Callie Thorne is involved in some "Necessary Roughness"

[Groo The Perverted]

NOTE: I searched the site for a thread about this, but nothing came up under "Necessary Roughness" or "Roughness". So if there's already one, just merge it, rather than complain. It's not my fault the search function is lame

Watching the premiere episode right now. Meh. I DO like Craig Bierko though.

The series centers around a tough Long Island divorcee who, in order to make ends meet, gets a job as a therapist for a professional football team. Her career begins to take off when athletes, musicians, politicians and other celebrities start to request her tough love therapy. She must learn to balance her new career with being a single mother.

I'm about two thirds into it and I'm starting to like this a lot more. Fun show.

I watched the pilot because I liked Callie's work on Rescue Me over the years. But the pilot was enough for me. I've never liked that smug douche Bierko, and as with every single USA show i've ever encountered, I SHALL NOT PASS.............to further episodes....

The first 10-15 minutes I was like..meh. But then it kinda grew on me and got better. Typical USA Networks show.

No overdosing hookers or innocent kids being threatened with bombs, so you probably won't like it. lol.

And Bierko isn't in it that much I wouldn't imagine. He's the soon to be ex, so I don't think he's going to be a main character who's in half the show or anything.

No, but as with all USA shows it's about beautiful people who are amazing at everything they do. That's their formula, and it's not enough for me. If all I wanted was "overdosing hookers or innocent kids being threatened with bombs" I'm sure I'd be a Michael Bay fan, but I have never been, or ever will be a fan of hacks like that. Damn Gary, you'd think I claimed that the Crank "films" were the greatest creations of all time. Just because I don't like shows on your precious USA doesn't mean I don't enjoy quality programming, it actually means that I DO enjoy quality programming.

No, but you're a fan of more gritty stuff where everyone's an ******* and most are bad guys. That's what I meant by the joke of "overdosing hookers" and whatnot.
