ElessarAndurilS My wife introduced me to Blood and Oil after the first episode. I wasn't that excited about the show, but was hoping I would like it so we had a show we could watch together. I was pleasantly surprised as the show has a decent story line and moves at a good clip in developing the characters so you can build your camp of friends and foes quickly. Easy to hate Hap because he's a jerk and his nickname is Hap when he is an evil twisted man. Coming up on the season finale and I'm reading horrible press and seeing ratings that are poor in the only meaningful category (how sad it is when I compare ratings to the IMDb list of top 250 rated shows and see what PEOPLE actually like and have liked over time). I think the pace of the show in establishing the good, bad and the many secrets hiding out to be discovered. I'm reading it will likely be cancelled which while I can find fault with the ridiculous tactics in certain parts of the story, example: the lack of communication between Billy and Cody causing them to so easily fall into temptation with others when a simple conversation would normally clear up such things between a husband and wife is the tried and true writing of technique of soap/sitcom writers for decades. Problem, makes for a predictable story. But then it is overly done and it isn't done with the most important parts of the story. I think the show should continue and at least get a solid footing in a battle between Hap and the ex that could take him down, if not ding him good for being such a tool. But the show has interesting characters and plenty of emotional fuel to drive it to at least give it one more season to develop a following. I'm not going to lose any sleep if they cancel it, but it is good enough to keep going for another season and given so much junk driving me to Netflix for the majority of my entertainment they really should let this ride a bit. My 8 is based on where I think it could go if they stay away with the formula tactics and develop a full blown battle between Hap and his enemies as he is easy to hate, but needs to lose some battles to establish something current for his arrogance and attitude. But things are rarely given a chance in this age of demand for immediate returns so I won't hold my breath, but I will hope for the best and that it will earn that 8 (where it's struggling to get up to from a 6.5)!
edemery-87813 This is one of the best new shows ever. My husband and I watch it every Sunday and the way the episodes end with you hanging we can't wait for the next one. So glad to see Don Johnson back on TV and these characters very believable and interesting. Twists and turns all appreciated, keeps the story moving and captivating. Right from the start I was ready to compare it to Dallas, but I think this one is even better, more edgy and dark. I think this could be the one new show of 2015 that actually makes TV worthwhile again. I like these types of shows that grab you and you just can't wait for the next episode. There hasn't been one of these in a long time - welcome back Sunday night TV.
kittywaymo I love Blood and Oil! If you love intelligent, in-depth characters whom you will adore after the Pilot, and some guilty pleasure Sunday night soap indulgence, you will get addicted to Blood and Oil!! I love a TV series that gives me something to look forward to! This storyline is interwoven tightly to reveal wonderfully complex leads and supporting roles, It stars Don Johnson who always plays rich characters bigger than life but likable. He is Hap Briggs, an oil tycoon that definitely plays dirty and lives on the edge. His beautiful wife, played by Amber Valetta, who, as Hap's wife, perfectly masters high breeding with lustful greed and treachery. Then there's gorgeous Rebecca Rittenhouse as Cody the character you might find yourself rooting for the most. She's idealistic, works as s pharmacy tech, and is the backbone of support to her husband Billy played by the handsome Chase Crawford from " Gossip Girl's." Billy is the new kid in town , literally and is dragged into the topsy turvy world of Hap and his deadly beautiful wife, on a tale that is perhaps cautionary: sometimes we do get what we want.Scott foster plays Hap's son Wick,A bright, good looking young man who was handed everything, but still can't seem to get it right. This show does not disappoint. I am so happy after many years of boring shows on TV to have something to really look forward to!
Aleksey S. Interesting setting - check. Great chemistry between lead actors - check. Solid supporting cast - check. Story moving along briskly - check. Great cinematography - check.This promises to be just the right kind of slickly done action-soap-opera, a world with modern-day-Wild-West intrigue. This show reminds me of Hell On Wheels, despite the obvious anachronism of being set in modern times.It is filmed well, the couple who are the main protagonists have genuine chemistry. They don't seem like "actors", "acting to be a couple" - at all.The characters have believable motivations, and the show has heart. Heart is something that's been present in many shows of the 90s and earlier, regardless of their objective quality, but in the cynical age of today it has been lost. "Breaking Bad", for example, a great show otherwise, didn't have heart. Many shows of today find it safer to stick to cynicism and negative humor. "Blood & Oil" is refreshingly earnest - it doesn't twist itself into a pretzel to manipulate the viewer. As result, its emotion is simple and therefore relatable. When you feel for someone in this show, you feel it with them. Whoever's in charge of this show, has a clarity of vision. Let them never lose it.
