Brothers & Sisters Season 5 Premiere


"Brothers & Sisters" has definitely taken a turn for the worse.  I'm not going to sugar coat this one.  I really despised the first episode of the new season.  Instead of killing Robert off quickly (which everyone knew about since Rob Lowe not so quietly left the show), they had him lingering in a coma in the first episode.  To top that off, Rebecca left her marriage to Justin and the show just as quickly.  In addition to the departure of Tommy (due to his drug addiction off the set), that leaves three major characters that are missing.  There's no way this show will return for another season.  It's one thing to watch a show about a family wealthy from their business with their petty quabbling, and it's another to watch them magically find land worth millions and live with all their failed marriages.  This season premiere was the most disappointing of all the shows on television (including pilots that will probably not make it).  Sally Field is too good for the crap they are now penning for this show.  Hopefully, the show will be good enough so I can stick with it through the end.
