The show opens with a big sweeping shot of Miami, which sets the stage for the series. Charlie gives his Angel's orders to rescue a 16 year old kidnap victim. The girls get the girl before the end of he teaser. Cut to, Gloria, the Spanish Angel is blown up in her car. Then she's replaced by her loose cannon best friend, who has to avenge Gloria's death and take down a rich Miami child trafficker. The girls wrap up the case and party on a yacht to welcome their new addition.
This is one that I was really rooting for, and was hoping for something amazing. But sadly, it just did not deliver. The script begs for something more in every twist and turn of the story. And overall, this stinker is covered with on the nose dialog, and situations. The girls have zero emotion about their "sister" who is murdered in the teaser, and lacks tension.
In an effort to end on a positive note... the casting is great!
Just stumbled upon your blog. An executive producer friend of mine mentioned in our first meeting that its all about where the money comes from and where it goes. I came out of that meeting refusing to believe him, but soon learnt that that is the truth. No wonder so many sequels get made, and so many 70s TV serials are remade into present day feature films, and ofcourse, stuff that really isn't that great often sees the greenlight!
ReplyDeleteIn the above context, viewing your recent blog posts on various TV pilots, I couldn't resist a comment. I hope I have not intruded on your blog!
