Will Trent: Agente Especial

At this point the show is cute I'm enjoying it. I have to remind myself that books are for book readers and TV shows are for those who watch... not necessarily the same

The main similarity between this and the books are the names of the characters. I'm only in the 1st episode and we're just getting to know all about everyone. It's a little confusing and sometimes hard to reconcile, What I see and what I already feel like I know about the characters. The author has already signed off on all of this so I will trust her judgment and keep watching. I look forward to seeing how these things turn out and the character development. .

The pilot episode was decent. As for just staring the will Trent series in the books I find it hard with adaptations. Will Trent should be 6 3 and large strong physical presence. The lead is good pick as I find he is mimicking the character well so far. As for Amanda the choice was perfect. When pictured in the novels I always saw a strong black female presence it is probably one of the best adaptations I have seen done. Now with faith that one is hard to see and deal with. The character is to me not appealing. This one I'm hoping it will improve but time will tell. If you read the books at first there is some hesitation towards this tv adaptation. If your just learning of this show it is appealing and something we have seen before but I have hopes it will lead to more.

Knowing Karin slaughter is the executive producer I'm sure she blessed all this current PC adaptations so I put my trust in her views as to where this will lead.

Can't wait for the next episode!!!

Great show. Most of the actors look nothing like the characters from the books, but their performances make this irrelevant. The chemistry is near-perfect and there are moments that happen that aren't in the books that add to the overall legend that are the Karin Slaughter world.

Sonja Sohn stands out for me. Her performance is like she jumped straight from the pages of the books.

Ramon Rodriguez is far shorter than Will is in the book but like Tom Cruise in the first Jack Reacher movie, he brings the character to life.

This is live action fan fiction, like all books to film, and it's worth the watch.

Definitely recommend the show, but I highly recommend Karin's books. Start with the Grant County series, then the Will Trent and then devour her standalone novels.

There's a reason she's in my top 5 author list.

I've generally given up on network TV shows due to their mostly low rent writing and production values. I assumed Will Trent would be a typical cop procedural, since I'm not familiar with the books. What I found was a show that is quirky, humorous, with decent action and generally well written screenplay, with a cast of very likable actors and characters. The show creators have some good pedigree, as well.

The two part premiere was excellent. The pilot episode was a little chaotic but only very briefly, as anyone would expect from a new show. By the second, it felt smooth and the pacing is great. Erika Christensen, whom I haven't seen on screen in a long time, is surprisingly good here. And maybe Sonja Sohn reminds me of The Wire, but she's like an old shoe that fits well on a cop show like this.

Only time will tell if they can keep it interesting and stay with the source material, but this has been entertaining so far.

I cannot get enough of this show! I love the characters, the dialogue, the humor and I especially love that the characters are so beautifully, and interestingly flawed! All the feels when watching this, because you can identify with the characters on the show!

It's smart, funny, touching, and even suspenseful at brief moments. The music alone in certain scenes is its own character in the show.

There are very few TV shows that leave you wanting so much more. I hope it never loses it's momentum and that special something that continuously draws you in. Hate having to wait a week for the next episode, but I e realized that it is so worth it!
