Seemed like a good idea at the time...

Warning: Spoilers
This show had so much promise, a great cast executing what appeared to be a true "who done-it"but somewhere along the final episode the entire thing fell apart. Right away, my immediate grievance was the complete lack of realism. Nowhere in reality can a couple in America raise FOUR kids and put them thru schoolAND start their own successful business AND have this big lavish home, but it's not reality, it's TV.

So here's the plot in a nutshell, a newly retired couple is dealing with learning what life looks like now that they're no longer running their tennis-coaching business. When the mom goes missing, the father immediately becomes suspect #1, even his kids come to suspect his guilt. Let's just say he does himself NO favors in assuaging his family of his guilt.

Now, spoiler alert!!!

In the last 39 minutes of the series, we learn that the entire time the "missing" mom just felt sorry for herself and decided to take a short break in a cabin in GA the entire time with some random chick that she'd met.

Finally she comes back home, everyone cries and hugs and gets released from prison...tears are shed, all is forgiven, now let's have a family project and clean the storm debris from the personal tennis court, cut to black... This show greatly disappointed me. I wished I'd read more before sacrificing my Saturday to watch this letdown.
