I watched it solely for Paul Gross. His character was *so* unlike any other I've seen him play, but was still very interesting. Some of the other aspects of the show weren't anywhere as good, but *sighs happily* shirtless Paul in the first episode? Not bad. Not bad at all.

Can he still carry off shirtless? I need to check this out.

Pretty well. He's certainly not let himself go at all. He might have recently shaved or waxed or something, his chest was very smooth and shiny. But VERY nice to look at

You've convinced me!

I'm sure someone will have screencaps up tomorrow. But if you've a spare hour and ABC or HULU has it up, there are definitely worse ways you could be wasting your time. (Although fast forwarding until 12/15 minutes or so into it if you just needed to see that scene wouldn't be a bad idea either)

Just found some trailers. Dear God that looks bad.

But yeah, Paul Gross looks very, very good.

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I had VERY low expectations for it. If I see caps anywhere, I'll post them or link them here though. Just to keep people in the loop. :)

I look forward to seeing caps. I'll probably watch an ep or two just because of the Paul Gross factor. It's nice to see him in a series again.

Paul's definitely having fun in this role. The three women costars are not terribly good in their roles, but maybe they'll grow into the parts.

Hee! I watched it both for Paul Gross and Jamie Ray Newman (Cadman). The beginning was painful, and I get that they were trying to introduce the characters, but it was a bit clunky. It did get a bit better and I rather like how greasy slick the devil is mixed with all three women pausing with looks of "Is he supposed to be for real?" Hopefully it will pick up the pace a bit more - I'm labeling it as okay with potential right now.

Yeah, the beginning was rather choppy. But the little snippets they started showing of Paul after the wish kept my interest.

That's a good way to label it, I think. Wait and see what happens and how it progresses.

oooh, shirtless!
