Believe

Its refreshing to see a show that not only isn't completely predictable, but which also gives off a vibe of being exciting and action packed. Its not all action, and its not all science fiction. Its a mix of the good qualities that any genre of television can provide. Action, humor, science fiction, etc; but without the repetitive nature that seems to come with following a specific genres motifs. Every cop show gives off the same vibe as any other cop show. Believe's vibe is one of a kind that breaks free of genre stereotypes. At least the stereotypes that I worry about. ;) In particular the best aspect of this show, in my opinion, is the innocence of its main character. Too many shows today are about the shock factor to real in viewers. Believe, like any other show, has some of the usual cliques to draw in viewers. But it still provides aspects that are refreshing and wholesome in nature. After all whats better than remembering the good in humanity while watching some cute and exciting television?

Fantastic show so far, Looking forward to seeing the relationship develop more with Tate and Bo. Milton has to be my favorite character so far. Didn't know what to expect from the start but has me gripped. looking forward to seeing the 3rd episode and eventually finding out who Bo's mum is. Expecting lots of plot twist and seeing Bo's "talent" develop over time. a fresh Show idea, just what was needed. I can definitely say I am waiting eagerly for episode 3, and it annoys me to wait for it, but I know it will be worth the wait as it is with The Walking Dead also. Well worth watching for fans of science-fiction, & fantasy shows. keep up the good work. keep me gripped is all i ask :)

Saw the first 3 episodes and we are hooked, my kids really loved it. Pilot was great, second episode was OK but third episode was also great. The plot is good and actors are credible. I usually like JJ's work and with Alfonso Cuaron's directing some episodes and also being a producer they put something really good together. We need series that are inspirational, that you can watch with the whole family and this is it. Johnny Sequoyah is a great actress, I really can't believe all the negative comments and reviews. Delroy Lindo's also great actor and the part he is playing is perfect for him. I haven't seen a perfect show so far, there is always room for improvement, and yes this show could be better also but so far we like it. Can't wait to see how the story develops but I'm sure it will be worth watching.

This is not an untarnished genre, but I have found this show to be unique and original. Most notably, the style of the show uses the characters to tell the story, and the plot is subtly interdependent with it. It allows you to think about the plot, rather than forcing you to make singular assumptions about what exactly is going on. It doesn't isolate the viewer through needless and technically proliferous action. By the 3rd episode, I found its depth to be apparent. It is also nice that this appears to be a show that is both family oriented, and has adult themes. I think if you are the type of show goer that wants to see bullets flying everywhere and a bad guy put away at the end of each episode as it builds towards one epic and final exclamation, this is not for you.

When I first time heard about this TV show, I told myself; "Finally, since "Fringe" we're going to see something extraordinary interesting on TV". But when that "extraordinary" comes with such big name as Alfonso Cuaron, then we all have no choice but at least to watch the Pilot episode of "Believe". and that's I exactly what I did.

Since we had so many cancelled TV shows such as 'Alcatraz", "Event", and "Park Avenue", film makers should be extra careful with picking a new idea, before making a new show. Because, it is not that easy to make us watch something ridiculously unrealistic story.

Since Alfonso Cuaron is the one who has created "Believe" I would still take a risk and watch it. Because this person is smart enough to not offer a boring story. "Believe" tells the story of a little girl Bo (Johnny Sequoyah) with extraordinary gift. And certainly, having such a power (still unknown what is her power about except a few tricks she has done in the first episode) not safe for a little girl. And to make sure that she is safe, Milton Winter (Delroy Lindo) asks Tate (Jake  McLaughlin) to take care of her from Moore (Seinna Guillory) and Skouras (Kyle Maclauglan).

In the first episode we see a few action scenes, which is mean that there are still many more are coming. It's still unclear what kind of organization is coming after Bo, but it more looks like a security agency who also wants to own/to take under control Bo's power. The story still developing, and it goes deeper so far which makes me to watch the second episode as well, just to make sure that it really worth to watch it.

It's hard to say whether I liked "Believe" or not. But in one fact I am absolutely certain; it does not matter who stays behind this story line, Alfonso Cuaron or Steven Spielberg, all what is important is a good acting. If the actors are good enough to execute their roles and makes us believe that they are the part of the show, then yes, I am in. I'll be there wit them till the end. And so far, I see a quite believable performance in "Believe" which is a good sign.
