I came in with low expectations. I'm old enough to have watched the original series, which was quite terrible after the first season or two. I expected this to be as bad or worse, but I have to say I've been pleasantly surprised so far. Don't get me wrong; it's not ever going to be included on lists of the greatest shows ever made, but it is fun and a little poignant , too. I quite like the Elena Roarke character, who is both a little mysterious and a little humble at the same time. It makes her seem more...human, if that makes sense. Ruby is certainly an improvement over Tattoo.
Don't go into this show thinking it'll be a new Lost. It's definitely not that. Just watch for a fun hour of TV - a perfect summer series.
Dave and Odette Annable were really fun to watch in this episode, too. They looked like they were having a great time playing each other. It's to the show's credit that they hired a real-life married couple to play these characters, since they really know each other and can pull off the Freaky Friday body-switch in a way that wasn't TOO over-the-top and ridiculous.
