Le fugitif

I was excited for a remake of The Fugitive and always liked Kiefer Sutherland. But I'm not a fan of these ridiculous mini episodes. I like to get engrossed in my shows and get to know the characters and see the story unfold. At first I wondered if I'd somehow fast forwarded the show or was I watching an extra long 8 minute preview for it? Then I realised it was another one of those horrible mini shows. A huge no from me. A waste of time.

While the jury is still out on how this "Quibi" format is going to go over, the first 3 episodes of this show are extremely engaging. Granted, I have only watched 30 minutes of total show thus far. The acting so far is great with stars like Keifer Sutherland and Boyd Holbrook as the leads. For a show with so little content, it does a great job and making you care about what is happening with its characters. I still consider 24 to be greatest written television drama of all time so of course I came for Keifer Sutherland and really like the character hes playing here. Hes a bit rude and sarcastic which is a nice change from the Jack Bauer character we came to know for many years. I'll definitely continue watching to see where this goes but so far its as good as I could hope for a show that only has a half hour of content released.

Let's start with the obvious, if cops were this stupid, no criminal in the world would ever get caught. Now for everything else, the only actors worth mentioning are Mike Ferro(Boyd Holbrook) and Allison Ferro(Natalie Martinez) who do an amazing job of acting. Every single person including Kiefer Sutherland do such a poor job that if I didn't know better I'd say they were cast at the last second from a amateur theater troupe.

Now onto the plot, it's a combination of a bunch of bungling and sheer stupidity. I've never seen more people get more things wrong in a row in my life. You couldn't make a story this bad if you tried, and they seem to really REALLY have tried.

Meanwhile the episodes are for some strange reason 8 minutes long. Like someone said "hey you know what'd be great? If we took a 1 and a half hour show and broke it into multiple episodes that were ridiculously short for no reason at all!"

4/10 you should be ashamed to call this a series.

Bad acting, a story full of more holes than a fishing net, 10 minute episodes which just get going when they finish. Some good actors must be wishing they stayed at home for this one. The way the police acted is laughable, they obviously never researched for this series

I like it ... except the 8-min format. It was clearly not produced for "You Tube" short format ... a std. 44-min tv show that was rudely cut to fit modern low-attention-span audience. But this show is made for/by adults who are not YT generation. Restore it to 44-min., w/maybe 6-12 episodes/season (remember "24" ran with 24 great episodes!!). BTW ... I like this series !!
