I haven't watched it yet. I'm still miffed about "Rubicon", and that AMC tried to kill the "The Killing". Seems like I get into a show and poof, it's gone.
I only had time to watch 10-15 minutes. As much as I like Lennie James, the show did not grab my attention. I'll watch the first 3-4 episode before making a decision.
The big problem I had with it was casting, the actor who plays the I.A. guy. Could not stand him in Suits, as a character, and he's carrying that persona over to this show. He's kind of grating and good only in small doses.
It's Gale! I can't get that out of my mind when watching.
Even though I don't normally watch this genre of show, the first episode has me interested enough to watch the next. I just hope it's not a Breaking Bad wannabe show, in which a good, upstanding guy with integrity is gradually pulled over to the dark side and turned into a Walt White type of anti-hero through various efforts to cover up his crime.
Okay, I've had time to watch all three shows over the weekend and I've changed my mind...I like the show---not love---so I'll keep watching.

Not really feeling this show. If this wasn't limbo season for TV, I'd have stopped watching by now.
I love Lennie James, but I've never cared for gritty shows that center on organized crime, and none of the characters are likable enough for me to care what happens to them. I have absolutely no empathy for Frank and have trouble understanding why he'd be so hung up on prostitute. I mean the guy is decent looking and has a good job, and professional women he encounters through his police work (EMTs, doctors, nurses, DAs, court clerks, etc.) would give him ample prospects, not to mention all the groupies who hang out in cop bars looking to marry a decent guy in uniform. Obviously he's a flawed character with issues, but still.

I'm still watching...not really drawn to the show, but entertained enough to keep me coming back. However, I will not have time to watch after the fall premieres. When does this season conclude?

Season finale is 13 October. There should be a significant ratings drop in the coming weeks. We shall see.

After trying to force myself to watch this week's episode last night, I deleted it after 10 mins along with my timer for this show. Here's hoping for better things from "Better Call Saul."
As much as I wanted to like this show, it just didn't click. Timers deleted after 10-minutes last night...just don't have time to waste on this show with the fall premieres.
I gave up on this show 2 weeks ago. I loved Rubicon and The Killing but just couldn't get into this one.
