    Enjoying this show
    I am enjoying this show. It is good TV and finally something to watch on a Saturday night. Interesting plot, interesting and complex characters, and great intrigue. Hopefully it won't be a one season and done. It is tough to become interested in a good program to then see it end after one or two seasons. Perhaps viewers will give it better marks once the overall plot and the characters develop throughout the season. I am looking forward to see how Beaumont handles the gal who joined the team for a personal motive. I love the CBS line up and this show is a great addition.. I would like to see a little more character development without distracting from the great ransom/abduction story lines. Episode 4 was a step in that direction and the best episode yet. Can't wait to see more.
