UNReal

When I read the article saying that one of the best shows on cable was a Lifetime show I thought it was a joke. Then I read a few more articles all claiming the same thing. Then I was interested enough to look up some information about the show in Wikipedia.
The plot sounded like it could be interesting. It starred Shiri Appleby who I thought was the best part of Roswell....
So I watched the pilot and was hooked. The writing was cynical and right on point. The characters were all terrible people. Yet somehow they were also fragile and endearing. I actually cared how things turned out.
I am having a hard time waiting for the promised second season. Hopefully if Lifetime drops the ball Netflix will pick it up and run with it.
