Notorious

This show can be a great one if they keep up the tempo from the first episode. I have not seen this tempo in events and the script since West Wing. Piper Perabo is as usual brilliant and this is a show where I really look forward to the 2nd episode.

The only thing I am afraid for is the tempo slowing down and the drama taking over too much. Looking at the first episode I feel there is a risk the writers wants the show to be more sexy. But it does not need that. Just give us what you gave us in the first episode and all will be fine.

If you like a fast-paced actiondrama, you will like Notorious. I hope we get a full season even though reviews generally have been poor.

It boggles the mind a show like Two Broke Girls can go on seemingly forever but something watchable gets canned after just one season, probably because, once again, the dumbasses the look at the ratings/viewers aren't also counting people who stream shows.

I hope Netflix revives this and Limitless, because at this point i think they're the only ones who know what their doing anymore.

yea i am a guy and will admit that i like scandle and h t g a w m a lot and this is another good scandles show its full of action thrills and mystery that you have grown to expect from abc dramas every character has a special something to do with the story in some way u wont believe some of this nore will u watch the local news the same way agin its full of surprises as i mentioned before so i say fasten your seatbelts and be ready for a fun thrill ride full of mysteries that any true abc junkie will just have to solve before time runs out and u will never expect lots of things happening here just watch and enjoy trust me u will like it

...I really can't understand the networks, the producers and the writers this season...

Notorious is a new TV drama about...well...I'm not so sure.

It is about the (unexplained) close "business" relationship between a (male) criminal defense attorney and a (female) news producer. Supposedly based on actual persons, attorney Mark Geragos and Larry King Live producer Wendy Walker.

The main idea is (also supposedly) to show to the viewers how easily can be manipulated by cheap tricks played by the media. Like whoever gets to say ...first if someone is guilty or innocent, will play a major role to the ...actual verdict of a jury!

There are a lot of things going wrong with Notorious even from its first scene which shows (you might have guessed it) ...Sex! And not just Sex, but Sex in the office. And the scene that follows that, is another one that implies Sex between the cougar anchorwoman and an exotic boy-toy, also in the office at the same time, a few meters away from the previous couple.

And the usual "you are the best", "she is the greatest", "the top news producer", blah-blah, blah-blah, from the writers who are too lazy to make a solid introduction and build properly their characters.

Then, the lamest and most uninteresting twists, appearing one after the other, trying to match the fast, abrupt editing and direction.

And all of these, are mixed into a chaos of a script, that tries to combine mystery, legal drama, romance, deceit and a soap opera version of "the Newsroom".

Overall: Another disappointment for this season. Not worth the time. Maybe some hardcore feminists will find it a tad enjoyable.

OK I tried this show and judging by the episode I saw it just wasn't my type of thing don't get me wrong I love how to get away with murder and scandal I even love ABCs conviction as well but this just didn't have it It failed where those shows succeeded and is boring where those are exciting to watch yes there drama in the news room but it was just a letdown of a show for me no lovable characters no good plot just lazy and flat it is just a bad example of something that could have gone great however I am don't think that it was successful in trying to entertain me but it just sucked and wasn't worthy of a second try in my opinion and I hate to say that I have a prediction of it being the first to go this season
