The Ri¢hes

Are you guys watching the second season of Dmitry Lipkin's show?
The entire first season and the first episode of the second season is on hulu.com and it regularly airs Tuesdays at 10pm on FX.(or 7pm if you've got the east coast feed).
Minnie Driver, Eddie Izzard, and Margo Martindale are all at the top of their game. It came back just in time (god, I miss "The Wire").

I am. Is it me, or does it feel like they changed writers? This season doesn't seem as much fun. (So far..)

Nope, he's working with the same writers as last year. The second season's episodes are still being written off of Dmitry' Lipkin's original conception, and I don't think he's strayed too much from the original story. That's all I know but I wish I knew some spoilers. I knew what to prepare for in the first episode and agree that It was a little more intense and kind of devoid of the humor written into the first season's episodes, but episode 2 was very impressive. I really love Margo Martindale's character "Nina" (It's awesome to see her play an integral part she's so recognizable from her work in commercials, her minor supporting roles "Dexter", and the deplorable woman she played in "Million Dollar Baby") It's cool that she's in on the scam with Wayne and Dahlia. The way she handled the hostage scene in the second episode was incredible.

Margo Martindale is a plus for sure. She's come a long way from bit parts in Lonesome Dove and Law & Order.
