Meredith Johnsen This show is A-mazing! The best show that's aired in TV in a long, long, long time! I have been totally hooked on nit this season and am beyond sad to hear that they're going to cancel it. Don't understand! It's something I look forward to every weekend...and NOT for a lack of other things to do.So many shows these days seem like they're trying too hard, whereas this one seems great, effortlessly. It's just plain entertaining...without needing the superfluous nudity, profanity, etc. to make people watch it. You will not miss out on entertainment or drama with this show. It would really be a SHAME to cancel the show. To the powers that be...PLEASE reconsider. Figure out season 2. There is nothing else on TV that even begins to compare!
chinaspartan I have no idea what these other people are thinking. They must be so starved for anything to watch. This has virtually nothing to do with The Firm book or movie. The characters have the same name and that's it. It's so flagrant what they did here. They used The Firm name just to sucker you into watching. And having someone like Josh Lucas made you think this could possibly be a good TV series. It's just a completely random lawyer show where he handles odd, random, meaningless cases. There is some semblance of a plot that they just bury underneath episode after episode of pointless crap that makes it nothing like The Firm. That's fine if people like random legal stories, but don't call it The Firm and try to pass it off as some continuation of the story from the book or movie. Such a terrible show, it will no doubt be cancelled at the first opportunity. How Josh Lucas ever agreed to do this is baffling. It's like Boston Legal, without the comedy. And Boston Legal was actually pretty good...but it's just random episode after random episode with an occasional two minutes spent to briefly mention that there is some kind of season-long plot, but it's just an afterthought. Terrible show. You'll waste your time if you watch it.
cabluedevil25 Have watched THE FIRM since it started. The "wet-behind-the-ears" Tom Cruise has returned 10 years later as the mature Josh Lucas in the Mitch McDeere role -- and that's a huge improvement. Lucas carries the show, and is a terrific (albeit hugely idealistic) lead. The brother Ray has caught fire as his best ally in the past 2-3 shows, after a modest start.I suppose the two biggest reasons I like this show are (1) it's a combination of Perry Mason & The Fugitive, and (2) Tricia Helfer is the most venomous female lead since Jane Badler in "V". She snarls when talking about people behind their backs (all of whom are beneath her), then turns on the charm when they drop into her penthouse office.There are instances in several episodes where the story lags, but then there's an action scene just around the corner to perk you up. Also, each episode includes a weekly case that must be started and decided within about 38-40 minutes of airtime -- not easy to pull off. The rest of the hour is spent on advancing the overall plot line. But despite this observation, it's still a damn good show -- so I'm in for the duration.UPDATE -- so now it's nearly three months later in the saga ... NBC has jacked us around by switching it to Saturday nites, then pre-empting it in a heartbeat. But I'm still t'round, and a loyal fan. I have caught the headlines about the upcoming "cancellation" -- but that's something I'm not buying since we're now only 4-5 shows short of the 22 episodes that were originally shot. I suspect with episode 22 will come the resolution of the whole yarn, and I'm good with that. Josh Lucas is still firmly in control as the lead, and does a damn good job. The characters of Ray, Tammy, and Abby have defined themselves as the weeks have gone by. Two weeks ago, after a surprise suicide, I was trying to figure out where they would head next to keep me riveted, but the storywriters have now brought the long smoldering MOB out of the bullpen, and back into the picture, as well as this surprisingly strange behavioral twist in Mrs. McDeere. I think both of these plots will play out nicely in the next month, and THE FIRM will run its course. Again, I think it is entertaining, dynamic, and just feverish enough in its pacing to outrun our chance to say "now wait a minute" when something doesn't ring 100& true. It is a lot like the vastly underrated film "The Parallax View", where Director Alan Pakula gave us a roller-coaster of (somewhat) plausible plot twists, and never let us catch our breath to protest. So the critique here is unwavering -- I've been in the flow for 18+ weeks, I'm good to go for the final 4. I happen to like this show ... and Josh Lucas is THE MAN... !
nicmegara There is always more to a show than what meets the eye and some critics are either too biased or too old to know what a good show is. I'm not saying i have any experience in that regard but i watch enough TV to know a good show when i see it. The pilot is everything to a new TV show. I believe this show had everything you need in a pilot. Suspense, thrill, curiosity, heart, wit, smarts. etc. etc....The past 4 episodes i've seen haven't failed either. Regardless if you read the stories or saw the movie which i didn't even know existing. I have seen the movie but didn't put the two together. It doesn't matter anyway you will be entertained nonetheless. Great show on a bad network, NBC hasn't been in the loop with good shows. (in my eyes).
