Jett

Came here for Carla Guino, such an amazing versatile actress. But then came the storyline, I'm intrigued!

Decent casting, noir environment with an old school crime drama feeling. Not a bad start.

Deciding to follow it through, let's see if they can keep the quality up.

I think Jett is in one of the most promising new shows I've seen this year.

The characters are well drawn, the violence is unconventional (if not, at times, actually funny). And he shape of this series is beginning to come into focus. It's a show that stands out to me in similar ways that other worthwhile contemporaries did (like killing Eve and breaking bad), uniquely it's own compelling style and world. Enjoy!

My initial impression was "not great but engaging and different". As the season has worn on quite a bit has surprised and excited me... the ambiance, the camera movement or the dialogue of certain scenes. Despite one or two "disturbing" moments I'm truly impressed with how this show is evolving.

Full disclosure: I like the projects that Carla and Sebastian put together. Having said that, this one is a cut above. It's a fun/slick run at a hardcore thief dragged back into the business. The writing is good and quirky, the punchlines & violence come in off-beat timing, and the characters are great. I've seen several episodes now and the show continues to hold my interest. Yes, there is casual nudity, so puritans should probably look elsewhere. But for the rest of us, Jett is a enjoyable fast ride with Carla Gugino on a whole new level. Check out the pilot and you'll see what I mean.

I don't get why so many people dislike this show. The overall rating is much lower than the episode ratings which seems bizarre unless someone has an agenda and a legion of trolls behind them trying to get the show cancelled. The number of ratings for a show just out and on a minor network is also suspicious. People offended by nudity? Or interracial relationships? I wouldn't say this is the best new show but it's as good as any in the class. I wouldn't say it's unique either. There have been other shows with female leads with similar characteristics and plot lines but it's not predictable either. I can't find too much at fault with the writing, acting, or production. It's certainly better than the ratings suggest.
