    The chemistry is getting better...

    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.

    One of the better shows

    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!!

    Unexpectedly Charming

    I have to say that when I saw the idea behind the show I wasn't immediately taken by this. But then I got VERY sick and was stuck at home and it felt like I'd watched everything, so I gave it a shot. Wow... I was so surprised how much I enjoyed it.

    This show definitely stretches the limit on how the law works and isn't the most accurate... But that's not why you watch a show like this. This show has heart and made me smile every single episode. I like how each character is slowly built and I really hope there's another season so I can learn more about some of the others!

    Hands down the star of each scene is Marcia Gay Harden. The other actors around her are also good, but she really commands the screen when she's on it. Hope you give it a shot!

    Such a great show

    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..

    Finally something cute to watch!

    Love this show so far!!!! It's so cute, a bit dramatic, but perfect this day and age!!! With so many things on tv that are regurgitated, boring and downright awful I'm so glad they made something that's light and cute to watch!!!! We can finally watch something on tv that's not over complicated and completely new.

    Seriously if you are looking for something to watch that gives you good feels this is it. Seriously hope they continue to make this cute series. Don't expect anything over stimulating. This is for the people looking for something light and something. Sorry for the over used words but I just wanted to give props to this show!
