Missing: The Complete First Season



A really good show....Too bad there will be NO SEASON 2.
I came across this show on ABC, at the very beginning of it's 1st episode. It sucked me in, and became a "must watch" show for my wife and I. Excellently written, and keeps you thinking and guessing "What's going to happen next?" Good acting, good storyline, and filmed in some cool locations. After tomorrow's final episode of Season 1, it looks like there will NOT be a Season 2 (so that I've read). It's too bad, and considering some of the shows that have been renewed, ABC should be ashamed of themselves for not renewing Missing! I give ABC, ZERO STARS for not renewing it.

Ashley Judd strikes again
Remember the good ole days, sitting on the couch watching "Double Jeopardy", "Kiss the Girls" and even "High Crimes" only to wonder several years later, "Where has Ashley gone?" After her so-called "retirement" from making movies (I put it in quotes because that's what she calls it), a humanitarian mission that leads her to 13 countries, and a book that tells us all what she's been up to out of the spotlight, Ashley Judd comes back with a bang in ABC's "Missing". While we're not used to seeing her on the smaller screen, I love the fact that we get a new episode each and every week that features my favorite actress. Each episode shocks me and inspires me. Everytime the show ends, I have an outburst of "WHAT?! What happens next?!?!" The show is thrilling, fast-paced, and always leaves me wanting more. The cast has been superb and while Judd is the biggest name in the credits, don't think you won't be pulled in by the other characters as well. Adriano Giannini is excellent as Giancarlo...

Fun and fast paced
Though I only started watching this show because I was missing Sean Bean on Game of Thrones, I got rather sucked in! The filming locations all over Europe add a definite something special, and the pace is very quick which makes it somehow more involving. I like the actors, though I find Ashley Judd to be a bit stiff. I just read that the series was cancelled, which is disappointing, but it was still a fun ride worth watching if you like suspense series.
