I assumed this was made in the same vein as Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, I didn't realize it was an absolutely terrible knockoff. Literally the same movie, but with female actors and some slight tweaks so that it wasn't exactly the same movie. The only fault lies with the writers, they lacked any originality. The inability to create any original content has become a common theme with today's writers. I don't mind that this was a knockoff of the Dirty Rotten Scoundrels idea, but damn! They could at least put a different spin on it. Terrible. There are some laughs, but having seen Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, it's just saddening.
I initially saw this and wondered if it was a Supernatural knockoff or if it was something semi-original. Turns out, it was the latter and a poor knockoff at that. In the first episode, they even make a reference to Supernatural "Sam and Dean's" arsenal in their car trunk; so, at least they acknowledge it.
As for the show itself, I gave it 3 stars, not because it's a poor knockoff of Supernatural, because it's not that good. I understand as much as the next person that most of these shows are "B" type flicks. However, the acting is really kind of bad and the nobody seems like they want to really be doing the show. On top of that, it seems like they rushed to unfold/evolve everything in the pilot, which made it less interesting, like they didn't have a good product and were just spit- balling for something to grab you attention.
Because I'm a fan of shows like this, I will stick it out for at least the first season to see if they can settle things out; hopefully they can.
