Deteriorating fast
18 January 2023
I enjoyed Scott Cann in Hawaii 5.0, so I gave this show a try. He remains likeable, but I'm quickly running out of patience with the writing and with the other characters. Our heroine, a detective specializing in recovering people who have disappeared, is entirely too sentimental: if I hear her say one more time "we get our babies back", particuarly when referring to middle aged people, it will be one time too many. There is another detective who thinks she has had past lives, and connects with the victims' families by rubbing eggs on them: now this was cute once or twice, but it's getting weird, and perhaps a bit cruel when she supposed with sandlewood allows a comatose patient to communicate for a very limited few lines. Unless you want an audience of all 20 year olds, cut back on the sex triangles. In the real world, sex in the back room of a police station is going to get you fired.

And the older daughter looks maybe five years younger than her mother, and certainly older than a high school student. My husband says that they're highly specialized police professionals, and they're acting like horny teenagers.
