Tv series is something the americans do well and are leagues above the british. A fact.

Apparently they've won quite a few awards for the series, and it does give us an insight to how some of these families live, Like i said, I wasn'y overly keen when fisrt watching it, but it grows on you as you begin to take on board whats happening.

I admit its not everyones cup of tea, but its changed my outlook on life

I take it you like it lasto ??
