Really love this show, but when it's on only once a week at 11 PM, with no repeats to be found anywhere... Are you guys trying to kill it???? (If anyone out there knows where or when missed episodes can be seen, please post it here...)
So I've really enjoyed watching this show ever since I stumbled onto it. It's different, well-acted and thought-provokingly true to life. This past episode provoked me to express a couple of thoughts. I loved the storyline for Judith reconnecting with an old flame except for a few things. Judy apologizes for actions that both her and Will engage in but Will doesn't. Later when they meet up to talk about the kiss, Will's reasons for having an affair have nothing to do with his feelings for Judith. They're all about how crappy his current life is. Then Judith, a strong, competent lawyer not only doesn't call him on wanting to ruin two marriages and multiple lives but also apologizes for not wanting to have an affair, the right thing to do. This plotline underscores why women are still not equal to men in many aspects of life. At the very least, Judith could've empathized with Will without apologizing, one thing women do too, too much for things for which they're often not responsible. I know this situation occurs often and it might've been based on a true story. I wish in this fictionalized version that Judith had stood up for herself more (although she DOES say no 2 the affair) and called Will out on his wanting her to be essentially, his post-work drink before he went home to face the music of his life. I watch this show for the strength and integrity of its characters. That's what I think is the theme of Erica's being in therapy as well as showing the potential payoffs of utilizing those qualities. I'm still watching the show. Just sayin'!

You can watch it on HULU. I have a hard time staying awake also.
