Joe Pickett

Having read some of the books it is a little different as usual. Over all, I loved it. Very entertaining and enjoyable. The actors are pretty good and their parts were pretty believable. I would highly recommend it. I will probably watch it again.

Been so tired of the trash being put out that it was refreshing to watch this show.. It's back to basics... Other than a few scenes that could have been shot better, the story plot, suspense, and acting all support ne another. A very cohesive thriller that relies on all three. A real art... and no fake.action scenes used as fillers. I.m hoping and looking forward for more to come.

Many TV shows will, in the end, not be perfect with things like poor cgi, editing, writing and acting. For the most part, Picket was pretty darn good for the first 6 episodes before any major issue surfaced.

By episodes 7-9 the needed information or thing just started to fall into the lap of the good guys and the bad guys seemed to get dumber or suddenly acted out of character. Episode 8 went on way too long and episode 9 wrapped up halfway through.

There is a little environmental preaching in here and what little there is fits into the overall story and I don't feel like I have been clubbed.

Even with that the show was entertaining and I found myself liking the main characters. All of the actors did an excellent job, even the children.

I have never read the books but want to and I will be clicking on season 2 here shortly.

As a huge fan of the books I had reservations. Especially after Big Sky turned out to be such a disappointment. I was won over quickly by the actors. They brought the world of the novels to life for me. Joes commitment to his family,job,and sense of right and wrong is a breath of fresh air in our troubled times. One quibble would be the casting of Nate as a softer guy than I would have liked but future seasons could correct that. Please make more seasons!

Series one: well done production, good story details and character motivation. The cast is excellent and acting overall good. This is a soft thriller, not overly violent and fairly realistic. The first episode is representative, but the story becomes complex and interrelated as it continues...
