Royal Pains - Dirty Sexy Money ripoff?

So I tuned in this week to the new show Royal Pains on USA. Basically, the show is about a doctor who loses his job, goes to the Hamptons with his brother, and "happens" to save a life at a party (convenient, huh?). The next day, people "happen" to have his number, and, much to his chagrin, the rich and bratty begin calling him for random jobs (Including a 16 year old who crashes Daddy's car, and a boob job gone flat)
Sound familiar?

Instead of a Lawyer who feels obliged to work with a rich family, we now have a doctor in the house.

Lucky for them, there's not much on in the summer, so I will probably keep watching!

I miss you DSM....

I miss DSM and Big Shots too! I think I will never start a new show again. Everytime I do they just cancel it w/o any warning.

I'll have to check out Royal Pains, but I hope it doesn't make me cry as I think back to the great Dirty Sexy Money. Ahh...Dirty Sexy Money. May you rest in peace for now, and someday resurrect a la Family Guy.

I was actually thinking he wasn't really dead for a while too.... But now it's been so long that I can't remember why.
