Question: I saw Men in Trees this week, and I thought it was a great show. Please tell me that it did well in the ratings!Answer: It was the most-watched program on Friday night, so that's something. The real test comes this Friday when it faces NBC and CBS' original lineups. Creatively, I thought the second episode was a major disappointment, particularly compared to the pilot, which, as you know, I loved. So much of it felt painfully contrived, and Anne Heche's Marin Frisk – who, despite her world collapsing around her, still had a strong sense of self in the premiere – suddenly morphed into Susan Mayer's blonde twin. If Jenny Bicks is reading this, please bring back the Marin Frisk from the pilot, and quick!
