Desperate Housewives - TV Show Reviews - Metacritic

Season 2 Review: 'Desperate Housewives' is the worst show on the broadcast networks. ... The show is adrift in silly contrivances (as opposed to inventive situations), painful dialogue and obvious wheel-spinning. The solution to ending or spicing up any boring story line is just to inject some over-the-top melodrama or at the very least, have various characters in floods of tears or running ...

Brenda Strong Mary Alice Young 175 Episodes (2004-2016) Kathryn Joosten Karen McCluskey 111 Episodes (2004-2016) Charlie Carver Porter Scavo 99 Episodes (2004-2016)

Summary: CSI is an innovative, new type of crime drama because the characters use cutting-edge forensic tools to examine the evidence to solve the case. Rather than a 'whodunnit' cop show (investigating witnesses/suspects), CSI explores the 'howdunnit'. CSI has been the number one scripted series in the Neilsen ratings for four years running.

Season 2 Review: I’m Dying Up Here is stuck on a dead stage, trying out any material it can and failing to pursue the few parts that deserve further exploration. Between a few moving dramatic moments (Ralph, played by Erik Griffin, is underutilized), a few too many crass jokes about women (Clark Duke’s Ron, who performs on “Soul Train,” is really out of place this year), and a few too ...

the show was never "tv perfection" the first season is unwatchable, stuff happens on screen and you need to go with the flow. clear example: neighboor dan, had a niece living with him. a 12 years old kid was casted, and SHOOT into the intro. just for 4 episodes later, beeing written off, the show was never "tv perfection" the first season is unwatchable, stuff happens on screen and you need to ...

Season 1 Review: With a tin ear for nuance and a heavy hand with characterization and plotting, this contrived and unconvincing crime drama set amid the splendor of Canada's Rockies reminds us how easily show like Fargo or Ozark could go off track if we ever felt a step ahead of the predictable action. [2-15 Oct 2017, p.15]

Season 1 Review: The Commish is a conventional cop series that will rise or fall on the strength of its main character, so it may have a shot. Chiklis, a stumpy dynamo who played John Belushi in Wired, is instantly likable as Scali, an "unorthodox" police commissioner in suburban New York.

Season 1 Review: Pearson lacks the life of Political Animals (which itself was also an atypical USA series at the time); but at the same time, it is going for that grittier approach and one on a much smaller scale. The best true comparison to be made for Pearson is that it’s kind of like a basic cable version of Damages (only focused on politics instead of law) in terms of approach and scope.

Season 1 Review: It boldly commits to its campy, overcast aesthetic--and it’s here I’ll note that I’m not naturally inclined toward teen melodrama, but can be drawn in if the execution’s great enough (like The O.C., or Everwood, whose creator Greg Berlanti is an executive producer here)--while struggling at times to turn its characters from archetypes into individuals.

Season 1 Review: Pullman and Biel are solidly in charge of their pivotal roles in a drama where “close-ended” presumably means a firm conclusion and no Season Two. So at an economical eight episodes, all this gloom and doom at least has the benefit of also being foreseeably finite. Expect your tolerance to be tested, though, particularly in the first half of Episode One.

Season 2 Review: The innovative blend of form, mood and tone in Jane the Virgin continues to be an accomplishment of the highest order. It is envisioned, edited and curated with great deftness and economy, and the fact that it is so entertaining and accessible should not preclude it from being at the center of conversations about the best the medium has to offer.

Season 1 Review: There are moments in which the acting and the dialogue in A.D. achieve a quiet and entirely believable beauty, suitable for devout and secular audiences. But as soon as I say that, here comes the “Constantine”-esque angel riding the blazing meteor down to the tomb in the middle of the night for the rolling away of the big, round stone.

Season 1 Review: The heroine's fearless and clever character, the self-knowledge and self-possession her tormentors lack, and her gift for survival are fixed from first to last. She is sometimes thwarted but never altered. If this makes The Book of Negroes less psychologically complex than it otherwise might be, there are real pleasures and comforts to be had from it.

Season 1 Review: Book fans may be at a slight advantage, since if you’ve forgotten who someone is in a book, you can always go back a few pages. That is a minor complaint in the face of a series that gripped me from frame one, despite telling a very small, intimate story that occasionally amounts to two girls learning lessons about how the world works and little else.
