The characters, costumes and set design glued me to my seat. It's a series that's good right from the Pilot. I can tell that a lot of thought was put into the creation and execution of the show. I'm not a fan of the romance genre and can still say that this show is worth the watch. I love that the minor characters have a life of their own. I also love that the show can still evolve without the main characters. This TV series doesn't have to depend on one or two characters. The whole cast is amazing.
