the real hero. I no longer watch trailers because they don't change whether I will watch or not and all I want is the date it will be released. Plus the trailers usually spoil a lot.
On trial for a murder he didn't commit, Mickey must face a relentless DA as he fights to prove his innocence, expose the real killer and save his firm.
This looks like it is right up my mother in law's alley, going to have to give it a pitch. It I watch Designated Survivor one more time I am burning the house down.
I wouldn’t even call it a guilty pleasure. It’s fun, balance drama with comedy, and I love how they weave the characters’ lives with the plot. Honestly a solid show.
It’s nowhere near as good as Bosch, but it’s a very easy and entertaining watch.
The Rookie? Now that’s a guilty pleasure show… (Stuck it out for a number of seasons out of pure Fillion bias, but it’s just such garbage I couldn’t do it anymore)
I have no clue about any of that, but it would explain it’s popularity in spite of it’s stupidity.
There is a place for CBS slop, shit I watched the hell out of all seasons of Hawaii 5-0 with my mom. And a few other similar shows. Perfect for relaxing while eating dinner or not wanting to worry about anything too serious.
But there is a certain level of corny and stupid that when it gets crossed it is no longer bearable.
Its just people talking in rooms or cars. Its not exactly like flying an entire cast of people to South Africa and building half a fake pirate world like they do on One Piece.
I remember the McConaughey movie, which honestly didn't seem like a premise that could be milked for multiple seasons? It's good? And do the seasons have closure? I have lost my patience with these streaming shows with a series-long arc so every season just ends on a cliffhanger, rolling the dice on renewal.
I’ve only seen season 1, but IIRC there are episodic cases he deals with, and an overarching case he’s dealing with that gets resolved in the finale episode
Cobie Smulders role is derived from the material source being important and continue her part to season 5. It is an easy guess. She is the female of …….. What is next book for them to team up?
I loved the style and vibes but when they introduced that Tech CEO caricature that every procedural tv show/modern open world game has. That just killed it for me. Went from something that i thought was cool to run of the mill proceduralslop.
It should crossover with Bosch, as it’s the same author with their being actual crossover in the novels. (Harry and Mickey are half-brothers). But Amazon and Netflix aren’t gonna do that.

the real hero. I no longer watch trailers because they don't change whether I will watch or not and all I want is the date it will be released. Plus the trailers usually spoil a lot.
This show turned out to be a nice surprise for me. I look forward to each season
Agree, it is a fun watch.
Some of the side actors are sort of bad, especially the guy who plays Cisco, but Garcia-Ruflo carries the show for most of it
Its to bad the way they did the rights to the Lincoln lawyer and bosch cause we would have bosch instead of Cisco if they didnt break the series up.
Totally. I still like the show, but the supporting cast is really weak.
May I also suggest Will Trent, is a detective show but has similar vibes.
Yes! I enjoy Will Trent as well
Good good 😊 we have similar tastes (two out of two track record lol)
I watched them all over the holidays. It felt like a good ole USA network mystery warm blanket that’s TV-MA for language. Really a great time!
This show would kill on USA network lol
Same. If the episodes were released weekly and without such huge gaps, I would be obsessed with this show. I tend forget it exists in between seasons.
Nice! My favorite comfort show that appears to be funded by the LA Tourism Board!
And Lincoln!
Check out Goliath with Billy Bob Thornton then. Another good LA based show
Add Bosch into that mix
Its really to bad the way they did the licensing of these shows cause Harry bosch would play a big role in this season
The list of shows churning out new seasons around the 1-year mark is growing. The show started in 2022 and we're getting season 4 in 2026.
Does this qualify as a guilty pleasure? I just love this show
It’s very Blue Sky era and I love it for that!
(Suits, Burn Notice, White Collar, etc)
This is why I love it, too. Fights right in alongside those and Monk, Psych, Royal Pains, etc.
This looks like it is right up my mother in law's alley, going to have to give it a pitch. It I watch Designated Survivor one more time I am burning the house down.
