Yes I am a tough rater (and all around brutal human being).

I am currently watching season 1 of Damages on DVD. I can see all kinds of problems with it and reasons why I shouldn't like it - but I keep watching and actually find myself thinking about the next upcoming episode during the day.

It's a trashy page turner which, I have to admit, is working for me so far.

No rating until I have completed the season but I thought I would toss that in there.

I have finished the season. The critic in me wants to tear it down. There really is a lot of ludicrous, convoluted stuff going on. And as much as Glen Close is a really talented actress, Rose Byrne is not. However I can't deny it kept me watching and I have already ordered season 2.

Ima gonna say: 6.5 out of 10
