TV SHOW: "Last Resort" (Whew!)

(***Warning***: Since this blog often contains reviews, what I'm about to say may seem bizarre but, DON'T READ OR RESEARCH ANYTHING ABOUT  "LAST RESORT"  BEFORE YOU SEE IT!) it's okay to read this though

I just watched a pilot episode of a brand new TV show called, "Last Resort". I had heard nothing about it prior to seeing it. No promos ahead of time. The only reason I caught it at all was because it came right after the new show, "Elementary" (which did have lots of promos ahead of time).

"Elementary" was okay. It's a re-telling of the Sherlock Holmes mystery genre.  I was just getting up to go to the wash room when "Last Resort" started. Then I was in trouble because I had to "hold it" through the entire hour it was on. I was so afraid of missing one second of Last Resort that I didn't even leave during the commercials.

It was a thrilling hour and I was totally engrossed in the show from the first minute to the last and I cannot wait to watch it again. I don't mean what another episode, I mean watch THE SAME episode again.

I have been actively watching TV with great interest since I was 6 years old. For those of you without your calculator , that is 39 years of TV watching. New seasons, new shows, the TV Guide Fall Season specials, thousands of hours of pilot episodes over my almost 4 decades of new TV shows. So when I tell you that this TV SHOW MUST be watched and that it is probably the best TV pilot I've seen in a decade, it's advice you should take seriously.

Do yourself a favor and watch "Last Resort". It should be broadcast a couple more times in the next day or so. Check your local listings (as they say).

 I won't critique it right now because I don't want to give away any part of it. As I said in the warning at the top of this blog post, don't learn anything about it before you see it. And especially, don't read any reviews about it before you've seen it. Form your own opinion.  I want you to enjoy discovering it for yourself. All of it! But I know it's appeal with cross generations, races, economical strati, as well as many different tastes and attitudes.

Heed what I say and go watch "Last Resort". You can thank me for it later! And by the way, go pee before the show starts. You'll thank me later for that too!

Watch it; enjoy yourself; then come right back here.  I'll review it later, after everyone has had a chance to see it. Then we'll discuss it. I'll be dying to hear what you think about it. So hurry. 
Love  L-L
