Eddie Izzard & Minnie Driver as "The Riches"The 2nd season premiere of the FX original series "The Riches" last night was exquisite and full of the chaos that surrounds the Malloy clan and everyone around them.The stolen money Dahlia buried is revealed to have been found by adorable little Sam.Just as things are starting to jump off with evil Traveler family member Dale in the picture,a very drunk and belligerent Hugh shows up in a most comical way-as Wayne is trying to leave in a car with the hapless Pete's corpse in the trunk.As Wayne tries to corral Hugh and Dale,he has to deal with an overzealous rent-a-cop.Meanwhile,Dahlia escaped with the kids and "Grandma" and drug-addicted unhappily married neighbor Nina joins them for the ride.After the engine blows up in the Mercedes,they set out on foot and get sidetracked briefly when Grandma gets ill and needs a doctor.The kindly doctor declares her drunk and accuses the family of nelgecting her.He insists on admitting her to a hospital and meanwhile Dahlia wonders how to get on the move again with limited funds.The previews from next week look promising!
If you did not get a chance to see the first season of "The Riches",it is available on DVD everywhere and its worth a watch.I do not care for any of the other FX original series like "Dirt",The Shield" or "Rescue Me" but "The Riches" is one of the most unique comedy-dramas to come along in while."The Riches" airs every Tuesday on FX at 10 pm EST.

Totmom...I don't know if we will be able to get The Riches out of this one or not!! By the way, my daughter and her boyfriend went to New York, to see Eddie Izzard do standup at the Comedy Club!! She first saw him about 4 years ago at the University of Richmond, where she graduated from.
My favorite character after Dahlia is hands-down gonna be Hugh,Waynes boss.I have seen Eddie Izzards stand-up on BBC befofe and hes pretty funny.
