I really don't understand the low ratings and the very harsh words about the series. I don't understand what you guys expected. Makes me wonder if there are other intentions behind those ratings. The show is very well shot, with great cinematography, direction, music & stylistic choices based in D. C. . Alex Cross' depth as character is immediately shown as well as his flows just like any other human being. He tries to navigate through his wife's death while dealing with grief, a serial killer case and someone stalking his family. The supporting cast does a great job aswell and I like how we can watch 2 stories at the same time. There are moments where you don't know where the story is going and twists and turns you'd never expect. Is it something that hasn't been done before? No, but it is done well most of the times. Now there are some plot holes where you kinda question things but they're not big enough to disturb you from watching the show. The acting is superb and Aldis is stealing the show. If I have to recommend one thing and the producers read this, next season focus a little bit more on his forensic psychology background. We're not just talking about a detective who has taken some profiling lessons, we're talking about a guy with a PhD at psychology, a doctor of forensic psychology. Don't reduce this trait to the cute "I know how killers think" thing that has been done again and again. Make psychological assessments, diagnose, advocate for victims or prisoners, you know things that forensic psychologists do.
