Alert: Unidad de personas desaparecidas

The female characters are awful.....plus the main female character's main tag line is "we get our babies back." No police officer would ever promise. Just yuk... what is with the lighting/burning in a government building..dark forces should abduct her...it's a shame some of the story lines could work.

Some of it is too unbelievable, needs a lot of work. It's a shame I like Scott Caan and some of the lines given to him are very tired. Also no cop would ever call suspects "baby" they would end up being on report or getting retrained.

The computer work is too shonky and the only thing of interest is their son. It is weird he is not getting treatment and being checked out for dna. The storyline needs to be fixed.

I love Scott Caan so when I saw he was gonna be on this show I was excited. Dania Ramirez is a good actress as well. HOWEVER, she and the character Kemi are getting on my last nerve!

It has the potential to be a great show but those characters ruin the show especially Kemi's front and center "religion". If another "religion" (especially Christianity) was pushed so hard on a show, it would have probably never seen the light of day.

There is a difference between being smart and being a know-it-all; Kemi is a know it all. My husband is over this show so I will probably turn off the auto-record feature on my dvr after tonight's episode.

Oh and I have to agree with other's comments about Dania always saying (I can't even remember the character's name that's how much I no longer like the character), "we get our babies back, that's what we do". It was cool the first time but in reality she wouldn't be able to keep that promise.

Anyways, just my 2 cents.

Every time this nut Kemi is given screen time, I feel annoyed. The character is a horrible co worker and a lunatic. The writers seem to be pushing acceptance of her being allowed to push her beliefs on the traumatized parents of missing children. Her coworker is allergic to her burning incense and she refuses to stop. I don't know what they are trying to do with her character. The rest of the show is ok, so far. Lots of things happening that would never happen in real life. No police officers would be allowed to do what these ones do. Seems to be an interesting side story that will keep me watching for answers.

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.

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.
