The show started off just fine. It was good, in fact. Each of the episodes has dealt with a different type of legal case, and are all, if you watch any particular episode, quite good. The problem is that every episode seems to be the same. They show the same mock jury selection, etc, each and every time and explain it all over again. There is really no character development, and the show lacks a crucial element for continued success: a Red John. So the show becomes more boring the longer you watch it, which is the opposite of what should happen. Sorry, Dr. Phil.

I truly enjoy Michael taking the lead on this show. Great character development and with the addition of the sultry Eliza Dushku, I'm looking forward to how this plays out. I'm concerned with each episode becoming predictable and boring. I truly hope there are more interesting plots on the way.

As Ken R. previously stated in his review, these episodes are great TV Drama, the writing is typical CBS-quality, nothing showy, lots of snippy jokes and funny moments, but there's no serial-content. By "Serial", I mean a long running story arch that keeps viewers hooked and interested from one episode to the next. As Ken said, you can literally watch any of the first 9 episodes in any order and you won't miss a thing... Ken mentioned adding a "Red John", and while I also watched The Mentalist and found the overarching storylines intriguing, I don't really see an opportunity for such a character in Bull. To me, this show has so far been a viable alternative to NCIS and other CBS shows that have jumped the shark, but it's nowhere near the level of drama and intrigue as shows on HBO, Amazon, or Netflix. I truely believe the internet is the future of TV Drama. --------------------------------------------------- TLDR: Great show, weak character development, good writing, awesome casting, don't expect too much.
