Anyone else watching this show? It really is growing on me and Rainn Wilson is great in the title role. Great supporting cast including Dennis Haysbert. Any show that is selling itself with this kind of a promotion can't be all bad:

I've recorded the show since the beginning but haven't found the time to start watching, but it looks like my kind of show. And you're right, with that kind of promo, it's got to at least be a little bit good!

Same here. I have watched every episode, and it's entertaining. Not a groundbreaking show by any means, and the mysteries aren't all that complex, but the characters and personal interaction are what keep me coming back.

I watched one episode and that was enough. It's just "House M.D." where the lead is a detective instead of a doctor.

Perhaps, but you say that like its a bad thing.

This week's episode was the best one yet.

I wasn't a regular viewer of "House" so that comparison doesn't really matter to me.


I've watched all of "Backstrom" so far. I almost gave it up after the first episode but decided to give it another chance. I can't say it's my favorite but it is good enough to keep me coming back. It's been getting better week by week.


And yes, this week's episode was the best yet.

I'm four episodes in and am really enjoying the show. Hoping the ratings are good and we get a renewal.

Pretty much my feelings as well. Unfortunately, it is official, if has been canceled.

I guess that explains why the last show of the season ended the way it did.
