For me the story involving the daughter adds to the depth of the show as does her performance. That is how some kids are. Their dad was held as a prisoner of war for years, comes homes and is considered a hero and their lives change because of it and they resent their dad. It is life and to me it adds more to the story instead of him just having perfect kids that show up long enough to say hi, hug him and tell him how great he is.
Also, I have always thought Claire Danes was a good actress. The thins I had seen in her she had always done a good job in, but she is not only brilliant here she is also sexy as hell. There is something about the way she is that makes you want to bang the bejezus out of her.
