Do No Harm,

| I tried to like it, watched most of a season, but couldn’t get into it. Too many cop things that made me cringe. I can suspend belief but only to a point.
Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.
Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard.

In general, I don't watch cop shows for that reason, and that Im kinda sick of watching it "live and in person" for 8 1/2 hours a day... I liked it mostly for the background (and the blonde). And eventually, that's the area I'm looking at retiring in... It was kinda getting to the point of there were more murders there than here.

Let's be careful

| SFers, you gotta READ 'em, not watch 'em. The stories are sooo much fuller, and the characters soo much more interesting. |

| I've finished them all. I've tried not to binge when I watched them especially in Season 5 just to make it last longer. It's hard not to just keep on keppin' on but I try to limit binge watching to no more than three but try for two.  |

The next book is due out Set 4, 2018, a week away! The books are a lot different, the story line is intense. _  _______________________________ "Nature scares me" a quote by my friend Bob after a rough day at sea. |

How do the books age Walt? What I have read he starts out as a Vietnam vet, so, by now he would be at least pushing 70? I remember reading the John McDonald's "Travis McGee" series, he started out a Koran war vet, but as the books progressed he subtly shifted him into Vietnam to keep him younger. |

We are just starting this. That was the biggest negative, otherwise, it seemed like it could be good. Still going to give it a try but it's definitely not NCIS when it comes to processing things - not that it was perfect. |

| The wife and I have been binging this show. In the middle of season 4. Enjoyed it so far.
I did catch an oopsie, though. While watching the episode with the veteran drug thieves, I just happened to get up and walk by the TV to get something. The scene where the woman is pointing her gun at Walt. I immediately spotted the lack of hole in the gun barrel. Not a big deal. Just found it amusing. |

I'm not really into "cop" shows, because I see it live and in person. However, I enjoyed this one mostly because of the location. I fell in love with Wyoming years ago, and hopefully when I retire from this shithole, Wyoming is where I'd like to settle.
I don't know, go be a forest ranger or something...
The only thing that turned me off about the show was that now I'm thinking that there's more murders in Absoroka Co. than in Chicago...
The good news is that at 63 episodes vs 264, fictional Absoroka county is still safer than Cabot Cove...  |
