Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Eddie_weinbauer The books they based the series on,are excellent,the series on the other hand is quite bad.Book vs TV series. In the Books they are truly professional. They disagrees sometimes,and bicker a bit ,since one of the two is a neat freak.But till act like professionals.TV Series. They act like fumbling idiots. One always leaves/ forget his gun in the glove compartment, or at home in a drawer. And he is suppose to be an ex secret service agent. I mean c'mon. He always has his back to, whatever it is that's gonna come up on him. Even in the most highly alerted situations.Now the chemistry and the acting isn't all that either. They mostly look Bored, and have the facial expression ,of just going through the motion for a pay check. The two of them might be actors,and be able to act.But they sure don't show it on this showThis is like a crime/PI show for lonely housewives or stay at home mums. Kind of along he line of the TV show Matlock.=The cases get solved through a bit unorthodox methods.But mostly very peacefully and none violently
diana reese Sadly I just learned that King & Maxwell was cancelled. I thought it was a great adaptation of Baldacci's books. Edgar being my favorite character portrayed wonderfully by Ryan Hurst. Jon Tenney has never disappointed and I felt Rebecca Romijn worked well with Tenney. The comic banter is done quite well and we were just getting to see inner personalities develop. The writing is well done and set choices appropriate. Perhaps if we viewers are lucky someone else will pick it up. We are being inundated with idiotic reality shows like the new Chrisley show, its embarrassing to watch people make fools of themselves. THere are some pretty dumb fictional shows as well. What audience are they polling because no one ever asks me or anyone I know, and I hear people complain all the time about the volume of intelligence insulting reality shows.
chahn54 David Baldacci is one of my favorite authors and I have read everything he's written. However, I had no idea that one of his series had been made into a TV show, so I was totally surprised when I happened to accidentally stumble upon it. First of all, when a book has been made into a movie or TV show, very rarely does the video coincide with the mental visuals you had in your head while reading the book itself. As I was watching the episode, my mind was scrambling to figure out which book it was and what was going to happen and I was mentally comparing the actors to the version I had in my head of the book characters. What I enjoyed the most from Baldacci books isn't the plot--hasn't it all been done before? But it's the characterization that pulls me in. Although I've only seen one episode, I'll keep watching to see if the actors can establish the same relationship. And, secondly, why wasn't this series advertised more? For pete's sake, this series is based on a very successful author's work--advertise it so that people know it's there. You shouldn't have to stumble upon it.
factshome2 I wanted to like this show because of Jon Tenney but am still lukewarm. Rebecca Romijin adds nothing. Anyone could play her role. There is no chemistry between them except for the fake and oh so old arguing ala Castle, Moonlighting and so many other shows of the same ilk. Romijin is strictly eye candy to come to work, take a shower with the door open and catch an occasional glimpse of her naked back. She can't act, can't react and gives nothing of substance. Tenney is too good an actor and he deserves a real actress . In "The Closer" he played second fiddle to Kyra Sedgwick's quirky character...now he has a stiff mannequin to maneuver around.
