It starts off with Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies as a married couple and the stereotypical fights they get into (which are pretty funny) but Andy has a few secrets that escalate into an enjoyable drama/comedy ending. I liked everyone in this including Emily Mortimer and Alan Arkin.
City island starts off a bit slow and obvious but stick with it for good lighthearted entertainment.
