I still remember the very first time i saw this show. Be honest im not that in drama as i am in musical. So i didnt pay much attention on it. i watched it all because an episode of the show Will and Grace, Sean Hayes and Jones played in this "the iceman cometh". I do love the actors so i watched it. and i have to say i fall in love with it with the first glance. it's simple but not that simple, it tells us something in a really special way.. anyway, looking forward to it/.
