Weak writers ruining a great character


On Good Wife and Fight, Elsbeth was a terrific character who won cases by using her brilliance and ability to come up with unique solutions to tough cases others couldn’t find.

That’s not so in this series. Here she solves the same generic, run-of-the-mill, Murder She Wrote type simple crimes other amateur detectives have been solving on TV for years.

And they’re so easy to solve, anyone could do it, except, of course, the actual trained detectives who look like idiots as they miss obvious clues every step of the way.

I’m shocked and disappointed that the same creators who produced Good Wife/Fight and Evil green light such amateurish boring scripts.
