The Kominsky Method (2018)
Smartest adult comedy in years
Two seasons in a row they've put this one out of the park. A trendy, smart thirty minutes which actually deserves an additional thirty minutes to do it justice. Exceptional writing and brilliant acting. A funny show that at the turn of a phrase Will have you on an emotional roller coaster.
House of Cards: Chapter 66 (2018)
How could you?
Shame on the powers that be for bringing the show back. The first episode was the "jump the shark" moment that for me, makes the rest of season 6 unwatchable. With apologies to Scott Fitzgerald: "time to say goodbye to the things you know and hello to the things you don't."
Station 19 (2018)
Oh please!
Station 19 has to rank up there with some of the worst network programming ever! To liken it to a sack of hammers is an understatement.
Manifest (2018)
Oh please!
Dumber than a sac o' door knobs.....two episodes and I'm done.
The Chicago Code (2011)
I'm just not sure...but leaning towards a no.
The Chicago Code is just OK....it's nowhere near as complex and personal as Detroit 1-8-7 with their spot-on character development and crisp writing or Southland with their in your face humanity but I'll still give it a second look-see next week for any improvements. Having fallen in love with her in her roll as Daphne Monet in 1995's Devil in a Blue Dress, I have a hard time with Jennifer Beals as police superintendent; it's just not believable...put thirty or so extra pounds on her and a stain on her uniform from the preceding days lunch and she'd fit much better. On the other hand, Delroy Lindo as the corrupt Chicago alderman is totally believableĀ
and if we're going to involve the Irish mob, then let's some actors with that Southie "I don't care if you're dead or alive" attitude, instead of the fresh off the farm faces that we saw in the opening hour. More grit, dirt and under the loop grime would help this new Fox entry.
