Trust Me

Been checking up to episode 4 so far and really liking it. The story of those two going against all the usual business in commercials and advertising is appealing, but most of all fun. Splitting the difference between sucking up to mostly some Botox director (and the board of average idiots) in charge and the people actually getting the work done, while keeping the peace. Ep.1 wasn't actually an A for me, but I thought it might still be promising, so I decided to stick around and wait for Ep. 2. That was when I really started enjoying it. So here I am loving the show so far and I've still got two shows to go and looking forward to them! Thinking back, maybe it was seeing familiar faces in a different part that got me off on a wrong start?

so the show isn't off to the strongest start, but i feel like the first few episodes are often shaky with any character based series. it's not like this show revolves around extreme situations where they can wow us with crime solving or medical saves like so many other shows. there's good humor and great relationship building. i love love love the cast, the two leads, both with strong comedic backgrounds will give the show a good balance with comedy and drama. i'm really excited to see where they go from here. there hasn't been a show about the inner workings of an ad firm. plenty of law firms, government and hospital environments, but this show will have something different to offer for sure. i'll be staying tuned!

I want to like this show! I really do! Great cast, fun premise, and lots of potential, but seriously, what is up with Conner, the character played by Thomas Cavanaugh? He is almost totally unlikeable. I think he is supposed to be quirky and unpredictable, but every time he appears on scene, I find myself cringing. He has absolutely NO good points, no charisma, no character traits that you can really identify with. It's as if the character has no consistency. It is all over the place. There is nothing there to hold onto and to enjoy. I find that I like the other characters and look forward to their ever growing inter-relationships. I especially enjoy Sara, Monica Potter's character. Here's hoping it will get better. Give Thomas Cavanaugh something to work with, please! Give the man a break! He's a great actor!

I have to say I love it. But I would have loved it no matter what. Love that it has a great set up - a Chicago-based Ad Agency. Along with the sexiest men around - Eric McMcormack (I have so missed him) and my heart stopping crush from "Ed" the always lovable Tom Cavanagh. To be honest if the show was horrible I would love it just for that. BUT IT IS NOT! It actually has a great beginning. The barbs back and forth between Eric & Tom are great. Monica Potter looks like she fits in. Also loved seeing Jason Mara (even if it was only for a minute) I heard about this show about a year ago & I have been waiting for this show for a long time. I hope TNT gives this a chance to grow and does not kill it early like they did with "Saved" (the Tom Everett Scott drama from 2006) TNT please give this show a chance to grow - I can not wait to see where it goes from here.

Just happened across an episode (no idea which one) of this on RTE in Ireland very very late last night. RTE have this really annoying habit of buying random TV programmes from the US & Australia and sticking them into the 1am to 4am slot so no one realises they are on. They don't even have the name of the show up on screen at the 'ad breaks'.

I thought this might be OK with Eric McCormack from 'Will & Grace' and yer man from 'Ed'but it wasn't really very good and so it was no surprise at all when Ifound this note on the internet today (after I searched IMDb for the title of course :-)

'On Friday, April 10th, 2009, the New York Times reported that TNT opted out of renewing Trust Me for a second season due to low ratings.'

I wont be watching any more of it then.....
