Striking Out

This is so much better than the drivel from American studios. No overt sex or profanity and no exploding cars or blazing gun battles, wow actual dialogue that drew me in and made me feel that I was a fly on the wall watching, experiencing the drama. Loved the ending, just enough to make me want to watch next season and left me thinking that the character Eric may also be a victim - of his bad parents and their drive to make him 'win' at everything. I recommend this show highly.

Such a shame this has not been renewed! Well acted, well written television series.

OK so if you want to know what happens in a real lawyer's office go and sit there for a few days. This is television and this series (too short) is a great piece of escapism. It's so nice not to have about five thousand and twenty-three story-lines or a script that is unintelligible. There is a real freshness about this series and it is good to see an Irish team take on such a project. One criticism is that it would be nice to let the actors out of that canal basin now and again! Looking forward to more! Ms Huberman creates a new type of lawyer hero, one with an overlay of innocent ingenuity, again a refreshing departure from standard fare. Hovering in the background are a series of corrupt individuals giving the story a David versus Goliath theme.

Its a small world when you end up watching a TV series from 'home' 2 years after the event only because it got favourably reviewd in the NY Times, but yer honour, i have to plead guilty. Amy Huberman almost effortlessly carries the major weight of the series & its nice to see in these days of woman the barricades that she is accompanied by some other very talented female actors. the stories are good, but please mr director, can we lose the sweeping shots of the dublin skyline? MANHATTAN it aint

This is one of the most enjoyable show we have watched this year. Amy & the rest of the crew are fantastic! Too bad there won't be a season 3. Missing out Acorn TV!
