I enjoyed the first season, I will admit that I didn't pay 100% attention to it, I had it on while I was doing things around the house. I didn't care too much for Dana Sue most of the first season, her bitter and negative attitude while probably more accurate than the other characters got old quickly. But as I'm watching the next two seasons, it really has become unenjoyable. I like to watch shows that are somewhat realistic and relatable. This show is not that. Everything all these women are involved in; having multiple businesses that all would be full time jobs, all the men issues, the kid issues, church, church groups, art classes, planning events all the time, recalling the mayor, drinking margarita's (no matter what crisis their kids are facing) at least once a week, writing books...etc. Like any of this is realistic. The acting really lacks. The chemistry between the women in this show and with any and all the men is so awkward. None of it looks or feels natural. They try to use some terms that southern folks use but they do a very poor job of delivery. I swear if they try to get Maddie to say "bless your heart" again, I'm going to lose it. **Spoiler** Why is Maddie so angry at Bill when he tells her about being Issacs father? He didn't even know about him. Her reaction was so overacted it wasn't even funny, the way she shot up off the chair and it flung back, it was just horrible acting. Helen needs to stop with the over the top dramatic reaction to everything that happens.
Hopefully the directing will get better but like a lot of shows, this show has probably ran it's course.
