CGiii Comment
Well...after 156 episodes...it's a wrap...it started and ended with a slap.
Seven years...gone in the blink of an eye!
So...what's wrong with the 2016 season...just about everything!
No Kalinda...the only decent character in the whole thing! Gone...seemingly because Archie and Julianna didn't get along...a case of: don't steal my thunder, bitch!
Anyway...this could be the last season...if things don't improve...where's the gay brother?!?
You have to wait until episode 15 until Mr Cumming makes an appearance...and, from then on in, they all start coming out of the closet.
A decent first series - thoroughly watchable even if a little too formulaic. All the judges come across as total buffoons - hopefully, not a true reflection on the American judicial system!
Hopefully, series 2 will have more to chew upon. It needs nasty...just like lawyers.