If I hear 'Yah Mo B There' one more time, I'm going to 'Yah Mo' burn this place to the ground
it has a delightful cast of supporting actors
Its a great show. All the characters are good.
So far ive enjoyed every season
I really liked the show, don’t feel guilty watching it
I wouldn’t even call it a guilty pleasure. It’s fun, balance drama with comedy, and I love how they weave the characters’ lives with the plot. Honestly a solid show.
It's perfect to run in the background while I cook.
Why guilty? It's just pleasure.
It’s nowhere near as good as Bosch, but it’s a very easy and entertaining watch.
The Rookie? Now that’s a guilty pleasure show… (Stuck it out for a number of seasons out of pure Fillion bias, but it’s just such garbage I couldn’t do it anymore)
Do people actually watch The Rookie the show? I swear most people only know that show because of Tik Tok and YT shorts.
I have no clue about any of that, but it would explain it’s popularity in spite of it’s stupidity.

Every time this show comes back on, I get to re-hash the fact that Haller and Bosch are brothers to my Grandma lol.
This show is the closest thing I’ve found to the old USA Network Blue Sky era of programming and I’m very much looking forward to the new season.
Wild Cards feels very Blue Sky era to me. It’s a fun watch.
I know of the era but why do you call it Blue sky?
This is the explanation I've found behind the reasoning for the name.
I didn't expect it so soon, that's nice. I enjoyed the previous seasons and I want to see how he gest out of this one.
Its just people talking in rooms or cars. Its not exactly like flying an entire cast of people to South Africa and building half a fake pirate world like they do on One Piece.
Compared to Bosch (same universe, and main characters related) LL is a bit of a cheese fest, but I’m still here for it.
I love Bosch’s court aspect more than LL, I don’t know if that’s because Money Chandler is a phenomenal character.
Awesome! The characters are well cast. Fun bit of personal, serious, stakes. The lead oozes charismatic charm.
The hook of Mickey Haller being in an impossible spot is great.
I remember the McConaughey movie, which honestly didn't seem like a premise that could be milked for multiple seasons? It's good? And do the seasons have closure? I have lost my patience with these streaming shows with a series-long arc so every season just ends on a cliffhanger, rolling the dice on renewal.
there's like 15 lincoln lawyer books lol
More like 8 books.
Every season-arc has a closure, with the last couple of minutes of each season finale leading into the next season.
Perfect! I like a season arc that ends, and a teaser for the next season. I love legal dramas, so have to add this one to my watchlist!
I’ve only seen season 1, but IIRC there are episodic cases he deals with, and an overarching case he’s dealing with that gets resolved in the finale episode
Yay I love this show
Do we know if Neve is back for the whole season?
She should be. Her character plays a major part in the book they’re adaptingÂ
Looks like IMDB credits her in all the episodes of Season 4.
Fab news! Thank you!
Its still going? Fuck yeah, thought Netflix had pull the plug.
They can do 5 seasons a year if they want, I'll.keep watching.
Cobie Smulders role is derived from the material source being important and continue her part to season 5. It is an easy guess. She is the female of …….. What is next book for them to team up?
This season is based on The Law of Innocence book.
Finally. What the Hell?
I won’t watch the trailer because I don’t want to spoil myself but I do hope that gorgeous prosecutor returns and the mother/daughter do not.
Anyone else get bored into the second season?
I loved the style and vibes but when they introduced that Tech CEO caricature that every procedural tv show/modern open world game has. That just killed it for me. Went from something that i thought was cool to run of the mill proceduralslop.
Look, I'm excited! They should cross over with The Rookie, it'll be perfect.
It should crossover with Bosch, as it’s the same author with their being actual crossover in the novels. (Harry and Mickey are half-brothers). But Amazon and Netflix aren’t gonna do that.
Haha this I actually know
Harry shows up quite a bit in Ballard if you are looking for a quick Bosch fix.
Show is so ass compared to the books
The Lincoln Lawyer is bad, but very watchable. So good, in a way?
