Touches You

Overrated

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I like the show. Why did you Cancel? You should have given it a little more time. For the most part, it has a good cast/character base, it's entertaining and the scripts are better than most of the shows on air. Like "V"....... Maybe it needs a little tweaking with some content, like the episode where the unborn baby gets a congressional "private" bill passed on his/her behalf and the Chinese mother gets her job back. Not every story deserves a happy ending. This has the potential to be a lighter but equally entertaining "Law and Order" or a "Grey's Anatomy" with a legal backdrop. The show has a lot of range. You could add numerous international flavors, given the high level of international firms. (Just remember, not every story in Law and Order is based on Supreme Court rulings) The first years need to make more mistakes, like Grey's Anatomy, when the storyline includes interns making blunders that kill patients. It feels more realistic. Overall, the actors/characters have decent chemistry and this show has a chance.

Personally, I've really enjoyed this show so far. I've noticed that some have mentioned its lack of realistic situations, and although I do see how this can be true, I'm not watching The Deep End for educational purposes - I just want some entertainment to relax to at the end of a long day! The cast is very likable and they all seem to have a natural chemistry with each other, which keeps me interested. The script could be better at times but I think that as the show continues, its individual elements will grow stronger with it.If you're not looking for a documentary on the way a law firm really works, but just want some light entertainment, then I suggest you give The Deep End a try. Who knows? You might just like it! I do :)
