So far I love it all, but I do worry about The OC syndrome which seems to be hitting Grey’s Anatomy now. Still, Rebecca came in at the perfect time, though I could have prolonged a few of the other stories or given Tommy and his wife (see, I still forget her name) something to actually do on the show.

Brothers & Sisters is my second favorite new show of the year — behind Friday Night Lights, of course — but I have to say that I do share one concern of Couch Tater: that they are burning through plots too quickly. This is what happened in the first season of The O.C., and look what happened in seasons two and three of that show. (It made for a killer first season, though!) I just hope they can keep up the pace and not devolve into something too over the top.

However, I agree with TV Addict on one thing for sure. I think the addition of Emily VanCamp’s character was perfectly done. She needed to enter the picture when the family was still raw from William’s infidelity and lies. If they waited too long the Walker clan’s anger and uneasiness towards her would have seemed more petty. They have loads more storyline potential this way. Also, I might be biased because I love EVC so much.

CouchTater clearly does not “get” Brothers & Sisters, or understand the modern-day morons who will not take the time to THINK, let alone “enjoy the ride” while a plot builds…but would rather watch bad karaoke, people scream over suitcases being opened, and try to answer 5th grade questions. Sad, but true.

Thus, we get ABC’s “Bingo Night,” and no Arrested Development.
