i must have seen a different film!!

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This hit the spot. I have not loved a show this much since i first discovered NCIS. When i discovered today that it was cancelled i felt as if someone has died. I actually went online to order box set, but no point now. This is LIFE(another cancelled show) all over again. Fox get your act together and make stuff real people want to watch not teenagers too many reality shows and not enough good wholesome clean fun like The Finder. P.S I've filled in the petition. And yes i loved Bones but gave up after series 3 , this is much better and could easily go another 3 or 4 series. The actors are brill and all work well together, you get a real sense of 'family' from them a cop, a soldier a lawyer and a thief. I also love the way the show has action, laughs, and trivia, you learn something new from this every show. Law, life, science, art, i could go on.

The Finder is by far better than it's predecessor, in that the characters are more well drawn, and the stories are fresher, as well as the actual methods that the main character uses to get to the end.The characters are unique. Leo Knox played by Michael Clark Duncan was my favorite character, as he was the anchor to the show, and was a highly intelligent man who was also strong physically. Willa was a great addition because she was on the fringe of things, and brought a more youthful viewpoint to the going ons. Plus she's a gypsy, and how often do you see a protagonist that is a gypsy on TV? Simply - The Show is Very Well Done.

I really enjoyed this show. It wasn't the best show ever, but I liked the stories and I liked the characters. It was stultifying to see Fox push this off the Thursday night schedule in order to make room for more American Idol, etc. I can't stand those shows. "The Boy With the Bucket", the season (now series) finale was the best episode by far. It was filled with the most sentiment since "The Conversation", the episode that referred back to Leo's daughter's birthday present. (The emotional energy of that episode was stretched a bit thin, but Leo's character had the strength to pull it through for me...) In "The Boy With the Bucket" we got to meet Walter's brother and parents, and many a tear was shed. It brought everything to a wonderful head and blew almost everyone's world apart, leaving Leo to be Leo - either the old Leo or the new Leo, either to try to pick up the pieces and make sense out of what happened and help get Walter out of the hole, or move on with his life and be callous and firm. I get it that this show was not high brow and that it was uneven and unashamed to bring in the most spectacular absurdities. It had wonderful potential, and the series finale, "The Boy With the Bucket", showed how enjoyable an episode could be when it rose to meet that potential. The choice to use "Is it like today?", one of my favorite songs, for the soundtrack over scenes of Willa hitch hiking and trying to escape Shad nicely summed up the mood of the episode and now sadly, the series.

I love this show -- and the new cast is, in my opinion, far better than the one-off prequel which introduced the show as it spun off from Bones. Geoff Stultz character is played brilliantly as is the whole supporting cast. Even Eric Roberts' gnarly turn as gypsy boss was excellently cast. Where did the writers' come up with this? I thought it far more original than anything else around (I'm sick of your typical CSI crime dramas) with lots of humor to go along with the clever scripts. Having just learned the show did not get renewed, I'm once again so annoyed at myself for giving Fox a chance. They seem to cancel everything I've ever liked and renew all the crap. Too bad. This cast, these writers, this concept were all awesome. I sure hope some other network picks them up. Fox infuriates me.
