Editorial Reviews:
Minnie Driver and Eddie Izzard star in this well-received FX series based on the concept of what happens when a family of traveling con-artists finds its way into a wealthy suburban community fooling everyone around them into thinking they belong while trying to convince themselves of the same thing. Driver plays Dahlia Malloy a wife and mother who at the start of the series has just been released from prison for a crime her husband conman Wayne (Izzard) committed. Understandably bitter Dahlia self-medicates and steals to protect her children ending up on the run from a scary crew of extended family. When a crazy coincidence gives Wayne and Dahlia the keys to a new life and a new identity they seize it mistakenly figuring life in the suburbs will be a piece of cake. Like a mixture of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES WEEDS and Coen-brothers comedy THE RICHES has the potential for wide appeal. This set contains all 13 episodes from the show's premiere season including the pilot.System Requirements:Run time: 161 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 024543488057 Manufacturer No: 2248805

Summary: Great show!
Comment: It was actually Minnie Driver who attracted me to this show. I always liked but, never loved her. This show has made me realize how amazing a talent she is. If I didn't know she were an actor from the UK, I would fully think that she had been born in Alabama, Georgia or Mississippi her accent is that believable.

She, like the rest of the cast, are perfectly cast in their roles. They all(Eddie Izzard, Shannon Woodward, Noel Fisher and Aiden Mitchell) tow the very fine line of family/liars in a perfect way. Plus I love the way the show adds the realism of "believing the lie" and its toll on the family.

An extremely well conceived, written and acted show. I hope it gets the recognition and viewership it deserves!

Summary: This is the direction television should have gone.
Comment: Television could have been a wonderful enhancement to human existence, but for some reason has only served to reduce the quality of our lives.

If TV had gone in the direction that The Riches does go, perhaps more people would be having intelligent conversations at the water cooler instead of discussing what Britney Spears is up to these days.

The writing of the show is wonderful and complex and the performances of every actor, down to the smallest part, are exceptional. The story lines are not only duplicitous, but witty and thought provoking.

You would be doing yourself a disservice to miss out on this show.

I simply cannot say enough good things about it.

I was drawn to it because I'm an Eddie Izzard fan, (I mean - the man tells historical jokes!) and was not let down. Eddie and Minnie are just the cream on the top of all of these wonderful actors.

Summary: The Riches, Season 1
Comment: Oh, man! I loved, loved, loved this series. I didn't know what it was about, but heard some really great buzz that it was well worth watching! And the buzz was right! This series takes you away to another way of living, which is so different from the norm. The acting and storyline are both superb! I can't wait to order Season 2!
