stevegill-44313 Poor acting and writing plus ridiculous plots. The show is so intent on banter and being cute that it is ridiculous. Situations are not believable. Too bad, such a great subject with so much history deserved better treatment. Pinkerton Agency was professional and serious and should not have been portrayed in this flippant manner. If you watched the show, dis it resemble history? See below.Pinkerton, founded as the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, is a private security guard and detective agency established in the United States by Allan Pinkerton in 1850 and currently a subsidiary of Securitas AB. Pinkerton became famous when he claimed to have foiled a plot to assassinate president-elect Abraham Lincoln, who later hired Pinkerton agents for his personal security during the Civil War. Pinkerton's agents performed services ranging from security guarding to private military contracting work. Pinkerton was the largest private law enforcement organization in the world at the height of its power.During the labor strikes of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, businessmen hired the Pinkerton Agency to infiltrate unions, supply guards, keep strikers and suspected unionists out of factories, and recruit goon squads to intimidate workers. One such confrontation was the Homestead Strike of 1892, in which Pinkerton agents were called in to reinforce the strikebreaking measures of industrialist Henry Clay Frick, acting on behalf of Andrew Carnegie. The ensuing battle between Pinkerton agents and striking workers led to the deaths of seven Pinkerton agents and nine steelworkers.The Pinkertons were also used as guards in coal, iron, and lumber disputes in Illinois, Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia as well as the Great Railroad Strike of 1877 and the Battle of Blair Mountain in 1921. The organization was pejoratively called the "Pinks" by its opponents.The company now operates as "Pinkerton Consulting & Investigations, Inc. d.b.a. Pinkerton Corporate Risk Management", a division of the Swedish security company Securitas AB. The former Government Services division, PGS, now operates as Securitas Critical Infrastructure Services, Inc.
i-can-sing Sorry I really wanted to like this series Just could not get into it. First she the detective was so unconvincing as an actress let alone a detective, the plots were so cliché that was probably why I became so bored in the 1st 2 episodes.That is where i stopped watching. Her 1st disguise just looked like her night going out on the town. The men were par for the course but if the woman was a better choice she might have spiced up the series and the men!
timcurryis god The Pinkertons were a "detective agency," read: hired mercenaries for the U.S. government protecting the ruling elite's business interest. They literally assassinated striking workers and other dissidents so that capitalist ruling class could prevail and continue to exploit the labor of the working class. Kind of in really supremely bad taste to name a TV show about detectives "The Pinkertons" and paint them as "the good guys." Really gross.
woodcutter-08793 A total disappointment. I just watched the first episode. The set is nice. It did use a nice train, but even that was unrealistic. It was too clean. The Mrs. Warne character is not believable, especially during the scene where she was held prisoner by the train robbers.At another scene, the Pinkertons had just figured out that they had 45 minutes to stop a train or it would be blown up. You'd expect galloping to save the people on the train. No. They trotted, casually to the next scene, where they were ambushed. Even though the opposing groups were in close proximity of each other and that the robbers were former Confederate soldiers, they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn while every shot fired by the Pinkertons hit their mark. There was hardly any cover used (except for papa Pinkerton) who used a sawed-off shot gun that did little damage.I like this genre of movies, but this one was obviously badly directed and just unrealistic. I can't watch another one.
