In this thriller series, there will be more full details of married life as the series explores the story of a modern marriage in the middle of it. Through the life of one of the spouses, Neil Truman and his wife Grace, there will be full details of the marriage and its various paths. Now, this series answers many special questions about marriage by delving into the shocking and unconventional choices experienced by couples.
I have to admit I've not been this intrigued by a pilot in a long time. Delving into the depths of middle age and marriage, even with a somewhat unrealistic bent, is a gutsy move for USA Network.
Provocative and sexily surprising, reminiscent at times of HBO's Hung, only more entertaining than depressing, the Trumans' story plays out with a funny-sad poignancy that rings true even when some of the details feel off.
In general, Satisfaction's pilot does a nice job of illustrating the frustrations that both Trumans have without damaging any interest we might have in them as a married couple.
Where the classic USA drama has been clean, light and almost always buoyant even when it deals with serious issues, Satisfaction has an air of restless trouble. That's the goal, and the show is well made.
Seen as a sort of midlife-crisis Risky Business - with a grown-up instead of a teenager learning to say "What the heck?" - the show has its funny and sexy moments.
Nice to finally see a show nailing what it wants to be and say, in continually discerning work from Passmore, Szostak and series creator Sean Jablonski ("Nip/Tuck").
