The Family (ABC)

Has anybody started to watch this? I've seen the first two episodes so far and am enjoying it. I haven't made up my mind yet about Hank

he's hiding something for sure, but did he kill Adam

and Adam

is he really Adam? And if he's not, where did he come from? And why has he come to the house? How much does the mum know - is she using it for her own political game?

. And the scene where Alison tells her dad what she knew about his affair and how she covered it up since she was 13 was pretty impressive - she'd fit right into House of Cards or Scandal :pac:

Is anyone else watching this? Highly recommend it. It's dark at times and gets twistier each episode.

Hmmm... just read on Wikipedia that it has been cancelled after 1 season. Not sure how many episodes there are. If they do it well it will be a good one season show as it would be a difficult to see how the storyline could have continued.

Only mentioned this on the Cancelled TV shows thread today, watched all the 12 episodes this week, enjoyable show, maybe it can be picked up for Season 2 by another network.

It started late last night on RTE 2

Does it conclude well?

mel.b

No, it is left open as though there was going to be a second season
