Unofficial Tilt review post...anyone else have a problem with...

[Gramps]

It's super-cheesy, and it's creators seem smart enough to know that and that's what type of show they've made (i.e. on purpose). I don't think they're trying to make anything more than a completely over-the-top poker soap opera with some violence and sex thrown in there (it is a mainstream American audience after all - that always sells best).

It is what it is, and as far as guilty pleasures go, I think it's entertaining. I'll certainly be quoting many lines from it in jest (or flipping up the nuts "Matador style").

Please don't take that last statement out of context...

Oh yeah, and didn't Jennifer Harmon used to play in her dad's home poker games at like 12 and take everyone's money (or win her Dad's money back)? Maybe that's where they got that story-line from.
