I'm torn. It just isn't the original, and that makes me sad. No one can replace Timothy Hutton, but I like Noah Wylie as an addition to the team; I just wish Timothy was still part of it too. I still love Beth Riesgraf, Gina Bellman, Christian Kane and Aldis Hodge and although they seem a little older they're still the team I love; and the first two episodes were pretty true to the original. The third episode however, without Aldis Hodge, was missing an integral part of what makes the show work. So far, I'm just not feeling Aleyse Shannon as the new team member. She's too scattered and all over the place and she doesn't really seem to fit in; maybe she's just too young. I'll keep watching, and I hope they continue it , and maybe it will get smoother as time goes on. I may have to go back and re-watch some of the originals to make me feel better.
EDIT: It's getting worse. I'm on episode 5, where Eliot and Harry are non-existent. Parker is beginning to sound like an airhead, which she isn't. Sophie seems kind of unsure of herself, which she isn't. Breanna, on the other hand, is super smart and knows everything and is running things and seems to be the center of the show. And talk about overacting; she constantly opens her eyes really wide and I keep expecting them to pop out of her head. When she talks she over emphasizes words and phrases that make no sense. There's way too much constant banter, where Breanna is supposed to be so witty, but she isn't. I really dislike her character and she has ruined what could have been a great show. It's a shame.
