*** SPOILER ALERT *** I gave the pilot a very positive review and rating as, for me, it was a fresh and bright approach to a novel subject. I loved the script and characters, in fact I loved everything about the show. Having just watched episode five however I'm disappointed that the scriptwriters are maintaining the 'questionably tenuous' relationship between the two leads. Miss Skin Doctor's complete lack of any real curiosity or belief about and in her guardian angel is wearing very thin; her continuing disbelief, or more importantly her naiveté is becoming annoyingly school-girlish. Her guardian angel has shown more than enough proof of her being what she says she is and yet Miss Skin Doctor's character and perception is more akin to a vapid minded high school girl than that of a medical doctor. She shows zero astonishment at actually having a guardian angel. Okay, it IS a light-hearted situation comedy and her angel is purposely written in as a comedic lunatic (Angel From Hell) but none of that comedic aspect would be lost if Miss Doc had at least a minor cathartic realization that she has been placed in an incredibly fortunate position and that her inhibited emotional lifestyle was going to change much for the better. Who wouldn't like to meet up with and have the friendship and guidance of their guardian angel? If the scriptwriters don't extend and deepen the relationship between the leads I fear for the future of what is already a good show but also one that could offer up so much more in the way of developing those 'gutsy' life emotions that was really the primary reason her angel opened up to her in the first place instead of remaining hidden which would obviously have negated the possibility of the entire premise of the show. Please let the sweet Miss Doc grow up - even just a little bit - and develop more than a 'Pie School' relationship with her mentor. I'll probably not make any friends for saying this but (IMHO) the substance and direction of the show seems to be geared up more to entertain a dumbed down and easily pleased audience than the pilot show would have suggested.
