It was okay

Until the plot included the potential moms. It seems like there is just too much going on now..

when the show revolved around the doctor and Kyle trying to get his son, it was relatively easy to follow and interesting. When all those women and the extra plot points were added... I lost interest very fast.. Sad because I have loved Michael grazadei since his young and restless days and I want his show to succeedd but I just cant...

Dont blast me for grammar errors its hard posting on the phone

Wait, so you feel that adding potential mom characters to a show that's all about a lottery to find potential mothers...is too much? Sorry, but I guess you should stick to simple shows that don't have any overarching story that you can just enjoy week to week without any thought. No offense, just an observation based on your rather odd complaint.

Stupid people do exist and they mainly live on the imdb boards!

Okay, maybe I didn't word my post right... I find the mom storylines boring.. their introduction was good but the subsequent plot involving them doesn't catch or hold my interest.. maybe if they weren't stuck in the building... but again...just my opinion

Maybe the lottery winners might lead a rebellion against then government next season when thru discover their embroyos are being controlled.

I totally get what you're saying. I don't think that the plot became confusing, but it just became sort of nonsensical and scattered. I was waiting for the season finale in particular to tie all of the subplots together, but instead it kind of just left them all to go in their own direction.

There just wasn't enough done to make sure that all of these plots felt connected in some way. They're all tenuously tied to the lottery itself, but otherwise they aren't part of a whole the way they should be. That's probably where the boredom set in - the feeling that the show was going to create a cohesive storyline.

I just saw on episode on demand and they had women wanting to be moms already. When I heard lottery I thought it would be interested women would have their name picked at random or that all women, whether they wanted it or not, would be randomly selected. I don't like the shows where they have people competing to be chosen as the wife/husband/girlfriend or boyfriend (except a few scenes from Flavor of Love, b/c of how over the top some of the characters were or the parody of them Burning Love) I don't find any of the characters on those shows interesting and think they are boring. I'll probably watch one more episode but if it is all about the moms to be that is it.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
