Wow, hard to believe this was the 20th episode of the show (2 eps to go for s2) So...maybe give more screen time to Rizwan, Simon, Phoebe & less time to Marisa? (I didn't like Kylie at first...till screen time got more evened out.) Sorry but it feels to me like Marisa is playing the part of an actress playing the part of Marisa.
Still, I hope it gets renewed.

Jesse L. Martin is the ONLY reason I tried this. We'll see how it goes.
