Dirt

Something&apos;s Missing...

I wasn&apos;t planning on watching this show. Don&apos;t get me wrong, I like Courteney Cox, but it just didn&apos;t feel like my type of show, based on the previews. However, after coming down with the flu, I was left to a few sick days and I happened across the pilot. First the good, it drew me in. I was just flipping through and it caught me and made me want to watch. It was dark, it was edgy, it felt different from most other things on television. However, it also felt like either something was missing from the show or that I was the kid at the far end of the table left out of the joke. I liked the characters, quite a bit more than I probably should have, but something was not right with the story. I&apos;m not sure whether it was the intentional choppiness to try and represent the story of the schizophrenic photographer, or the fact that it bounced back and forth too much between story lines.

I don&apos;t think I&apos;m going to give up on this show. But, for it to stick, it needs a little bit of re-working and making the show something more than simply edgy.
