I hope so. It's one of the best sitcoms currently on tv. All the actresses are very good in their roles.

Since I don't have cable, I had never seen the show before. So I just checked the first season out on DVD and am totally enjoying it. :cool: :D

You can watch season 2 episodes on tvland.com the day after it airs on that channel. That's what I do because I don't have the TVLand channel.

Thanks for the tip!! Since I finished the DVD set, I'll do just that. :cool: :D
