Despite her very high IQ, excellent memory, and extensive arcane knowledge, Morgan makes a number of basic legal mistakes that anyone who has ever watched a legal show on television knows not to make. In the first episode, for example, she obtains a document from a locked safe in the suspect-victim’s law office that would never be admissible in court—evidence obtained illegally. Nor could it be used to obtain other evidence—a violation of the legal doctrine of “fruit of the poisonous tree.” In episode 2, she has to be reminded to wear gloves before handling evidence at the crime scene, and in episode 3, she removes all documented evidence from the police station, completely breaking the chain of custody and making everything she took inadmissible in court.
I’m a big fan of any series/film that features someone who has a unique ability hidden behind a personality that just doesn’t fit. The main character has exactly that. Her life seems a bit confusing, she’s all over the place, but…
she’s crazy smart and notices details that other experienced people don’t. I was already a fan of Kaitlin, so it’s no wonder I love her here too. I like that each episode solves the case.
I’m tired of a show that drags on for an entire season or several. Just give me a solid story and a conclusion in under an hour! Well paced, has some funny lines, and is generally enjoyable to watch.
I’m looking forward to the additional episodes. I just hope they don’t cancel it after one season like everyone does these days.
