That's not helping the show's cause.

Reviews I have read so far are mixed.

Either way, it is neat what they are doing with the title sequence.

I kind of liked it. After seeing the warm reception it got from most people, I went in with low expectations, but it wasn't half bad. Silly in parts, downright laughable in others, but if you don't think about it too much and just turn your brain off and watch it, it seems like it could be an entertaining hour of TV. The large amount of naked women surely didn't hurt matters either.

B- will watch again.

picked up for a second season

I'm still kind of liking this. It's absolutely absurd, and could never happen in a billion years, but it's still mindless entertainment.

1/31/2013 7:33:56 PM

Yeah that last episode was fun.

1/31/2013 8:18:50 PM

I've liked it so far. It's a good show, not meant to be taken too seriously.

1/31/2013 9:13:58 PM

I like how everybody that likes it has to qualify it somehow.

"It's not like I think it's quality tv or anything but..."

This show, like Strikeback has a lot more story then you would expect. Another solid episode.

2/2/2013 10:13:15 AM

Yup, another good episode, a little predictable towards the end.

2/2/2013 9:04:50 PM

Loving this show, when I grow up I want to be just like bad ass motherfuckin sheriff Lucas Hoobs

Great episode, crazy fight scene with the albino,

2/17/2013 12:08:52 PM

Season finale last night had so many moments. Great first season with a ton of potential for the next. Don't let Alan Balls name throw you off. Ridiculous action, brutal fight scenes, fast paced story and a few intriguing characters. Highly recommend you watch this.

Oh and for anyone watching who didn't know.. There is a scene after the credits in every episode. Some really minor character moments but a few have been important.

^Haha I just finished watching the last episode and had no idea there were scenes after the credits.

Bumpin for season 2

1/10/2014 8:56:15 PM

Season finale was tonight. It was amazing.

3/15/2014 12:07:56 AM

This season was pretty good. If you can ignor the obvious plot flaws and just sit back and enjoy the action, this is a very enjoyable show. Also, they got very ambitious with scene cutting and flashback cuts that was interesting. I hope it comes back for another season.

3/16/2014 3:13:25 PM

They have already started filming.

3/16/2014 6:28:34 PM

Last episode was ridiculous. More people need to be watching this show.

1/27/2015 11:04:37 AM

i didn't enjoy the first couple episodes, does it pick up?

1/31/2015 7:47:56 PM

Oh god yes. The end of season 1, then everything in season 2 is ridiculous.

Don't expect high class television from it, but it is great action with a fast paced storyline and decent acting.

1/31/2015 7:53:18 PM

Yeah, this is definitely a "turn your brain off and enjoy it" type of show. I mainly watch it for the fight scenes.
