be a supernatural Desperate Housewives. Impressive beginning, looking forward to what they have in store.
