Touches You

hyped garbage

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I really wanted to like this as I have long been a fan of Angela Griffin, but the show is very disappointing. There is not one likeable character in it and the three women leads are just awful. I like Wendy Crewson and I expect the writers wanted to portray her character as a 'tough female in authority' but she just comes across as being bolshy, rude and annoying. The young detective is ridiculously immature - and to find out in episode 7 that she has been in the police force for 10 years? And as for Angela Griffin's accent? Not a winner in my opinion - check out the original - it was far superior.

I like how they maid each character expectacularly different and interesting with a wonderful back history. It has a dark story but at the same time funny sometimes. Well played thank you

I was looking forward to this new Canadian series but sadly it fails on all fronts. The story lines are a sad re-hash of the excellent British series "Scott and Bailey". Surely there must be some Canadian writers with an ORIGINAL idea. The acting is unconvincing. Better to watch Scott and Bailey again than to waste your time on this lack luster attempt.

Why would these so called liberated female actresses allow themselves to be portrayed as female police detectives who can't get over the rotten men in their lives? This premiere episode focused on not one (1), not two (2), but three (3) women who were experiencing trouble in their relationship with men. The main gist of this episode is surrounding a woman who was murdered and her husband is the prime suspect. Now this prime suspect husband happens to be having an extra marital affair with a nurse who represents the third women in this trilogy of women who pick the wrong men to get involved with.I thought this was supposed to be a crime show not an afternoon soap opera?I think I will stick to watching re-runs of Rookie Blue and Major Crimes.The Detail rates a low 4 out of 10 on my rating list.
