CBS
Action Drama
Recommend: Season 1, definitely. Season 2-4 , no.
Thoughts: The show was an interesting concept but somewhere along the way they focused far too much on the drama, and far less on what made the show great. Their unique ways of problem solving.
Concept: ⭐️⭐️1/2
Not getting into this as am not one who believes the self proclaimed genius of the real Walter O’Brien. The show on its own had merit until it became a prime time soap opera.
Story: ⭐️⭐️
Storytelling: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ish
Characterization: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Casting: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Entertainment: ⭐️⭐️
Best: Paige, Ralph, Happy, Toby, Sylvester, Cabe, the characters were brilliant except….
Worst: Walter O’Brien: ****SPOILER ALERT**** At first he was innocent jackass that was endearing in a weird way. By mid season 3, I completely disliked the character. Was utterly disappointed when Paige and him got together at the end of season 3. She deserved so much better. By the final episode, it was fantastic when they all left him. To be honest… it was not surprising that the series was canceled after season 4. The only way it would survive was without Walter O’Brien and they made the show wholly dependant on him being the central character. So, the show was better off without Walter, but could only keep going with Walter in it, but lost all its fans because the character was completely unlikeable by the end.
