I didn’t see this show until after it had been cancelled, which apparently happened after just four shows were aired. I agree with TV Guide magazine which voted it as a show that shouldn’t have been cancelled. I bought the dvd containing 13 episodes once I learned it was available. The show is very imaginative and funny. The inanimate objects that talk to Jaye make rather odd suggestions that only make sense after a while. The quirky characters work for me, and mostly seem to play off each other well also. I can see where the inventiveness and originality of the show might have been difficult to maintain over time, but I sure wish they had gotten the opportunity to try.
