It's easy to see why NBC would choose to burn off new sitcom Save Me after the typical broadcast season has come to an end. It's a meandering story without a clear direction or well-defined characters. It can't exactly make up its mind what it's about or what the rules of the tale are.

Despite that, when the series is good, it's very good, and this year's three-part season finale, which ended with "The Woman" and "Heroine" this week, are two of the best hours of television I've seen lately.
