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.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

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!
 
:cheersmate: to the producers and casting agency for such a phenomenal and unconventional pick!
