Will Trent: Agente Especial

At this point the show is cute I'm enjoying it. I have to remind myself that books are for book readers and TV shows are for those who watch... not necessarily the same

The main similarity between this and the books are the names of the characters. I'm only in the 1st episode and we're just getting to know all about everyone. It's a little confusing and sometimes hard to reconcile, What I see and what I already feel like I know about the characters. The author has already signed off on all of this so I will trust her judgment and keep watching. I look forward to seeing how these things turn out and the character development. .

I didn't read the books so I don't have any expectations. I never watch shows on network television EVER but I like the main actor and I just thought I'd try it. I'm usually bored in 15 minutes. I have to say it's a fresh take on a typical show subject. I think the casting was well done. I like the main characters and I really think the back story ads so much. I love the dog interaction and I actually like that it's clean but not unrealistically so. I'm usually watching some like DEXTER, so again I'm surprised. The writing is pretty good including the script. There is a wit to it that is well delivered by the cast. I'm on episode three so let's hope it keeps my interest. P.s. I love the dog side kick.

The pilot episode was decent. As for just staring the will Trent series in the books I find it hard with adaptations. Will Trent should be 6 3 and large strong physical presence. The lead is good pick as I find he is mimicking the character well so far. As for Amanda the choice was perfect. When pictured in the novels I always saw a strong black female presence it is probably one of the best adaptations I have seen done. Now with faith that one is hard to see and deal with. The character is to me not appealing. This one I'm hoping it will improve but time will tell. If you read the books at first there is some hesitation towards this tv adaptation. If your just learning of this show it is appealing and something we have seen before but I have hopes it will lead to more.

Knowing Karin slaughter is the executive producer I'm sure she blessed all this current PC adaptations so I put my trust in her views as to where this will lead.

Can't wait for the next episode!!!

Finding a police procedural that offers something different from the usual is not easy. The I happened across Will Trent and watched the first couple of episodes and haven't stopped watching every week.

I haven't read the books, so know nothing about the character, other than what I have seen in the TV show.

I think Ramon Rodriguez plays the part pretty well and does show the social awkwardness the Slaughter character apparently suffered from in the books. That character interaction is good, too.

It well shot, too, for a network TV show

The storylines are interesting and the GBI is something different from cop shows set in NY or LA.

So I recommend this show to anyone looking for something a bit more quirky than the average police procedural.

Being a fan of the Grant County and Will Trent books I was waiting for a long time for this series to be released ... and then the characters have very little in common with those in the book. Sarah Linton is, so far, completely missing. Some of the other characters have had a personality makeover

I found that so difficult, that it completely ruined the series for me on my first attempt at it.

1 year later, I gave it another go, and have found it to be an good series, with very skilled actors who do a fantastic job of bringing the show to life.

For me this is a good show, with stories which have some resemblence to Karin Slaughter's books, but it falls far short of the books and I'm not sure whether I'm happy or sad that it's been picked up for a 2nd Season.

If it had been called "Sam Spade", "Bert Avon" or anything else, I'd have been hooked and enjoying it immensely.
