Very well executed

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

An action-packed slog

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

So just going into the second season I have got to say that although I love the story and will continue to watch this show I feel like there should have only been four seasons and that the second season should have been the first season. There was a story going on in the first season it is like they decided to completely redo the story in the second season and make the first season a complete write off!At the end of the first season Detective Marks was alive although her condition was guarded, with Toby's search for his mom and to find out what happened to her. Then the second season starts with Detective Marks having died, it is a year and half later, and Toby seems to have completely given up on the search for his mom and to find out what happened to her? I kept thinking there were episodes that I have missed to explain the gap, so I went back to the first season to look and nope. Also what is going on with Olivia in the first season she seemed completely OK with Toby reading minds but in the second season they seem to have broken up for good.Very poor writing and planning if you ask me.

When the series first came out I was actually looking forward to it. While I don't believe it's possible for someone to read other people's minds, in and of itself I deemed it irrelevant and watched for the sheer entertainment value of it. Before the end of the season I was completely hooked, and was excited at the prospect of it being picked up for more seasons. But I waited a very long time because it was canceled from the one network - but finally got picked up by another - yay! I however, didn't find out about this until it had been back for a couple seasons so I had some ground to make up. Didn't bother me - I enjoyed the pursuit of catching up. I have missed some episodes tho - dunno when the one guy was replaced by Peter Stebbings, but I enjoyed the program even more. To say I was disappointed when he was taken off and the other guy put back in - that's putting it mildly. I haven't seen it since. I have recorded a couple since in hopes they brought him back, but deleted when I saw that other guy still there.

I so wanted to give this so a better rating. But after seeing 2 episodes I am almost ready to say good bye! The Cop and the Ex girlfriend are terrible. Great looks but stupid. The Cop has Everybody's Guilty No ones innocent complex. The Doc is Not very trusting of anyone. The partner is funny. Not sure about the Boss. If they calm the two women down I think this show just might work.Though the concept is interesting, the final product is more than lacking. Bad plot, leaving no mystery at all. Horrid acting; no chemistry between anyone. What I feel is the only good part of this show is the scenes for the main character "reading" a person's mind. Too bad. It sounded very interesting.

I have read a few good reviews about the show, but I would have to say it is not very good. It seems to confuse the different "gifts" that he may have. From the beginning it seemed like he was only telepathic, then it seemed he had a couple more abilities than that. That is not my biggest problem though. To me, it is a very boring series that may try to copycat many others. Really, it's just boring. So many time i rolled my eyes. I have never made a review on this website before either. It seems as though they are very picky and critique everything you say. So I would say that a person's opinion does not seem to mean much anymore. Smile and bear it:)
