Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
seejudy I love the series The Finder and Iam so sad they only did about a half season. The characters are well written and they have affection for one another. Willa is not only deep and dark but she's hilarious. Walter is odd but it makes sense in this series. Leo's character breaks your heart but he is strong and keeps on living his life. I just wish it had been continued.
dst-thomas I really enjoyed this show. It wasn't the best show ever, but I liked the stories and I liked the characters. It was stultifying to see Fox push this off the Thursday night schedule in order to make room for more American Idol, etc. I can't stand those shows. "The Boy With the Bucket", the season (now series) finale was the best episode by far. It was filled with the most sentiment since "The Conversation", the episode that referred back to Leo's daughter's birthday present. (The emotional energy of that episode was stretched a bit thin, but Leo's character had the strength to pull it through for me...) In "The Boy With the Bucket" we got to meet Walter's brother and parents, and many a tear was shed. It brought everything to a wonderful head and blew almost everyone's world apart, leaving Leo to be Leo - either the old Leo or the new Leo, either to try to pick up the pieces and make sense out of what happened and help get Walter out of the hole, or move on with his life and be callous and firm. I get it that this show was not high brow and that it was uneven and unashamed to bring in the most spectacular absurdities. It had wonderful potential, and the series finale, "The Boy With the Bucket", showed how enjoyable an episode could be when it rose to meet that potential. The choice to use "Is it like today?", one of my favorite songs, for the soundtrack over scenes of Willa hitch hiking and trying to escape Shad nicely summed up the mood of the episode and now sadly, the series. (you can easily find the lyrics on the web - lyricstime.com/world-party-is-it-like-today- lyrics.html)
uffb This is one of the best TV series out there. A very entertaining comedic drama... The regular characters are simply beautiful souls. The Finder's "Legal Adviser" stands out in this respect, but the other character each have their endearing quirks and come across as people anyone would love to have as a friend. Combine that with a quirky and engaging story line, and you have a series which is consistently one of the most entertaining and engaging things on TV these days. Sometimes the Rube Goldberg devices Walter creates to help his thought processes are clearly impossible for one person to create in under a month, but aside from the suspension of disbelief required for that, this series is essentially flawless.
crazyladymaddox When we saw the episode for the finder on Bones we immediately said how great it would be for them to have their own show. Then when it did show up this season we were ecstatic! And I must say we were not disappointed! Walter couldn't be a more perfect mix of crazy, smart, mysterious and likable. And Leo is great! A perfect tough tank of a man with a soft heart and pulls it off wonderfully. The chemistry between Walter and Isabelle is a fun sidenote in the show. I do miss the Brit that was in the Bones episode but Isabel is nice too. I really like Willa as well. She brings a young vibe with a funny smart- butt teenage attitude while still being likable and endearing. I truly hope this series is renewed. I think it would be a mistake not to! Hey, FOX pay attention! RENEW THIS SERIES!!!!
