I love this show and want to know what happens next. I think it was a victim of a bad timeslot for a great show. I DVR'd to make sure I caught every episode. Funny, I was only 10 years old during the time period the show takes place in but I remember every bad kitchen wallpaper and gross furniture as if it were yesterday. I wanted the next show after watching one. It's too good to let drift off. Everyone write! I say Bravo to Bravo! I love this show and want to know what happens next.

Ranks up there with 'Madmen', 'Breaking norm' and 'battlestar galactica'. This show needs to be renewed. This is a great show.

THANKS for the site! Best thing on CBS since, well, in the history of CBS!! So sick of those mindless, cookie cutter crime shows, PUH LEASE. This was obviously an experimentation in television for them to have launched it in the summer time as they did. Perhaps for summer numbers, it did FAIR? I am so glad this show has a love it/hate it fan base, because the ones that LOVE it REALLY LOVE it (like me) and the ones that hate it, hate it cuz they secretly WANT to love it (who doesn't get turned on deep down inside regarding the idea of sleeping with your hot neighbor in bell bottoms?) Hopefully someone, anyone will pick it up, I hope for a racier version on HBO frankly, this is a Six Feet Under/Entourage caliber show. I can't believe how pent up this country has become, it seems we have DIGRESSED as a society, to accept the disgusting amount of violence that is on TV now vs a little healthy sexual exploration is sad. Keep up the good work and PLEASE post as soon as you know anything on a renewal! PEACE OUT. Hi there, SUCH a fan of this show. THANKS for the site!

Okay. Kelley with a two year signed contract to do another show, that basically pushes the same boundaries, now cuts his and CBS's "Swingtown" supported audience down by 1/2 because now what you have down is focus the drama (sexual drama) on a Male/Male relationship. Just cut the lesbian undertones out of "Swingtown" hold onto the gay ones and there you go...a story line like "BiCoastal" is created. I'm one of those Swingtown watchers that was completely 100% engaged in the Olympics. I would watch Swingtown online during my lunch hour the next day. The show is good. CBS lost out maybe, but I'm hoping HBO, SHO, anybody else picks it up.
