Your Honor

This show is single-handedly ruined by the main kid, Cranston's "son". Literally making one horrible decision after another. Trying my best not to blame the actor for terrible writing, but even his acting is lacking. I know that's harsh, but...damn. Really let down 5 episodes into the first Season. Will update rating higher if anything happens to change my mind...but the show is no greater than a 5 right now. And that's being relatively generous.

I just finished season two and let me tell you, this drama series has everything you want in a crime show!! Season one was very good, but I have to admit, the finale of season one had me a little frustrated. I didn't understand why they chose THAT ending. I had no idea where they would take this show, but man, having just finished season two they executed everything perfectly. The storyline is great! Everything comes full circle. The cast does an amazing job. Big Mo is one of my favorite characters in any TV series. Crime, suspense, plot twists...highly recommend! It's a high quality, well thought out show which is something that's becoming harder and harder to come by these days. Can't wait for Season 3!

So, I was dubious about this series after reading the negative reviews and after the first two instalments, I thought there was some truth...however, this series is not about a brilliant story, it's about the morals you think you have and after some bad luck, the morals you really have. I thought it was excellent, forget the cheesy coincidences and think about the choices one makes. As for some reviews citing an annoying kid...really? Clearly not parents! Karl Grimes he is not!

Unfortunately, "Your Honor" was extremely disappointing for me... I watched the show because I saw an interview by Bryan Cranston where he was talking about the show and I thought it sounded quite interesting.

The premise of the series is indeed incredibly exciting and with better authors one could certainly have created a nerve-wracking and impressive series, but the authors really mess everything up here.

The series has everything else - good actors, nice sets, good camera shots, etc.

But when it comes to the whole story - the most important part of a series - it doesn't convince me at all... There are so many scenes that just don't make sense and not just when you analyze them, but when you think about them at all - which the writers apparently just didn't do.

The writing of this series is honestly one of the worst I've ever seen in a series. All the characters are completely dumb just so the secret doesn't unfold.

The points are really only for the other aspects mentioned (acting, camera, set, etc.)

Good story, if not a little far fetched, great acting by Bryan Cranston, I loved the New Orleans setting. The pacing was good too, never seemed to drag too much. Some of the story I didn't agree with, I thought the police corruption was too blatant and not believable, the crime family wasn't very convincing and the kid when he danced was weird lol. Overall a decent show though.
