Has anyone caught the show yet?  What an absolute role reversal for William H Macy   :o

yeah I have seen the first couple of episodes. It's good but a little all over the map with so many characters/plot lines.

Indeed, supposedly Fiona leaves the show early this season, which will likely be a major change.

It's ran for 8 consecutive seasons on the BBC, so there's likely some well thought out plot lines that have already been fleshed out.

I will stick around just because I like Wm H Macy and think he's having a ball as Frank.

I still can't get over how hilarious it is to see him in this role!
