New version of show that ended in 2007, but none of the characters are the same.
Aside from the basic premise, I don't really remember much about the original show.
The previous one took place near Seattle.  This is in Detroit.
~~  It seems that the majority of characters are black and it seems that they are not
just trying to be diverse -- they want to make some sort of point -- but I don't know
if they will be able to do it without us feeling that they are just hitting us over
the head with it.
~~  I will continue to watch it, but I have a feeling it won't last long.

I tried to reprogram garage door keypad but it wasn't working.
Instructions on the website are inconsistent.  Also, the simple switch on the other
side of the door that is used to close the door when I leave on my bike (or when 
someone picks me up) isn't working, and I neglected to check it until today.

>>> 11:38a  "Ghosts" (Metacritic: 70, 50-91, #9)
Based on a British series of the same name.  A couple inherits a country estate that
they plan to turn into a B&B, but they find out it's haunted by many previous residents.

~~  One reviewer said it's "an inspired mix of Beetlejuice and The Money Pit, with a spooky, goofy energy that isn’t remotely like anything else on broadcast TV."
~~  A viewer who has seen the original says the first 2 episodes are practically identical to the original shows but it show that that the US production is severely lacking."
Another reviewer said the third episode takes the US version in another direction.  Apparently,
they've added some American characters, such as a Native American.

~~  There are so many things that don't make much sense, but maybe the biggest thing is
why this young couple are married to each other.  
~~  It seems that the key to this show is that it started to seem better at the end of
the 2nd episode because of the living actress can settle into her character now that
she accepts the ghosts as real.  She explains that she can't just move -- because she
sees (other) ghosts wherever she goes.

I found a recap that had a mistake and then I found another recap that didn't have
that mistake, but the rest of the text seemed almost identical, and then I found
a note at the end that says the article was edited because it had the mistake.
Then I found another article with the mistake, but it attributed the source.
So, did the first one simply neglect to attribute the source, or were they
knowingly plagiarizing?

The episode takes place around Mothers Day -- they probably intended it to air last spring.
Betty's mom is sad about Polly's death and is obsessively listening to the the
"Next to Normal" album because she saw it with her daughters on a Mothers Day.
The episode turns into a musical, but I assumed "Next to Normal" was a fictional musical.
