    One of the better casts for the new shows starting this season Cobie Smulders, Jake Johnson, and Michael Ealy.

    Could have sworn I've seen that trailer before. That's the Marvel Universe Maria Hill right?

    Agree with this; nice setup and characters so far and can go places without being excessive in the story lines. Reminds me of private eyes in that sense.

    yeah good first episode. Not sure Smulders is charismatic enough to lead a show.

    Decent 2nd episode. Liked that we got a little more back story into Dex's life. The fight scenes are pretty solid also.

    I didn't realise this was based on a graphic novel it was only when they were doing the freeze frames coloring that I had a google.


    Ye a solid follow up episode to the pilot I kind of like that Dex can't fight for sh1t and gets beaten up just as much as whoever she fights.

    Cobie looks great with the 70's Charlie Angels look.

    Certainly has that feel. 3 episodes in; the cheesy background music (not the tape music- clever touch) would normally be a clear indicator of poor quality, but not so here. The best opening episode of this kind of show in a long time; obs gonna be hard to maintain it, but the excellently cast Cobie Smulders has a character with a lot of scope for good storylines, with plenty of action. Bubblegum stuff, but quite enjoyable. Thanks to Smulders a typically very male-type warts-n-all action character believably played by a woman.

    Fraid Cobie Smolders character isn't enough to get past the overall cheesiness and bad editing. Bailed half-way through episode 4. Disappointing as Cobie Smolders is great in this.

    I still really like the show ,because of the great cast rather than great writing.

    The start was movie quality , opening 5 mins was just brilliant ,and it was never gonna keep that level up through 15 episodes but I do feel it has dropped off more than I hoped.

    That said I am still in and feel it has the basis for a very good show , just need some good stories and action to elevate it to a great show.

    Good solid season finale to a fun season and nicely set up for season 2 if it gets renewed.
