Poll question: Do you like the TV show "The Riches"
I love Eddie Izzard's standup routine, but this show bores the everliving shit out of me.

3. I voted 'love it' because
there was no 'LIKE it' choice. It's an alright show.. I haven't watched real tv in a while so it's hard for me to compare it to anything besides NewsHour or Good Times, but we can't not watch it because we're fans of Izzard. We saw his live show in Philadelphia when he was touring 3 or 4 years ago :D
I'm not really in love with the characters yet.. his is good, and the daughter's alright.

4. It pretty much bores me to death too.
I looked forward to it before it came on, and was expecting to love it, and I like Minnie Driver. So kinda disappointing for it to be so bad.

6. Voted "love it" but just like it
It got a tremendous buildup in the press, so I was expecting more (silly me--why am I trusting the entertainment media). But I do like it--I enjoy the cons--I'm a big fan of David Mamet, and the setups in this show remind me of his stuff.

However, if it gets TiVoed on a Monday night, I might not get around to watching it till the following weekend when I've run out of other stuff. Not a top priority like Lost or Heroes or Battlestar Galactica (well...BSG was a priority...now waiting for the new season...in 2008--gaaaah!)
