The Riches is one of those great shows you can catch on TV late at night, and you expect it to be on when nothing else is. It is packed full of humor that almost anyone can relate to, and includes problems that real people can actually understand. Rather than watching some crazy soap opera with twisted story lines, The Riches brings out the humor in everyday live even just by sitting in a coffee shop and chatting with friends.
Among The Riches many appeals is that it is daring enough to feature the subculture of the nomadic and thieving Irish Travelers through the Malloys, a family of con-artists that soon find themselves wittingly trapped in the biggest lie of their lives—as a normal family in wealthy suburbia. The show provides a funny yet scary peek into the 'what if' of assuming another identity in order to live larger. Another good thing is that such a complicated situation is made believable by the shows' leads, British actors Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver.
The Riches ran its first season in 2007 and was instantly a success with the critics and the ratings. It was created by Dmitry Lipkin, with the pilot co-written by Eddie Izzard and directed by Carl Franklin, and shown on FX. A second season is slated to air towards the second quarter of 2008.
The Riches follows the Malloys, a family who has lived most of their lives in an RV, roving the country to perpetrate one con after another. Because of some squabbles with other members of their Traveler clan, the Malloys are on the run from their own people. Then comes the opportune coincidence of them witnessing a car crash that kills a wealthy couple who were about to move to a new community in Louisiana. The Malloys decide to steal the identities of Doug and Cherien Rich, moving in to their new home and starting the 'normal life' pretense. Of course, the tension brought about by such a situation is made tauter by the fact that family living the lie is a family of hardcore misfits. Worse, less than half of them actually want to be there.
Wayne Malloy a.k.a. Doug Rich is played by accomplished stand-up comic Eddie Izzard, who brings natural comedy as well as credible drama into the role. To some extent derided as a ‘half buffer’ or halfbred Traveler by his wife, he is the one most intent on settling into the Riches’ lifestyle. Minnie Driver plays Dahlia Malloy, a recent parolee and drug addict who is considered ‘royalty’ in their clan. She is more hesitant about her new identity as Cherien Rich. Even their three children, Cael (played by Noel Fisher), Di Di (Shannon Marie Woodward) and Sam (Aidan Mitchell) have to adjust to their new lives as ‘buffers’ who enroll in a private school. Cael is more like his mother, a Traveler traditionalist who is skeptical about their new situation. Di Di, on the other hand, sympathizes more with her father, and even begins a relationship with the boy next door. Sam, the youngest, is portrayed as a rather oblivious but artistic cross-dressing boy.
There are plenty of reasons why The Riches is enjoyable. A lot of critics credit the show’s success to the lead actors’ performances. Maureen Ryan of the Chicago Tribune calls Eddie Izzard "a revelation," while San Francisco Chronicles Tim Goodman writes, "Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver put on a tour de force of acting…. Both Izzard and Driver are phenomenal, but the three young actors more than hold their own." Alessandra Stanley of the New York Times sums up that the show "is so compelling it deserves to be a hit." Indeed, it does.
