Good news, the above post about
the 9 sounds right, and I like this
show and have posted on it frequently

swing back to the middle here and
say I think the writing needs to
improve. I am not a script writer,
but these brief scenes and jumping
around storylines is not the ticket
here. A scrap thown here and there
to each character and storyline will
not help us get to know or care about
these people. JMO.

Cane, like a few other shows, need to start something actully happen instead of the never ending set up.

I agree the may be trying to get too many story lines going at once. Need a little more action.

I kind of agree as well. Even if they don't cut the number of storylines, the could have longer scenes for each individual storyline rather than 30 seconds here, 30 seconds there.

I tend to agree with the three of you, except that for me it actually has led me to give up on the show.

I'm open to the idea of a character study that isn't particularly "plotty," but it better be a damn good character study. The only show on TV that's pulling that off for me right now is Mad Men on AMC. The characters I'm seeing on Cane aren't particularly interesting or original, despite an incredibly capable cast.
