Konterr Brilliant and touching

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

kendradupreez I'll be honest and say watched the first episode purely out of curiosity as to what had become of my favorite Beverly's Hills fella! This series has really grown on me, and whilst there's the stereoptypically him/her banter I am thoroughly enjoying a show that has interesting plot lines, well rounded characters and is not too much like 'hard work'

bkoganbing Jason Priestley who will forever be identified with Beverly Hills 90210 as all American Brandon Walsh for several seasons has changed his famous zip code to a native Canadian postal code. His name certainly guarantees a bit of box office attraction for his new Canadian series Private Eyes. I did a bit of a double take when I saw he was born in 1969 making him as I write this 49 years old. Granted he was no teen when he was playing one, but I have to say he looks pretty good for his age. We should all age so well.Priestley whom I remember on a long ago interview said he was a hockey player as a kid plays an ex-hockey player and is now trying to reinvent himself as a private detective. He works for Cindy Simpson who took over her dad's detective agency and he's come in as an operative.The series has a Remington Steele like quality to it with the chemistry between Priestley and Simpson. Hopefully it will have as long a run as Remington Steele did.

graytardis I'm a Castle fan,a Lucifer fan, a Moonlighting fan, a Rockford Files etc.etc.etc. Yes they are light comedy, drama shows, but who wants nothing but hard Drama or tear jerking romance all the time? The above mentioned are all great shows. Just mentioning them brings up memories of enjoying them. This is how I want to remember Private Eyes. It is fun and has potential as long as the fans don't expect great episodes every time, that is not possible. I hope it continues for years.

stemal-1 I'm not jumping on the 'Castle-lite' bandwagon. Had IMDb not killed the forums, you'd see that I started it after episode 1 of season 1 screened.In fact Private Eyes makes Castle look like a gritty police procedural, and without the charm of Nathan Fillion to help it along. I had it down as a cert to be cancelled after one season.But it wasn't, and I'm happy about that. It was and still is an entertaining and undemanding watch. It knows its place and that it will get a loyal audience.A word of caution to the team behind the show. Learn from Castle. The two leads must never get together.
