That was not a good start. I started watching this because of Kaley like probably many others. After the pilot I'm not feeling it.
The comedic parts are extremly forced on the plot. Cassie is not a very likeable character and her behavior is to over the top. She makes one stupid decision after another which pulls her further in.
Question is: do I want to know how this plays out ? I guess the next episodes will answer that but somehow I don't see how this can stretch over two seasons and still be interesting.
I wasn't expecting Kaley Cuoco acting to be at this level. I'm very impressed :o
Really good cast of known faces, with a interesting story to foot. I'll be sticking around until the end.
Interesting start! Let's see where it goes!
Kaley Cuoco channelling Jennifer Aniston...
The pilot is a guilty pleasure. Hope it turns out to be more.
Starting off pretty bad, the cut in the guy's neck is awfully done, no details whatsoever or any attempt to make it look real.
The drink at 24min the air marshall is asking is a soda and he clearly has a fizzy drink so it's clearly not a vodka (he's saying it is)
The ice cubes are and feel very fake to the viewer, she claims they're melting but when she drops the bucket, there's not a single drop of water.
Overall a very poorly made first episode
Not bad we will see a bit weird though
Interesting premise. Feels a bit like a PTSD fever dream.
Decent start let's see where this goes
OMG THIS WAS SO GOOD!!!!!!! I mean I think we all can agree Cassie is very stupid but that’s the point and Kaley’s acting is so so so good!!
I feel like it was a terrible decision to leave the scene and to throw the murder weapon away cause yeah I would also be scared to be locked up in a foreign country but I don’t feel like Thailand’s police would take it to heart that a white american woman might had killed a white american man in a fancy hotel, I think they would pass it along to the embassy? And maybe Cassie would spend like a night in jail and then be sent back to the US and that’s a big maybe cause for staters she didn’t have a motive, she wasn’t covered in blood (she says she was but it was only a smudge in her hand), she didn’t have any cuts on her hands from stabbing/cutting him with a broken bottle of glass so I feel like the US embassy would take the lead. Then she called her lawyer friend and only asked her about Amanda Knox??? Why didn’t she ask her for help??? And I don’t like her logic of “they locked up a tourist for 5 years just for littering” cause littering is offending the country and its laws and if she had killed a Thailand citizen of course she would be taken away forever but this is white american on white american crime. And then she stopped to buy a scarf?? And it was like a luxury store so obviously it had cameras and probably she paid with a credit card so...
But obviously I don’t think he killed him, that business partner looks suspicious, on one of the montages of that night you can see a hand putting the blue bottle (murder weapon) in a table while Cassie and Alex are sitting on the couch so there was someone else in the hotel room, idk if the hand is the business partner’s or a hotel worker’s and then when the business partner called the hotel’s front desk she immediately asked them to go check on his room and that was just really obvious, like if I was meeting someone and they don’t show up I would give them a few more hours before worrying especially if last night we were partying like that and I then would go to the hotel myself.
This episode was so strong, I just hope it doesn’t turn into a courthouse drama, cause lately I’ve watched a lot of those and I’m kinda tired, I feel like the lawyer myself and it’s exhausting trying to defend so many imaginary clients.
Very interesting start... Mixes up a little bit of graphic crime novels, Dick Tracy, Hardy Boys, and maybe even some Murder She Wrote. Musically it borrows a bit from a jazzy Hitchcock influence.
The spoiler moment of the episode was gripping!
Let's see where this goes...
I'll admit I was drawn to this show on the fact it was Kaley Cuoco along with the premise. She was always the highlight of BBT for me with excellent comic timing making me laugh despite the terrible material.
This show has an interesting style so far, not sure how much legs it has but I'm on board enough so see it through.
Interesting start is all I can say
I don't think Penny did the drunk part very well but I'm not going to judge so quickly. lez go.
Terrible and uninteresting. Kaley is not a hot as many people seem to think she is and this show proved it.
Love the jazzy score.
I feel that the plot would've made a great Harley Quinn episode.

Given that it takes all of ten minutes or so to learn that the lead in this one is a blackout drunk airhead slut, I'm surprised that I made it to minute 11. But Cuoco somehow manages to pull it off and then actually becomes slightly appealing once she has to start dealing with a certain shocking moment. Beyond that, the mystery elements here are really addictive and, overall, they did a great job of setting the table in this one AND keeping things interesting and fun in a weird sort of way.
