After hearing [livejournal.com profile] pepperlandgirl4 rave about the new show "The Riches" I decided to check it out the other night. I've now seen the first two episodes and I have to say it's fabulous. Basically it's about a family of Travelers (Irish gypsies) who have some trouble with their clan, and have to run away. There's an accident were a couple is killed, and so the family (Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver) decided to pretend to be the couple and move into their new house. The thing that is so great about the show is that even though the father is tired of being a con man, the only way he thinks he can settle down is by conning everyone into thinking he's this dead guy. And the rest of the family isn't entirely sure that they want the wealthy lifestyle he's trying to provide for them.

I'm not sure if that made anyone want to watch it, but you should. It's much better than I can describe.
