Bill C Here we go...
Ham on white bread, sho' nuff (halfway through the show). Nice explosion. Hotties. Nate Haden appears to have the acting range of the Jujyfruit I just ate. yeah. More later.

-George's Bond villain accent was fanatstic. The utter stupidity of the mob boss plotline less so.

jjfc- I don't like the brother love triangle. They should have stuck the so-so looking brother with the "true love" story. And allowed the cute one to philander.

-Which one's the cute one? yeah - Alex the long haired right? ~

Bill C Going off jjfc's comments, it appears that Alex (Zack Silva) is "the cute one," and Louis (Nate Haden, who actually does have some acting range--and it's all smarmy smartass) is the "so-so looking" one.
After watching the entire episode...it has promise, at least. We've got our requisite asshole (George the gold-digging himbo, and yes that accent just puts him over the top --in both senses which?), the snowballing event (Louis sleeping with the daughter of a mob kingpin in New Jersey, the thing that started all this--and she later says he raped her and totally sets her father off), and the requisite skank (Andrea's "friend," who makes a move on George right after Andrea breaks up with him).

-Ah that's my take as well. Alex with his hair is definitely the cutie. But I like the take that they have going now. I like that the goodlooking one is the supposedly sweet one and the alright brother is the jerk.

jjfc- Oh yeah, you got it right. Sorry, different tastes and all - I should have been clearer. I don't mind that the so-so one is a jerk because then you could do the reformed by true love plotline. Just that you don't want to die down the really cute one (Alex) when the "true love" plotline inevitably gets serious.
