... View MoreI know you are expected to suspend belief when it comes to TV, but I just couldn't get past the notion of her being brought into the FBI, allowed out in the field with a gun (albeit with a permit) with trained agents, all just because she'd previously been kidnapped herself. If they'd kept her in an office and used her supposed insight over coms it might have made it a bit more bearable. I'm only giving it 2 stars because of Danny Pino and Chris Noth.
... View MoreWhat happens if you put Mr Big together with a former Law & Order SVU / Cold Case detective and Glimmer from The Hunger Games? To be honest I thought nothing happens. The first trailer of Gone left me like "well ok another crime drama with borings characters, don't care" but after I watched the first two episodes, I was so caught up on this show.First: Yes, it's a crime procedural, one case an episode and a "main story" in the background. Second: Yes, it might be nothing new.But: Don't judge this show too quickly. The pilot was solid, not brilliant or something. But the other episodes begin to build a really great story and we get to see a lot of interesting cases with well written plots and some plot twists. But what really makes this show so great is the cast and the characters. Danny Pino as FBI Agent Bishop is so brilliant, I actually could have watched this show just for his acting. Leven Rambin does a really good work, too. Their characters Kick and Bishop are full of flaws and that's what makes them really catchy. And we can see the characters grow which I really like when watching a show. All in all Gone is a really good crime show with a bit drama, a lot of secrets and mysteries, amazing actors and a lot of hope in every episode.
... View MoreWas really looking forward to watching GONE, especially with the experience of Noth and Pino. The idea of a rescued child abductee being offered a job to join a Special Task Force Team only because she was abducted as a child, was a bit far fetched. But thought will still give it a go. And gee, what a drag Leven Rambin's character is. Sorry but her bad acting is just atrocious for the character she portrays. Being a self defence instructor is bad enough to watch, but giving a kid a gun that she has absolutely no idea how to use, she takes charge bursting into houses . Just cannot get past how this actress hasn't even been taught how to use a gun, yet alone handle one. A real shame as all the other actors fit into GONE superbly. Chris Noth is just so chill and classy, would be so much better if he was given more of the lead, I mean he is the boss after all.
