Your Honor

Unfortunately, "Your Honor" was extremely disappointing for me... I watched the show because I saw an interview by Bryan Cranston where he was talking about the show and I thought it sounded quite interesting.

The premise of the series is indeed incredibly exciting and with better authors one could certainly have created a nerve-wracking and impressive series, but the authors really mess everything up here.

The series has everything else - good actors, nice sets, good camera shots, etc.

But when it comes to the whole story - the most important part of a series - it doesn't convince me at all... There are so many scenes that just don't make sense and not just when you analyze them, but when you think about them at all - which the writers apparently just didn't do.

The writing of this series is honestly one of the worst I've ever seen in a series. All the characters are completely dumb just so the secret doesn't unfold.

The points are really only for the other aspects mentioned (acting, camera, set, etc.)

Good story, if not a little far fetched, great acting by Bryan Cranston, I loved the New Orleans setting. The pacing was good too, never seemed to drag too much. Some of the story I didn't agree with, I thought the police corruption was too blatant and not believable, the crime family wasn't very convincing and the kid when he danced was weird lol. Overall a decent show though.

A sign of a good show is when you want to keep playing the next episode and you sneak bits in on the phone whoever the opportunity arises. All the people complaining about son don't get it. Is he an annoying dweeb? Absolutely. But that's the intention - it requires Cranston in his role to have to take on all the thinking and all the doing, to keep them both safe. If the son was a well put together, articulate, athletic, affable character, it wouldn't have near the same impact. It adds to the desperation and frustration of Cranston trying with all his will to stay one step ahead of the bad guys.

A classic story of how the privileged and powerful will go to great lengths to protect their own, even if they did something as horrible as what this stupid kid did.

Brilliant acting by the kid who played Kofi. Cranston was Cranston, the mob wife kinda scared me but Adam ruined the show for me. I couldn't wait for him to go down.
