It's hard to believe how well this was put together at times. I'd say the first 10 episodes are definitely the best, after that the story line has reached a point where it's less exciting. That doesn't mean the rest of it is bad though, not at all.
One thing that striked me is that there were often tensions moments when Light get's interrogated. Ever time when it seems like he's getting caught he comes up with another waterproof lie/alibi to trow off any suspicion. Which is what I meant by the first sentence.
I actually got a Death Note book as a gift after I finished the series :)
liked it up until Charlie left. Not a fan of the actor but the show was a lot better with him. Also it has just been beaten to death now and the show is old.
Don't bother with the dubbed versions - stick with the original script and the subtitles!
Where is original Dragon Ball? The japanese original version, not the english one, cut and dubbed? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088509 I have never seen the english version, only the japanese and latinamerican.
season 11 is just awful...a lesbian instead of charlie????
The show is obviously not for everyone. I can take it or leave it. I think I laugh at times simply because it's so stupid. Just mindless fun. No thinking required
I didn't watched it as a teenager 20 years ago, so the opinion is based on a modern perception. The series is very uneven, sometimes it defends itself quite well, but often the plot runs through the bottom. And congrats for the actors who achieved something more after it. :)
Found this randomly. Funny show. Would recommend it but probably not for everyone out there. Enjoyed watching it.
I’ve watched the entire first season and I still don’t have a clue about what this show is supposed to be about. Not a single one. But I like it anyway and I hope it gets renewed!
Considering the high ratings of some reviewers - I persisted.
But a messy plot (albeit with strong sub-stories) combined with the trendy ending that doesn't answer any questions means I won't be investing more time in this series. Disappointing.
Should have been canceled after they killed off Charlie
If they do end this show then do give all characters a good ending lasting ending, esp Allan.Yes maybe Charlie was the heart of the show , Allan was just as important. They were a duo.
Give everyone an end.
Best show ever! Watched every episode and love I it!
