The writing, acting is good, however the story lines are continuously backed by music played loud enough to take the lead role rather than the actors or the dialogue. The producers may be happy with the results now, however, it won't last and it should not. If I were to take the time to watch the show over again and track the dialogue to music ratio I'm sure it would be close to 1/1, however I believe the music is actually playing more than 50% of the time. Again, too bad as a little more creativity on part of the writers could fill those music parts as the acting and the story is very good. One season and it will be done in this format.
