WOW, Luc Besson, you've done it again, but this time you have left me hanging. So I know that there will be a SEASON 2, because you can't just leave me waiting around for the next bomb to drop!!!I have enjoyed this series and am looking forward to you continuing to put some action words to the page for SEASON 2.

The main lead in this show has to be the one of the most pathetic individuals I have seen in recent history.Incredibly weak character. Her reasons for being so conflicted are weak, she is supposedly a cop, whose answer to significant fractions of her problems are to physically strike out and hit somebody or something.The male lead? WHat can I say. Just suspend disbelief, and enjoy. At least he doesn't try to be anything more than he is.Plots? Presumably something vaguely resembling at least a one- sentence summary passed by the desk of a writer at some point, but that's pretty much it. These cops have people get shot in front of them, leave the dying person in the street and head off after the bad guy. IN a taxi.I wanted to like it, and on the off-chance that perhaps it was a slow starter, I've managed to at least have it playing in the background for 12 episodes as filler, and so far, it's 12 episodes of time I could've devoted to something else. So allow me the privilege of serving you, by heartily encouraging you to devote your finite and precious TV viewing-time to something else.

I realise that the networks like to test things out, and that many, many pilots get made each year... My question is, out of all the shows you piloted, what made you pick this one to buy episodes?Action, comedy, crime... These are the genre tags. And sure, we have action, lots and lots of action, a lot of it seemingly contrived for Jacky Ido's character to drive his super souped-up taxi and catch the bad guy.Comedy boils down to hideously awkward situations where people talk about sex. The situational comedy (I could tell the points where I was apparently supposed to laugh, I just failed to get started) just wasn't funny.Crime. Now here we get to the deliberately unfunny and really quite depressing part of the program. The juxtaposition of unfunny sex jokes versus some quite brutal crime was uneasy to say the least. Mob hits on characters versus Cat's mother oversharing her planned dirty weekend with Cat's Captain... far from funny, creepy and really inappropriate.Desperately uneven pacing, a lead female character who is miserable, bad-tempered and aggressive 99% of the time, split from FBI husband, French taxi driver who's a brilliant driver because he was ONCE (one time only) a getaway driver for a bank robbery, a best friend who turns out to be evil kingpin... there are so many sins in this writing I am at a complete loss where to start.Eleven out of twelve episodes follow this lumpy formula, but then we have the twelfth episode where the entire feel, writing, characterisation changes. I think the final episode is the biggest sin of all. It crams so much into it's 43 minute run time, it's unbelievable. And every single character is on a crash course to oblivion. There are literally so many threads crammed into each minute it becomes a joke.A completely lost opportunity, I love Besson's work, have done for years, and if this was supposed to be based upon one of his films the show developer and script writers have clearly misunderstood everything. A shame, because I wanted to enjoy this, and I found myself despising it the further in I got.

Yes the show is cheesy, the plots are paper thin, the acting is far from grate, and the script is full of clichés.And still its fun to watch, its sorta bad like the old A-team, only this is for grown ups you know noting is even a tiny bit realistic, and still you watch what more BS they can think to get away with.Because how can anything be more sleazy then with dialog like this: Dr. Monica Pena: Come Cat the Captain is shot, he wants to talk to you. - Detective Caitlyn: How bad is he hot Monica??? - Captain: Hey cat i want you to your mother something if i die. - Detective Caitlyn: Your not gone die. - Captain: Shut up and listen, If i die i want you to tell your mother, that i had the best sex ever with her. - Detective Caitlyn: Shut up i don't wane hear this! - Captain: And tell hear i am sorry i came prematurely sometimes.Like WTF! o_0 LOL For me a fun B production, who says something real bad, cant be fun. ^_^ Its a series you like or hate, but for me a 7 out of 10, for first time entertainment value, tho spare me any of the re-runs. ;-)
