    Good jaysus, the dialog.

    The film is one of my all time faves but I'd say this won't be a patch on it. In the film Bill Paxton's character was black and the rookie was white. They have turned that around the other way for the TV series. I wonder why.

    Actually shooter is pretty good, and I'm willing to give this the benefit of the doubt too but the trailer is ridiculously cheesy and way off centre - looks like it has more in common with the 'Lethal Weapon' TV show than Training Day.

    Very average pilot.


    I'll give it a chance of another one or two episodes as Lethal Weapon showed you can have an awful pilot and turn into a pretty decent show.

    Good God that was brutal. I definitely won't be watching the next ep.

    I just watched it, what was brutal????

    Very good I thought. Nicely set up arc already, bit of action, good characters, definite keeper for me, will watch ep2 later.

    Aww, i was really liking this, Bill Paxton is after dying from complications after surgery. I'd imagine thats the end of this so.

    The first season finished filming in December but there won't be a second season now that the lead actor is dead.

    I stuck with it and it turned into a fun little show that had a start middle and an end.


    They did leave an opening if it was renewed but that doesn't take away from a contained season.


    Bill Paxton hams it up for the season and that just made it more enjoyable.
