Tru Calling

I watched the first season of Tru Calling about year ago on Sky One, and thought it was OK. It didn't stand out at first and the writing wasn't very good, but it really started to pick up! The stories got better and the characters developed, and I enjoyed watching it.

I got the complete DVD set a couple of months ago, and wow, the second season (well, all 6 episodes!) is AMAZING. Suddenly the whole thing gets better, with more intricate characters and surprises. There is great interaction between "Tru" and "Jack" and the show is suddenly entertaining to watch. It is such a shame that it was cancelled after only 6 episodes of Season 2! If only they had shown Season 2 on TV, I'm sure people would have watched them. It's worth buying on DVD to see the whole thing, and remains one of my fave TV shows.

The show Tru Calling is really cool and I never miss a episode! Except I missed the first episode the night when it premired but luckily I caught a repeat of it. This is the best drama show on Fox since Dark Angel! The show is about a 22 year old girl named Tru Daives who has a brother named Harrison and a older sister named Meredith and their mother was murdered right in front of Tru and when Tru was younger she wished she could go back to the day and prevent death from even happening but a few years later her wish was granted. So at first Tru tries to get a job at a hospital and then she gets a job at a City Morgue and then she gets these powers to go back and prevent people from dying in the first place and also reliving the whole day. The whole going back and reliving the whole day thing sounds pretty cool! Now that this is one of my favorite shows I have a major crush on Eliza Dushku and AJ Cook (who plays Tru's best friend and Harrison's girlfriend, Lindsay). I hope this show does well especially that Jason Priestly is added to the show that will help also.

BOTTOM LINE: Best Drama TV-series on FOX since Dark Angel!

Loved this show! I can't figure out how they cancelled it just as they were about to reveal so much about the villain, etc. The stories were great! I would rewatch it if I could find it anywhere to stream. Someone needs to reboot this show!

Tru discovers she has the ability to relive a day and help people in the process. Great show and interesting stories!

I waited all winter for Tru Calling to come back on the air. And then we get what, 3 episodes? There are only four TV shows I watch regularly. This is one of them. I would much rather watch this than reality TV.Is there anyway to get it back on? i would even be happy with re-runs. And how they just leave us hanging without knowing what is going to happen? The last I could figure, Tru's brother was going to take Jack's place. And what about her father killing her mother and being the opposite of her mom? Would that mean that Jack and Tru are destined to be together also..ya know, opposites attract? There too many unanswered questions. i really hate it when they cancel a series without bringing it to come kind of completion.

The first 3 episodes were really engaging, fast-paced and had great character and story developments. The show then becomes even better as Tru learns from the people she attempts to save and this show does a great job distinguishing each episode and making them unpredictable. Some episodes are even unforgettable. The main chemistry between Eliza, Zach and Shawn keeps you watching. The mythology of the show really picks up toward the end of the first season and the instant chemistry with Eliza and Jason is addicting. The entire second season revolves around those two and each episode is a can't-miss.
