You can download episodes of Aliens in America, the new show starring Scott Patterson as a materialistic suburbanite father, from iTunes. Just click on the following button:
The show airs Monday nights at 8:30 PM Eastern, and I’ve seen the first two episodes. My one-line review: A show about a teenage boy, his superficial family, and an exchange student from Pakistan. Addressing through caricature real issues many of us would rather ignore, it sometimes feels like an after-school special (i.e., juvenile, not witty).
And after the first two episodes, we still know practically nothing about Scott’s character, probably because there’s nothing there. Don’t know if I’ll be sticking with this.
