Countdown

Look, anything Jensen Akles is in will be amazing. His brand of rogue humor is the best. The show is good. But man are they pushing some storylines in such a horribly obvious way. Oliveras is annoying and it's irritating how hard the storyline pushes her and Akles character. And they are bringing in other big arc "dramatic" story issues all in Episode 1. It's too much. Let us just enjoy the characters and cast. But maybe give Akles a female lead that works with his character because it's not working with the one they have.

I would love to see this rely more on good writing and character interaction and less on shock value. You have a great cast to work with, so use them and not all these random side plots.

I am a huge fan of procedurals or series that have mysteries and then as a result, cases to solve. And an even bigger fan of stories where a band of misfits are bought together to solve it all. When do many different personalities come together, really interesting situations and moments are created.

What hooked me to the show is, that I can see that even though it will solve the main case, it will also form bonds between the team.

I already am loving Mark and Amber's chemistry. That they don't see eye to eye yet and are still forming a team is really interesting.

The cast is really good. Obviously Jensen leads the one as the most effective performer, charismatic, profound, and expressive. And I am further impressed by how well he's carved out Mark as a character. But even the others are great. Waiting for more characters to evolve to speak for others. But very impressed by Jensen, Eric Dane, Jessica Camacho so far.

The show so far seems pretty good, lots of action. Couple actors seem to be trying too hard, it's a new show though, perhaps they'll adjust into their character as it progresses. Ackles, however, fits into the plot like a glove on Mantle. They definitely went pretty darn hard on the soundtrack though lol. Couple times maybe juuuuuuust a bit too hard throwing in some hard rock to Amp the scene. Still has a good feel, but could definitely do with maybe just a tad bit of backing off the heavy/loud music occasionally. As long as the show stays with the story, action and drama and AWAY from the political agendas which Hollywood seems to try to force into everything they make now, then I think it'll continue to grow into a great series.

Don't recommend watching it on Amazon Prime (unless this is the only way, haven't checked that.) WAY too many ads/commercials!

This is a fun, action-packed show with some nice comedic moments. It's not something you have to take super seriously- you can just enjoy the ride.

If you're stuck-up and pretentious, you probably won't enjoy it. If you can just sit back and have some fun, then ignore the wannabe arm-chair critics and give it a go.

Eric Dane and Jensen Ackles do a great job leading the show. The supporting cast doesn't get a chance to shine in the first three episodes, but I think they round out the team nicely as it goes.

My biggest con for the show is that I felt Volchek was under-developed and his motivation didn't totally click into place for me. I think he needed a stronger villain origin story. He came off a bit petty.

Wasn't sure I would watch, not a big fan of course shows but what the heck. Was glad I did. First the actors: Ackles, as usual, give a stellar performance. The guy is a gifted actor and has charm to spare... And okay, he's super easy on the eyes. He delivers, he's believable and I can't wait to see her goes. Dane gives a solid, intense performance. He leaves me wanting more! Camacho nails it! She is amazing and her integrity comes through beautifully.

I will be watching all season! I do hope that the pacing picks up, that's the negative but it's the first 3 shows and I look forward to see where it goes.
