I can't believe Juliette Lewis agreed to do season 2.


That script was an absolute disaster. It was well casted with former cast members from Lost and the shield, but no actor could have saved season 2. I'm guessing she got paid a good chunk. Everyone's got to pay the bills huh. Kind of a waste of talent to watch a 2 time oscar nominee in such a disastrous season.

DO you mean season 3?

Season 2 was not great like season 1 but it was decent.

Don't know anything about Lost or the Shield, never seen them.



Relax, all right? My old man is a TV repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it!

Disagree, I thought season 2 was a complete joke. Only reason I finished it is because I loved the first season, and I like Juliette Lewis, and other cast members. The ending and motive was just a joke.

Yep, especially in contrast with her role in the first season, which wasn't written brilliantly either, but at least gave her opportunity to create a full character. Instead she wasn't allowed to do anything but looking sour for the whole season.
Her character was unreasonably confident: the progress in that case was purely accidental and up until the end she did not have a clue who the murderer was, while leaving a trail of errors and misjudgements. Including the one not to make sure where everyone was at the time of the murder, something Columbo would have asked in the first scene. That might be why he could solve his cases within less than 90 minutes where Lewis' incomptetent character needed the whole season to barely get over the finish line.
