The Equalizer

Reply by Mike

I really wanted to like this because I grew up listening to her but unfortunately I don't.
Queen Latifah can not pull off,
I think it's a combination of a actor not being suitable for a role and bad direction.
The first season was bad but not terrible and I thought there would not be a season 2 but when I heard there would be I thought they would've been improvement but not it just got worst. Please, stop it now.

@cyberfren Renewed for Season 5. Clearly she is pulling it off and I am enjoying the show. And what does her rapping when you were a kid have to do with this? She has been acting for 30 years now. Glad no one listens to you. Please stop it now. Just don't watch, zzz

I watched half a season, it kinda blows to be honest.
It’s too dumb for its own good (given how overly serious it presents itself), poorly shot and edited (the action scenes really suck in particular), lots of questionable acting, and the story is predictable and uninspired.
God fucking help us all if this is supposed to be a show for 'manly men'.
Anthony Starr is very good in it, and yeah it’s got lots of tits and blood, which is great, but if you’re looking for that I’d recommend Spartacus over this in a heartbeat.
I feel like the only real hook with this show are the sex scenes, which you can also find plenty of on the internet.

@temisan You really watching CBBAU (Season 1) or are you watching the 2021 VIP and accidentally checked into the 2002 season? I am watching Season 1 and saw you were checked in and was like how random.

Ugh near impossible to watch. The acting was sub-par and the characters were trying too hard to define themselves. Why is the CW so bad at making shows?

@shoginn Hmm Season 6 is in the works. Why are you such a bad judge of shows and acting? GO AWAY

The Sin Stalker storyline was my favorite

loading replies

@kurt7825 I am about to watch that storyline again. I am watching 1987 now. Join Days of Our Lives, Secrets Revealed on Facebook. I do Days, AW, Santa Barbara, Sunset Beach and Passions watch parties there. We are in January 1987 now right when Reginald had a heart attack.

Wisdom of the Crowd

Reply by Mike

it's okay and trashy procedural. fun though.

actors are bland, which is good. drama is hokey. tech is depressingly perfect, the sidekicks often have more personality than the leads. So, everything's on track for at least 1 full season, with the highly possible outcome of 3 seasons, a conspiracy, a flashback, and a presidential tie-in, if CBS has absolutely nothing going on in 2018-2020.

The [premise] isn't creatively different from most procedurals, the story tries to jump on the idea that "throwing people at problems" makes them easier. Rather than just "throwing tech at problems" as seen in CSI, APB, Bones, and other forensic level shows.

The concept is withering. If it ever gets mishandled, or they cheap out once too often, the show will devolve into exposition moments explaining the crime or the motive, or the technology involved, i.e. What Ice T ends up doing in Law and Order SVU for that show. until one of the writers notices and puts the exposition ball in someone else's hands for a while.

The pseudo-narrative "computers make all things better" makes for compelling quick solves, but like APB, the idea of an app that links everyone via reporting of crimes, is super-cala-fragilistic-expialidocious levels of confabulation. I fully understand the reality of the show having to cut corners, but there's some pacing problems with the super-computer that can solve all problems. Namely, that it's able to solve all problems, that it makes no mistakes, and that it is kept as mary-sue invincible as possible.

The way the show solves this is to 'trickle' out "new" features and on-the-fly features with no testing, with what looks like a million dollar factory refit, 40" tv's as monitors, and ~5 chairs for 50+ staff. I don't hate the show, it's actually within the realms of possibility versus something like CSI:Cyber.

but it's still stupid.

The writing isn't too bad, the recent 1x04 will be as dated as is watching Tek War in a year or two, looking at antifa/alt-right groups for "user bias" will not age well, much like Pagers and Flip Phones.

Topical now, but it's absurd.

the cliche drama elements are going to be new and exciting to people who've never watched Drama on TV before, i.e. the foibles of IP law, serial killers that confess in the last 2 minutes of the show, the painful revelation of a red herring via exposition and a CGI'd render, or a photograph leading to a new clue, rather than heading to a new location because there needs to be more banter between the duo.

The Great Indoors

If you were looking for a show that is worse than the Big Bang Theory, look no further. If you thought the laugh track on TBBT was great, then you are going to love this show. Some of the most pathetic forced "humour" I've ever seen, the writers of this show should be ashamed.

loading replies

@si80 Big Bang Theory is a mega hit. Renewed for Season 11 and 12, Just because you don't get the humor doesn't mean its a bad show And I liked the Great Indoors but it don't matter. Canceled. :(

I only saw the pilot, but it was probably the worst 30 m of television I have ever watched.

loading replies

I agree. The pilot was pretty bad and the 2 or 3 other eps I saw weren't very good either. Surprised it got picked up for the whole season.
