I liked the 2nd episode, but I missed the first while we were cleaning the kitchen. I was surprised to see that Janine was Trina in "Why Did I Get Married?" I hadn't seen that play till this weekend. The show's cast seems to all be playing the same personalities that they did in the plays, but Janine and Trina are totally different. It's refreshing.
I actually like that it was crack that was Janine's problem as opposed to something else. Okay, I don't like it, but I don't mind it. Usually, people addicted to crack are a certain type of person. But by making it a beautiful, intelligent housewife and mother of two, Tyler made the point that it can happen to anybody. IMO, that was a good direction...now if we could only get that to spread to the rest of the show.
