I was so upset with him leaving NCIS, but then a few months later I started seeing previews on TV about Michael Weatherly in Bull. My mouth dropped I was still disappointed about him leaving my top show for this but I can't be selfish. So I saw the first episode and loved it. I just went and purchased the whole season....come on it's Michael Weatherly....lol, keep up the good work.

The show started off just fine. It was good, in fact. Each of the episodes has dealt with a different type of legal case, and are all, if you watch any particular episode, quite good. The problem is that every episode seems to be the same. They show the same mock jury selection, etc, each and every time and explain it all over again. There is really no character development, and the show lacks a crucial element for continued success: a Red John. So the show becomes more boring the longer you watch it, which is the opposite of what should happen. Sorry, Dr. Phil.

I truly enjoy Michael taking the lead on this show. Great character development and with the addition of the sultry Eliza Dushku, I'm looking forward to how this plays out. I'm concerned with each episode becoming predictable and boring. I truly hope there are more interesting plots on the way.
