For the most part it resembles a comic soap opera, but events sometimes take a more surreal, and occassionally quite dark, turn. One of the characters, Monica, has psychic powers and is on speaking terms with a mischievous Aztec god. Moreover, she and her friend Shelly both suffered traumatic childhood events which often color their present-day relationships.
