Disappointment for a huge fan!

A lot of fun.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

I am not much of a TV person, especially not a MTV person, but I was hooked on Teen Wolf like the next gal when the previews first started showing up for Finding Carter. On a whim, I recorded it. After all, if they find Carter in the first episode, what else do they have to do? What other story could they tell? It would be one season of mild enjoyment, and then done.Was I wrong.What I wasn't planning on was the intricate storyline weaved by the writers, with twists and turns in every episode, churning up more and more secrets that have been chained up for years inside this family. We watch relationships spark, burn out, and rekindle; we say hello to new characters and spit at others' backs as they leave. I personally have fallen in love with some of these characters, and am always excited to see what they've gotten themselves into next week.It's not the storyline that really makes the show - it's the actors that bring it all to the table. In my opinion, the bond between Taylor and Carter is enough to keep me watching. As the twins get to know each other - er, again - these two alone start to steal the show. Whether they are fighting, communicating by looks or hugging it out, you can feel that sisterly bond between them, reducing me to a puddle of "aw" every episode. It's an honest show, with a slight fictional twist, of course - but at the root of it all, it is a strong show that focuses on family drama. And don't we all know how ugly that can turn out.

As others have mentioned before me,its not quite as black and white as it might come of in the trailers.. Finding Carter starts out pretty interesting, and the 2-3 first episodes are entertaining enough.But after that is goes into stereotype mode. Prescott does a fairly good job of playing Carter the long lost kidnapped daughter returned home. But Cynthia Watros does the most horrible job of pretending to be a mother,a cop and a struggling wife. She doesn't look remotely believable as any of the three characters.I mean how many active duty detectives do you know,who walks around in high heels? Carters siblings are mostly one dimensional.Her little brother is a gamer,and thats basically all you know about him.Carter's so called twin sister(which doesn't look remotely believable as a twin) is the bright head of the family, the stereotype good girl who just struggles to break out of her role and be bad. And along comes carter soon she's smoking pot and hooks, up with Carters EX boyfriend, a stoner none the less.And her cop mother even condone. So They come up with a few twist and turns along the way,just so you will stick to the end. Mostly it consists of the usual family dramas.Wife cheating,struggling author of a husband,who feels he's a failure cause he can't come up with another best seller etc. I'm kind of amazed they gave it a second season,cause it's really not that great of a storyline. But I will watch it

I am usually not a fan of these types of shows but lately there has just not been anything interesting on so I decided to give it a try and was hooked after the first 10 minutes!! This show is Interesting, it has a really great plot and most importantly it holds my attention throughout and I like the characters as well. Also love how the scenes are not drawn out. Everything is to the point and It is easy to follow...full of drama, romance and suspense. Really hoping this show goes far and isn't cancelled after one season like everything else that is good out there. I hope this is recognized for being different with potential to be even greater.

So for what's really a family's nightmare, Finding Carter is surprisingly a really good show. With a well developed cast of characters and an original premise, this show doesn't fall into the routine of other procedural or typical family drama as the family works to rebuild after a said crisis.There's very few things wrong with this show - namely Carter believes to easily in her kidnapping but you can't dwell on it as you've gotta move the show along. Her "twin sister" is the biggest thing wrong with the show in that it should be noted as a fraternal twin as most people hear twin and think identical and they're not. And Carter's guy/boy friend is just to dumb.It'll be interesting as the show unfolds. Hopefully we'll get flashbacks of Carter's life with her kidnapper mom, we'll see family life after she was kidnapped. Why did Lori kidnap Carter? Elizabeth's, and the authorities, hunt for Lori. We'll see how Carter impacts the family and they her. I'm glad that Carter throws down with Elizabeth, her birth mom, and still identifies with Lori, her kidnapper mom, as this show could've become a very sappy family reintegration show if it had wanted to.
