Vanished

Hi. This is the kind of series that catch your attention from the beginning. some unknown cast, others not, but good argument and solid history. first of all it starts with the disappearing of the senator's "actual wife". then a mystery lies beneath senator's family. is son maintains contact with his biological mother that's separated from his father (the senator). the senator's daughter as a "strange" relationship with a boy, but as long as you go deep in the history, the more answers you will find for your questions, but doubts will appear. each episode is full of mystery, action, suspense, and in some way we can predict what's going to happen, but not how its going to happen. This series is a must see.

If the lead character is changed... If they don't overcast the stars from other (mostly CSI) dramas. If the plot will be sufficiently twisty. And if the cinematographer maintains the quality it did in the pilot.

...then this show can survive, but as the other comment said, the main character is too, way too aggressive and he causes the audience to lose focus from the "good" story and other "almost there" characters.

The main plot is kinda straightforward at the beginning, there is the Senator, his wife, who gets kidnapped (you can't know for sure she's not involved in the vanishing, especially as the pilot progresses...), there are several loose ends and characters, who you just can't put on the bad or good side so far. After a few bodies here and there, everybody start to see that it won't be a quick retrieval of the senator's wife.

Keep an eye on it, decide for yourself.

this show started off with such promise. the first half of the episodes were interesting and captivating. there was the kidnapping. then there was the back story of the main character relating to the death of the child of the last kidnapping that he handled. then there was the secret society ala da vinci code. it was interesting to watch and follow. then they go and kill off the lead character. it all went to hell in a hand basket after that. the last show sucked too. probably because it was slapped together at the last minute when the show got canceled. how disappointing. there were so many interesting plot lines but such poor execution.

Were parts of this film made in Old San Juan? My husband and I stayed at the Gallery Inn, and it looks just like this hotel in the movie. It was complete with the parrots, statues, etc. It is owned by an artist named Jan. There is a courtyard at the Gallery Inn that looks just like the one viewed in the movie. Please let me know if this location was used. I also noticed that the cobblestone streets that were beside the hotel looked very similar. The streets were steep, and lined with colorful houses. We stayed in a room that was under the balcony, and it was exquisite. There was a sitting room off the bedroom, with arched windows, books, a table and couch, and exquisite antiques and art work. It opened onto the balcony, which had a breathtaking view. Above our balcony was the observation deck, which overlooked the city and docked cruise ships dotting the landscape. Gorgeous!

I really and truly love this show. It's a great mystery, crime, and thriller television program. The plot is so gripping, and every episode I always think, "Why NOW? Why did they HAVE to end it NOW?". Really annoying, but it makes the show that much more interesting to have a good cliff-hanger.

I like how it combines elements of crime shows like CSI with all the detective work, and the FBI. There's a lot of drama as well. Each episode, more history is revealed about the main characters to keep you guessing who's the culprit, who's innocent, and who's an accomplice. I honestly have no idea how anyone is involved with the case. And I'm an avid watcher. That's good though.

I definitely recommend it, though it might be hard to understand if you've missed the first seven episodes.
