Yeah the first episode had to introduce the characters and set up the story so I could see how you might have thought it dragged.
And as far as my vote for “first series to be canceled”, I caught one episode of The Undercovers. Pretty much only watched it for the eye candy, and guess what… eye candy isn’t even enough to make that show successful. It’s really that bad.
I forgot to record Running Wilde, so I’m gonna see if it’s online and then record future shows if I like it.
