bazxyz 3 gripping stories that make a change from the usual mind numbing drivel on tv. Shame its been stopped after 3 series due mainly to greed as usual as its not a massive hit. Sundance decided we need more repeats of MASH and Law and Order instead of something new like this... like all the other channels showing these programs isn't enough! Luckily each series is its own story so worth watching
geordiesdad This show is excellent.................for the first 3 episodes. After that.......well.......let's just say if you think Road Runner is based on REAL events....then you'll love this show....if, on the other hand your mind has even a SCANT grasp of reality....you'll abandon it around episode 6 and go back to the comparative reality of the Road Runner adventures....or Tintin. The writing is abysmal and incredibly predictable...the acting is OK although the lines they have to read must have made them cringe at times. Lots of action a la Schwarzenegger but not a hint of drama not based around fantastic possibilities. i think this would have made a wonderful cartoon or a comic book but as a series......MEH.
gaztrue Now where is the third season because I already want it to start now!!! This season was sad bc of subject matter but Hap and Leonard make it okay and put a smile on my face. I dont know who thought to have these two actors together but really a stroke of genius or/and luck. Thank you!!! now go make a third season.
virtuallann-1 Hap and Leonard's on screen chemistry is seamless. You can feel that these two have been friends and brothers since childhood and there is no forced chemistry as is seen in so many "buddy" movies and tv shows. Their relationship radiates a genuine connection that is a backdrop for the story rather than the focus. The racial tensions that exist in the show are not forced either but are a backdrop as well to story-telling. A genuine portrayal of both the good and the bad that does not brow beat or try and preach politics to the viewer. So far this has been one of the most rewarding shows to watch in a long time. I really hope this one sticks around, it is a fantastic effort and will be watching it until the end.
