Product Description: UPC: 786936754179 DESCRIPTION: Some people say money is the root of all evil. The may be right. Nick George s whole life has been lived in the shadow of the Darling family, but as an adult he s leading the perfect life as an idealistic lawyer, until his father s suspicious death. The absurdly wealthy Darlings of New York have asked him to take over his father s job as their personal lawyer, but the money that will allow him the freedom to be an altruistic do-gooder is only part of the picture. That same money pulls him into the dubious doings of the Darling clan. Power, privilege and family money are a volatile cocktail. END
Amazon.com: Filled with intriguing story lines and a smoking hot cast, Dirty Sexy Money focuses on a idealistic attorney wrestling with his father's death and the family that may be responsible for it. Peter Krause (Six Feet Under) stars as Nick George, whose father was the legal counsel for the Darling family and good friends with patriarch Tripp (Donald Sutherland) and his wife Letitia (Jill Clayburgh). When Nick is offered to take his father's position with the family, he goes through a gamut of emotions: He never saw his father because his dad was always tending to the Darlings' needs; he had dated troubled Darling daughter Karen when they were younger. He doesn't want to get sucked up into the drama that is their life but, like his father, he is unable to resist both the salary (upwards of $10 million) and the Darlings' tremulous connection to his dad. But that money doesn't come without strings; Nick serves as both counsel and therapist to the family. Occasionally, he is also asked to play the role of errand boy (When favored son and rising politician Patrick (William Baldwin)--who is married--wants to break up with his tranny girlfriend, he asks Nick to do it. And to give her a check to show his affection). To his credit, Nick says, "I'm not going to go into a hotel and give a tranny hooker a check." To which Patrick says, "She's not a hooker!" All 10 episodes of the debut season are included in this boxed set. Executive produced by Greg Berlanti (Dawson's Creek, Brothers & Sisters, Eli Stone), the thoroughly entertaining drama has a group of characters that keep viewers glued to the screen. Karen is a boozy socialite who switches husbands often; Patrick can't stand up to his wife, even after she kinda-sorta shoots him; Tripp and Letitia have a litany of secrets that affects their marriage and their children; Nick finds himself sparring (both verbally and otherwise) with their eldest son, the Rev. Brian Darling. And whether Nick has found a friend or foe in charming multi-millionaire Simon Elder (Blair Underwood) has yet to be determined. Dirty? Yes. Sexy? Absolutely. As for the money, it just may be the root of some of the Darlings' evil. --Jae-Ha Kim

It is a very good series until Juliet enters the picture. Watching her was bothersome, her character closely resembling the shallowness of Paris Hilton. If you are over the age of 16, plain and simple, she is just irritating. I fast forwarded her parts. Nick, the family lawyer, was excellent just like he was in Six Feet Under. He is a pleasure to watch.

It's a fun Hancock-esque take on primetime soap operas like Dynasty, demonstrating that extreme wealth just makes things even more dysfunctional for a family. The Darling family is completely whacked out, with oldest son Patrick cheating on his wife with a transgendered woman while running for Senate, middle son Brian as an extremely hostile priest, oldest daughter Karen being such a serial divorcee that her most recent marriage doesn't even survive the reception, and fraternal twins Jeremy and ...

i kind of had to laugh at the reviews that are some how aghast at all the "philandering" that goes on...this isn't little house on the prairie! If you want moral fortitude, this is not the show to watch. I would have thought the title of the show...DirtySexyMoney...might have tipped one off to the fact that this family wasn't going to be an American ideal. They are a capitalist ideal certainly. The acting is brilliant, the characters are complex and likable despite their shortcomings. Peter Krause ... Read More

I enjoy the first season of this series. The second season isn't as good.

Dirty Sexy Money is watchable but it's not riveting. Some scenes like the one where the Nick George character gets kissed by his ex and caught by his super sexy wife, are so telegraphed that it hinders the script. Even though you can pretty much guess the plot, there are worst ways to spend a weekend. Just make sure it's a rainy day weekend with a close friend.
