Duster

This show is so easy to enjoy. The simple narrative, with all the cliches and the incredible 70's vibe really makes it a great show. You will not find any mindblowing plot or any innovative feature in this show, but it is the simplicity that is captivating.. it feels like back when there was no stream services, the family together in the couch watching TV.. dont even know how to elaborate it, but the thing is that was really enjoyable to watch. It feels very light, differently from many TV shows now a days, that are overflowing with lore, complex story line or twists that you have to keep up with.. Basically in this show, you can just power down your brain and just enjoy it.

So for you lost fans, most of you will have a favorable opinion of the character Sawyer by the end of the show. In season five, Sawyer has an opportunity to leave the island but return to US in the 1970s. If your head canon has ever considered what it would be like for him to have lived those years, well thank you too JJ Abrams we get to see this in Duster. So far, I've had a big smile on my face. It's fun and entertaining. I hope it continues this way.

Josh Holloway gives a good performance so far. He is definitely an underrated actor and this type of character always fits him well. I highly recommend that you give this a try and see if it's for you. I look forward to watching each week. I don't know if this is a single-season show, but I hope they're the second season if the story makes sense to have a continue.

The 1 star reviews on here are completely over exaggerated and borderline nonsensical.

Yes this is a highly stylized take on 70s crime noir, but the solid acting, comedic timing, pacing, and suspense make it one worth watching.

It's kind of like a cross between an Elmore Leonard and a Carl Hiassen novel. The Arizona setting and desert locations almost act as a character on its own, adding extra pressure to the overall situations at hand.

I dont want to give anything away so Im being fairly vague, but after watching the second episode Im convinced this is worth the watch time. Great pacing, acting, suspense, setting, and soundtrack. I realize a lot of us have a natural aversion to JJ Abrams at this point, but this time he came through with a solid show.

I've never written a review although I have wanted to on many series n movies. I recently finished the season and recently saw an article where they say they will not have a 2nd season. What troubles me is that a so-so, 5 star rated show will get multiple seasons, but shows that receive 7 stars n above do not get a chance at a 2nd season. There's not much not to like about this series, unless you just can't stand the underlying racial undertones on what this country thought about and as we are living in now, people of color and women. I found the storyline pretty good along with the artwork and period correctness stunning...I truly hope they can rethink and develop a second season.

So let's start off with a question. Is this for everyone? The answer: probably not. In saying that it does have all the things you'd expect of a period piece that takes place in the 70's. Long hair, muscle car, afro. Cheap cinnamon chips! Ok the last one not necessarily the case. Mr. Holloway has his charms and the lovely young woman FBI agent is a trailblazer which seems stereotypical these days while Hollywood tries to convince us that there empowering women at the cost of losing historical accuracy in the process which is unfortunate to a degree. The relationships aren't fully fleshed out in the first episode. I'm still unsure who the little girl's mother is in relation to the main character. Ex, friend, family member? Who knows! If you enjoy a little action and drama with a backdrop of crime/70's. Then you can't go wrong with Duster.
