Chance

I have a soft spot for this junkier TV VERTIGO/MARNIE mash with Laurie as a neuropsychiatrist who has passed some antisociability onto his daughter, which he deals with while obsessing over multiple-personality Gretchen Mol, training with his traumatized street samurai buddy, and abusing his position to engage in protracted power games with other dangerous men. Clarke Peters is a gay antique dealer. Some good turns, even Real Stuff about knowing yrself and trying to live well anyway. Peters out.

At first you think this is just another doctor show for Hugh Laurie to relive his House days, but then the show takes it in a very different direction, basically becoming a show about a vigilante. Pretty interesting show and I like the actors involved.

Season 1: 60

It could be an interesting thriller if the Chance was more intelligent and didn't make a stupid decision every 5 minutes. The storyline with D is very interesting...Ethan Duplee as D, a supporting character, is more intelligent and more interesting than the main character. D is the only reason i survived through half of the first season before giving up. Chance wants to do something, but then asks the stupidest questions every second and wants to change his mind. Worse than a child.

Pilot - good production, but it seems like it is trying way too hard to be dark. It feels unnatural and odd.
