I thought the promos looked interesting! However, it was so absurd, I could barely make it through 2 episodes! The whole premise is ridiculous, the acting is atrocious & the plot is way beyond belief! You made a big mistake with this one NBC! Ugh! The lead actress is over the top with her tough broad persona which is actually laughable! The rest of the cast isn't much better! The lead actress keeps this bad guy prisoner and he's supposed to be helping her in her quest to find missing people! Why would he help her? Makes absolutely no sense! My 10 year old granddaughter could write a more plausible script!
This series is a modern style counter to the brilliant classic show missing without a trace.
The lead actress is wonderful here. Real and believable, tragic background and a zealous commitment. She's batman. Overall it's cute and kitschy. They have to include elements of trauma,The show is on citytv so struggle to see why so many reviews are negative. This is not Scorsese. Anyhow excited to see more. Only watched the first 4 episodes so far. But it's promising with hinted overall season plot being suitably big. It is a light watch, no heavy contemplative viewing attention required. Decent pacing episodic feel good content.

I'm hooked on the Sir storyline but that is completely because of Sir and MPG's portrayal of him. He is a morbidly fascinating character. Unfortunately, he's kind of the only one in the entire show.
Years ago I read a book where the main character was so lovable and such an amazing person... because the author kept shoving that down my throat. Nothing the character actually said or did showed these things. I feel like that same person is writing this show.
I'm struggling to understand how Gabi is so successful and loved. I find her character very off-putting and not because she's a strong, independent boss lady. I just don't find her to be loving and real as everyone portrays her to be.
This show is filled with broken people and that formulaically can work, but it needs a strong and caring leader. While the writers keep telling us that Gabi is that person, I don't see it.
Something just isn't quite right here.
I'm going to keep watching because I want to see where the Sir storyline goes. I know he's the Bad Guy, but he's by far the only real reason I'm tuning in.

It's a good show honestly and has a lot of interesting moments in it. I think that the weak part to the show is honestly the cases each week. They can be so boring and not entertaining or interesting at all. They aren't fun to watch and I feel like if they improved, then it would be much better.
Now, the characters are why I watch this show because they each have a backstory that intrigues me, and Sir and Gabi's relationship is top notch. The acting is decent throughout the show (the main actors are good but the others aren't that great). I am excited for what is to come but I do hope it improves. Overall 6/10 is a fair score I think.

I started watching this after I saw a preview. It looked really interesting, and the first few episodes of Season 1 were interesting. But as the season progressed the stories have become less interesting to frankly boring.
I the show is about the relationship between Gabi and Sir but the show is called found, so the people they need to find should be interesting too. So far, they've been less than interesting.
The acting is top notch especially the two actresses that play Gabi and the actor who plays Sir. Margaret, Zeke and Dhan are also interesting characters. Lacey should be an interesting character, but she isn't, and Mark Trent is kind unnecessary and boring.
I hope the stories get better because I would like to see the conflict between Sir and Gabi continue to grow. It would be nice if the people their looking for get more depth to their stories.
