Claws

"TNT" has a new wild far out brash and bold crime series that involves five ladies who are just trying to make their way with life in the sunshine state. Set in Florida, "Claws" involves the life of a female mafia clan who run a nail salon, yet underneath the money involves blood, bullets, and scandal along with the typical bribes, loan sharking and just old fashioned get away fun! And the series is spiced up and blended nice with scenes of sex and clever plots that are a cover up to make the viewer think as to what type of mystery is going on. The ladies are lead by Niecy Nash in one of her strong and most blunt performances ever. Overall entertaining good crime drama series to watch that has plenty of sugar and spice.

I absolutely loved this show! Right from the start it had me. From the genuinely interesting and eclectic mix of main characters to the plot twists. Its great to watch a show where females are given less predictable story lines. I wouldn't categorize it as a comedy, it seems to be more of a thriller drama based show. I cant wait to see what happens next...

Near perfect,very adult crime drama. This pilot spent not one minute BSing it's way to a surprising conclusion to set up what looks like a very rough ride of woman power. Previews made this look sassy,but it is much more. This looks like a sophisticated crime thriller.

Very well executed. Niece Nash (Scream)and Dean Noriis (Breaking Bad),along with Carrie Preston (True Blood) and others give difficult,really wonderful,believable performances with very adult material. I gave the pilot a 10.

As someone whose favorite shows are X-FIles and The Sopranos, I wrote this show off from the moment I saw the previews. And wow do I apologize to the writers and the actors of this excellent, engaging tv show. Little did I know this gem of a show had a ton in common with my two favorite shows, strong female lead, lots of crime, and genuine comedic moments thru characters that have excellent development.

This show is one of a kind, dramatic, hilarious and heart-warming. The story line is completely unique and offers so much variety to viewers. The character development is excellent and really makes you as a viewer fall inlove with these unique characters. It's so binge worthy, and in the current season it brings me back every week.

I love these women! You did it right this time TNT, hope this shows has a long life with many seasons to come.

TBT continues to dazzle. They promoted the hell out of this, somebody spent a lot of $ - and it shows, in a raunchy and engrossing noir comedy. But - a little puzzled that some seem surprised by the graphic (and witty!) vulgarity - "prurient"? yep, definitely! anyone who had seen a promo, or looked at the first 2 minutes - would know that this was not going to be Downton Abbey or The Good Wife. South Florida is a strange & wonderful place - and Claws is worthy of that milieu.

The cast: Niecy Nash has been a particular favorite since the wonderful Reno 911 - happy to see that she has found a perfect showcase. Carrie Preston, sometimes a bit too twee in her Good Wife stint. is letter-perfect,often raunchy funny but also deeply moving in her fragile gentility. Judy Reyes is always a welcome sight - a world away from her Carla on Scrubs. Great secondary characters -eg, the brilliant Dale Dickey, with her face for the ages. Dean Norris and the other males are all good, but the women rule here.

Nash's clothes, like her attitude, are magnificent, the stripper biker funeral in Episode 2 has to be seen to be believed, and Florida looks great.

A last note: "Tailored to a very specific audience" as the last line of a rather hateful 1-star review - really? Seems to be flirting with racism ... altho, I'm surely part of that target audience, and I'm a middle aged white man from the south, so yeah - target away!
