Plays again later. All 12 episodes of season one replay today leading up to tonight’s second season premiere. I quite enjoyed the first season, but wondered if the show would lose something in subsequent seasons much like Desperate Housewives did. Well, season two starts out in much the same fun way as season one did. They have added in some new mysteries, but I think working in a shorter season format that it has a better chance of staying fun and not falling off as fast as DH did. Will you be watching tonight?
