Alert: Unidad de personas desaparecidas

Not a fan of Scott Caan but decided to give this a try anyway. Not bad though not good either. But still it's watchable. Some parts of the show are better than others. I think it needs time to wear on a person. The more episodes I watched the more I got involved with the characters & got to kinda like them. So I'll probably continue watching as there isn't much else to watch. Not a reality TV or game show fan. So I will hang in there & hopefully it will get even better over time. I think people should give this a chance & not give up on it. The show just needs time to develop so just hang in there.

OMG!!! If I hear one more time "we bring our babies back, it's what we do" I'm going to vomit!!! I absolutely hate it. Truthfully the best part about this show is the storyline about the son. That's why I come back each week. I want to know what happened and I want to know what's up with the sister. The missing persons track is okay. A new story each week. Sadly this is something too may people know all to well. Especially children going missing. I wish they all turned out like they do on this show. Sadly no. Actually there's A lot of this that isn't realistic. In if the big ones is the voodoo in the office. If it's a government office you da*m we'll know it would never happen! I don't care how woke. I could be wrong. Truthfully it adds nothing to the show anyway. But it's not as bad as the tagline. Didn't I mention I HATE IT! And want to punch her face every time I hear it. Maybe thats just me.

This could have been a really great show. But, instead it had so many ridiculous things happening every episode. The main female detective calling everyone baby was cringy. Her also telling everyone that they would bring back the missing person. It's well established that you can't promise people what your not sure of happening. Let's not even get started on the Voodoo/spiritualist who goes around in a police room reading people and using eggs to tell the future. Stories about finding missing people and the professionals who help achieve it could have been a really inspiring series. This was a failure.

I gave it 3 episodes just to be fair,,, But I will be deleting this show from my list!! The script is so unbelievably boring... the show drags and I find myself checking how much longer I had to endure this lackluster barely thought out show. The scenes are so far from reality and really gives a misunderstanding about what happens when a missing child is found and processed. I could probably place a bet that no TRUE research was done before they started writing the script. It's all around BAD!!!

Scott needs to start looking for a better show because this one will only put him in a negative light.

I'm not one those people where a Tv show has to be bordering on high art to be good. I'm pretty forgiving of artistic license if the show is entertaining but Alert is a hot mess. You can feel the writers' room throwing everything at the wall to make the show interesting. The problems with this show are numerous. The characters have baggage they stop an investigation to talk it out. Like airlines they should have a baggage limit or pay a fee. The humblebragging. Characters have to list their achievements all the time. Most breakthroughs have to be explained for two minutes while forgetting they have 60 seconds to save a life. Inappropriate behavior. Two of the unit members are in a relationship. In one scene, they tell parents finding their child is their top priority and then go into closet to bang. One of the characters believes in past lives and mysticism, etc. But her behavior is meant to be quirky and cute when it's pretty offensive. In one episode, she asks to rub eggs on the parents of a missing child for good luck! WTF! The same character chewed out a person in a planning department for not being able to identify a property's address by the dimensions of a southeast facing basement. Yeah, planning departments don't work like that. There's a lot of technobabble on digital data manipulation that is designed to compete with CSI forensic technobabble. There's a lot of manufactured action scenes that are silly and just there for the drama. And I'm only scratching at the surface of the character and story issues this show has. The problem is no one is standing back from it all to keep their show from getting silly. The shame of it is there's a good show here if given the right attention.
