Unquestionably one might apply to this little gem entitled 'The Trivial Pursuits of Arthur Banks' that same old adage attributed to those inspiring books that inexplicably have crossed our paths with the noble purpose to be timely read. Well, I happened to experienced the same sort of refreshing feeling with this welcoming TV show since I accidentally bumped into it without even knowing of its existence. In addition to a wonderful cast, I think that the main character here is the astonishing script and, by all means, the amazing creators and producers. Quite frankly, to convey within twelve or thirteen minutes per episode a multidimensional story line plenty of sharp humor and perfect timing is quite remarkable. For those of you who like to be entertained with gusto, please give this show a try. You won't be disappointed. Excellent Job to ALL that made this show at AMC possible!
