A couple of people in the comments section trashed this show big time. I rather liked the series. Oops. I like Rob Lowe so that might be part of it, but I thought his character’s relationship with his daughter was neat. The lack of respect from his team was pretty heavy, but the plot was that they brought him in to cut costs and let people go, so he wouldn’t exactly have been greeted with open arms.
So I can’t guarantee you will like this show, obviously, but I encourage you to give it a try.
