Da Vinci's City Hall

It seems they took everything great about Da Vinci's Inquest and really downplayed it and they took everything boring about it and they made this show all about it. It's not a bad show but it doesn't hold a candle to Inquest.

DaVinci's City Hall is a great show, there is just one huge problem - I could enjoy it much more if I could see what is going on . Why oh Why is it so dark. Each week I wait for some light to come on, but it never happens. We even got a big new 44 inch TV, it helps some , but I am still in the dark. The show is my favorite, the plot has me following and interested and looking forward to it every week. Perhaps it would be better as a radio show. Thanks for listening to my rant. I hate to make an unfavorable comment about a great Canadian show, but there it is. I wonder if there will be another season, and hope there will be.I have come to know all the actors in their parts , and look forward to seeing the development of the story lines and the characters .

Even better than Inquest. Can't take your eyes off the screen for a minute, there's so much going on.

Nov. 1 episode blew me away. When was the last time you saw four women police officers conducting a bust? That and cultural diversity makes this show for all people. Nobody is left out.

I, too, miss Donnelly Rhodes. What a great character actor. Maybe they could bring him back from time to time.

And what happened to DaVinci's secretary (when he was coroner)? I'd like to see her again.

This show proves once and for all that Canadians can do drama as well as or better than anyone else. The only other drama that comes close to this is The West Wing.

Congratulations to cast and crew.

I was a fan of both Da Vinci's Inquest and if anything this incarnation was even more intense and captivating than the first Da Vinci series. If you want to know how people wheel and deal and want to see how politics really must work, this show really delivered the goods.

In politics and in business (really the same thing) as many personal agendas as well as corporate and social interests as possible must be served and this show was all about that. I loved watching the trading of favours and compromises that occurred in order 'make the deals and move ahead' and both wanted and had to watch carefully in order not to miss the intrigue.

It was a thinking person's show and for those who wanted cerebral versus physical action this was the best show since The Sandbaggers. Perhaps Da Vinci's City Hall was too intellectual to survive the test of ratings alone and needed time to collect the requisite viewers before cancellation but I hope that viewers will find a way to watch and appreciate the 'dance' that it portrayed so well.

Well Mr. Haddock, what's next ?

This is my favorite show period not just ON Canadian Broadcasting. I have long been a Nicholas Campbell fan. Remember Diamonds? I thought the change from coroner to mayor was a great idea and the first episode did not disappoint. I could feel the great story lines waiting in the wings! My only problem: no Donnelly Rhodes! I am really going to miss him, and hope he returns, after all. Ian Tracey was really good as a cop, I hope he has some good things going on as the new coroner. So far, it seemed like he mostly agreed with people. I didn't like that! I recommend this show to everyone who is tired of the American conveyor belt of TV shows... it's like I can't believe the WB canceled Just Legal, the new Don Johnson show!! It was just too fresh for American viewers, I guess, TOO BAD for us.
