So Help Me Todd

Well, CBS should be ashamed of themselves for cancelling So Help Me Todd. It's a popular show, as the rating here shows.

It's a fresh take on the crime procedural/whodunit genre. The cast are excellent and the writing is really good. There's interesting crimes to solve every week and the interaction between the principals is such great fun, with wit and humour.

I simply cannot understand CBS policy. Why cancel a popular show halfway through a season? And yet other dross shows, with poor ratings, survive. Network politics? Quite frankly, it's almost at the point where it's not worth investing time in a new show until it's been renewed to at least two more seasons, then binge-watch to catch up.

I am fed up with investing my time in a show, only to have the network pull the rug from under my feet.

Why did this get canceled?? Netflix or AppleTv should buy this series and keep making it. Such a good cast, stories and fun. So Help Me Todd is a fun legal dramedy mystery series with good performances. The running gags are humorous and the character development introduced so far is compelling. Can't find fault with anything about it. It's a light show not a serious detective drama. Very watchable. Hardin is a curmudgeon sometimes offers good contrast with Astin playing her private eye son who's recovering from bad decisions. I look forward to seeing how the show progresses and am optimistic it will get better. It's no Better Call Saul but it could get there. Maybe a karaoke scene is required to get some singing in the show!!

5 episodes in and I still want more. It's entertaining. The chemistry is getting better as each episode happens. And after you realize that the distant relationship between the characters in the beginning is part of the underlying backstory, it's easy to start liking them all. I'm enjoying the show and the acting. It's not like they're going for an Oscar or something. It's one of those shows that you just let happen and it pays you back with a few twists and turns, a couple laughs and satisfying story-lines. Enjoy it with a cocktail or something else that helps you smile. I think this show is going to be a good one to binge on a cold winters night once a few seasons are in the can.

I have loved So Help Me Todd from the 1st episode! It is a great who-done-it. The writers and actors are brilliant! It's definitely something I've been waiting on for a very long time. It's hilarious. It's suspenseful. This quirky family's escapades, drama, and chemistry work perfectly together. I look forward to seeing the next episode week after week. I really wish another network would pick up the show and continue on with my favorite new program. I want to know what will happen with Margaret & Gus. Will Harry be back again? What about Allison & her new interest? Will Todd & Susan ever reconnect? Are Lyle & Alex really over? Lawrence & Chet expanding family? And what will become of the firm? Is Beverly a villain? I dread the thought of this favorite being over already. 🙁

I can't believe they canceled this show. I hope another network picks it up. The characters have great chemistry and the storylines keep you engaged and wanting more. The episodes are both simple and complex with enough seriousness to keep it from being unbelievable, and enough laughter to keep it light hearted and entertaining. It's a show I was comfortable watching with my mother and/or friends. I love the relationship that Todd has his with mother and siblings. I could write so much more but with the show being canceled I am sure this is useless feedback. In any event, I truly hope that another network continues with show as it is truly worth watching while decompressing from daily tasks..
