Lie To Me*

*and tell me this show has been canceled

Whether it’s the lame, hackneyed writing, painfully forced pop culture references or the predictable, predictable plots – this show is the bane of television.

As advertised, this is a blog that promotes positivity. And the most positive thing that could ever happen to television is for the remaining tapes to be mysteriously lost in a tire fire or shot into the Sun.

Believe me, if you haven’t watched this show, don’t. Research suggests Lie To Me’s characters are archetypes of other TV drama archetypes. (And this is coming from a guy who watches Bones.)

Oh, yes. A twist! He has to work with his ex-wife! And what do you know, she’s got him a little on edge, but that hot cougar still has some feelings for our supergenius hero, doesn’t she? Their spunky daughter sure thinks so.

But goddamn it, it’s a good cast, Led by Tom Roth and Kelli Williams, so you might actually get through an episode. If only to see a group of talented professionals make miraculous attempts to save truly horrific material.
