For success in my humble opinion you have got to keep the original cast to some degree. Mandy's family did not have enough time to endear audience to them. So the Cooper family, and the other regulars that appeared will keep me coming back. But without them I just don't get it. Don't care for Mandy's mother for sure but love her dad and brother. Timing is way off. Don't look forward to next episode like before. Ordeal to sit for entire episode thus far. Hope it gets better
