    this whole series is prposterous

    Neither of the writers have even a high school diploma and their idea of math is skewed so bad it makes your stomach roil ... its all pie in the sky mumbo jumbo with no substantial base for logic ... 3rd graders have better math skills ... charles eppes is a figment of their imagination ... all in all the series doesn't measure up

    Wipeout

    People in California surf. So at some point we need a surfing episode. An old friend of the family comes to them after his son, a world class surfer, dies. It turns out there is foul play. What transpires involves a marijuana farm and some investigations of waves. I just couldn't get interested.
