Well, dam#.   It's not great.  It's pretty formulatic but I've enjoyed it and there is nothing else I was watching on TV, series wise.  Plus, I like Jimmy Smits and Jayne Atkinson.

Re: Bluff City Law - Cancelled!

Hour-long scripted shows are expensive to make, compared to the so-called "reality-type" programs.  So if they aren't immediately successful, their chances of survival are slim.  And many people just aren't watching network TV anymore, so it's tough.

I gave it two episodes and quit.  Thought the show was just a copy of so many that have come before it.  No originality at all.  I love most legal/law shows, but this one didn't cut it for me.  Not surprised it may be canceled.

10/18: Bluff City Law (NBC) will end its debut season with its 10th episode, despite a previous order of 6 additional scripts. While the show has technically not been canceled, a second season seems extremely unlikely.

I'm not surprised.  While it isn't the worst new show; it is dull, boring and entirely predictable.  They canceled it so quickly, they must know there is no hope at all for it.

A suggestion ..... if you really like a show that gets cancelled, go to the network website, find "Contact Us", usually at the bottom of the home page, and COMPLAIN.   

 

Not only will it make you feel better, but the networks need to know when they screw up.   

 

I once worked with a gal who'd previously worked for NBC in NYC.   They took complaints very seriously, because most people don't bother to write or give feedback.  They always assumed that for every memo of complaint, there were at least another thousand people who felt exactly the same way.

Thank you for suggesting this @Tinkrbl44 .  I took your advice and did this just now.

Re: Bluff City Law - Cancelled!

Last night was Episode 5, so there must be 5 more already filmed. I really like it, but I do like Good Doctor better at the same time.

I just deleted it from my recordings.  What's the point of watching something that seems to have no future.
