The Pilot is 75 minutes

Fist of Doom

I'll give it a shot since it's on USA, but this doesn't look very good.

Red Dog

Sarah Shahi. One of the hottest women I've ever seen.

Patman

Yes, she is.

wetsprockets

The previews for this don't look all that interesting, but I'll give it a chance because of Shahi.

Anubis2005X

I set the DVR cause she looks hot and USA shows are usually pretty decent. So, we'll see. The marketing worked on this one, ha...

I hope they get rid of the Wizard of Oz ringtones.

Trucco looks like he has bird's nest on his head and Ken Howard looks terrible.

Liked it Otherwise.

Geofferson

I caught it by chance last night (didn't plan on watching). Wasn't bad...

RocShemp

I enjoyed this quite a bit. I wasn't sure at first but it shaped up quite nicely.

Oh and, Sarah Shahi. I missed her when Life was cancelled. Heck, I miss Life altogether.

DJariya

I liked it also.

1st of all, Sarah Shahi is freaking gorgeous. Really sexy professional outfits and she lights up all her scenes.

But, eye candy factor aside and I thought it was a fun light hearted drama with a different take on the legal genre. I'm not too familiar with Legal mediators, but the show made it interesting. They had some cool guest stars like Ken Howard and McRaney. I think it will be fun to see Kate butt heads with her apparent gold digger step mother.

I'm not sure if there is any significance to the Wizard of Oz ringtones. The previews didn't really seem that interesting because I think this is a tough show to sell to USA's audience especially when she have characters like Michael Weston, Hank and Mary Shannon as your predecessors.

Also, I loved that they shot the Pilot in San Francisco. Beautiful scenics.

I'm in for the next 9 weeks.

whotony

She likes the ring tones.

Has one from the movie for everyone she knows.

I didn't think the Mother in law was a gold digger. Looks like she is running the company.

Ropes Pierre

Her ass is all the proof i need to believe in god.

As to the show, i will have to watch it next time with the sound on.

Red Dog

Yep. That skirt she was running around in for most of the episode showed it off perfectly. Love the high heels too. The woman is insanely hot - that's that Iranian blood of hers. The problem with Life is that they wasted her beauty. That won't happen with this show.

The Wizard of Oz ring tones are annoying, but a fun show. Taking a different approach to the law is something new.

The latter 2 aren't much of a bar to hurdle.

Fist of Doom

I thought this was a mixed bag.

The store robbery scene was cringeworthy, and the whole marriage proposal lawsuit plot was lame. Some of the guest actors were lousy.

On the plus side, I think they did a credible job setting Kate up as a great mediator, and I liked a lot of the humor. The look of the show is nice.

I never heard of Sarah Shahi before this, but Wowza! I hope they keep dressing her like this, because she looked hot as hell.

DJariya

She was previously on the NBC show Life that lasted 2 seasons. But, her appearance on this show and Life are like night and day.

flippo

I don't think the whole show was shot in SF since I notice when they were in the office and you can see RBC bank, TD bank, BMO and Scotia Bank logo in the background - Canadian Banks logo. Maybe in Toronto ???

Overall if pretty light show, me and my wife like it so we are following the show.

DJariya

Yeah I figured that some of the show may have been filmed in Canada because of cost (Interior shots as you mentioned) At least they managed to shoot alot of exteriors in SF.

Count Dooku

They need to start to doing episodes where Sarah Shahi has to go mediate undercover at massage parlors and beauty contests... or as a "lady of the night" --like they used to do all the time on Charlie's Angels.

xfusejc

Just watch her on The L Word and you'll get far more than you requested above

In it for the season. Fun show.

Cory02

Thought the episode was decent overall so I added a season pass.

Anubis2005X

Was this any good? I recorded the pilot, but don't know if I feel like getting into any new shows at the moment. Not enough time in the day...

DJariya

Uhhh there is 21 other comments at the top that you could glance at ^^

If you don't have time, then don't force yourself. But, if you like USA's type of shows, then IMO it was a good start. It's light and fun with a ridiculously hot lead.

davidh777

Somewhat surprised that the wife liked the pilot. Sounds like there will be more Sarah Shahi in my future.

macnorton

I watched this the other day and this is one of those shows that I don't hate, but I don't exactly like either. Sarah Shahi is a great lead for the show () and they seem to have her character down...but all the other plot points for me were meh.
