Ok so I just got through the first 5 episodes of this show and I'm still waiting to get "hooked" - I'm going to see out the rest of season 1 as there are only 9 in total but I really hope some dynamic changes or I will probably drop it after that. It's good, but it's not great and there are too many great shows on here that win out over this (so far)

This show should not be in Action Adventure category.... it should be in Drama. I'd finished watching season 1 and just starting 2 episodes of season 2 and I definitely believed that this is a drama show coz my tears really rolled down

look at how many shows drama section compared action-adventure ?

because I don't see any action in the show... like if we talk about die hard movies we will think of really action movies right? or like 24, it's definitely action. but here, yes they carry weapons, and sometime they fire but there's not much action but drama... anyway, I love the show...

This really was a brilliant first episode to season 3. I had a feeling they were going to let Lewis die but it was still very sad. Although he's not a pivotal character, ironically we grew more attached to him in this episode.

Looking forward to the rest of this season!

Another good episode but I have few questions about this episode, first of all it was very convenient that one of kid had a allergic reaction which lead to her surrendering the kids but i have wonder what would of happen if that didn't happen?.

Secondly how did she track down her kids one kid is reasonable but both kids what a chance both kids  who were adopted were in same State?.

One thing good thing both girls discovered they are sisters . If that kidnapping never happen neither one would know other existed.

I really liked this episode. I don't think he didn't donate only because he didn't want his wife to know. Like they said, the test shows that the kid is really his. That is stagitory rape and he could go to jail for that and that would change his life. He would lose his job, the community wouldn't support him anymore and he could have lost his family.
But in the end he made the right decision.

I think the new episode was great!
It's a shame that they couldn't prevent the man from setting off the bomb, but except for him everyone is going to be fine.
Jules breaking up with the guy was a bit double, on one hand I saw it coming because they focussed so hard on her and sam and the obvious unresolved feelings (of Sam), but one the other hand I thought that she had moved on and had really fallen for this guy.
For me this show proofs that the tention doesn't end once you make a couple. Although Sam en Jules have been together and broke up again, the tention is still there and if you can create that, you have a great show.
Therefore I say to all the makers of the series to take an example on this show!
And I'm already looking forward to the next case.
Oh btw, the note from Jules was sweet
Author: bala    Time: 1-20-2011 05:10     Subject: Reply 60#60 kellemanske's post

Well yeah it does create tension but problem is they work together when deal with hostage situation there have to be level-headed just look at Julies in this episode she didn't have to go in but she did because he did not exactly the best move but it nice to actually see Julies in a dress for a change which is rare.

I agree shame he set off the bomb but these episode really show is that Muslims are still targeted over these attacks and it's so easy to blame them when most of them are innocent. I don't think these situation are ever going resolve.

It create prejudice towards them these episodes don't exactly help it's a constant reminder about London bus bombing which happen ages ago. .

It was paramedic who went in and Jules followed him, it was stupid and not a great thing to do, but on the other hand, Jules is trained to be in that kind of situation so maybe it wasn't so bad.
Sam may be a bit recless wenn it comes to Jules but that's fun to watch.
I don't think your right about the effect of the episode though, although they brought the london bombings back tot the attention, they also showed that some moslims were just trying to do a good thing and got cought up in the terrorist thing. And the man was cleared, he wasn't involved. + it was a white male who set off the bomb. So I don't think it was so bad to do this episode. I think it really shows that you can't judge based on superficial facts and that these are also just people who can make mistakes, who have a lot in commun with Christians and I think that was shown here.

Yes I know, but then again he used one of his patients to keep himself from getting blamed for it so I think that's different. I understand if you want to go after the people you think killed your wife, but to let someone else do it for you and set them up that's just completely wrong.
