All that the show had to do was follow the example set by the book, OR the movie. It did neither. The characters are bad....the writing is bad.... the plots are bad. The actors are even bad...in THIS. Not everyone can be Denzel Washington...but Russell Hornsby was a bad choice for Rhyme. Not only his body is paralyzed, but his acting abilities too. He's just a bad fit for this. Laurence Fishburne, or even Morgan Freeman would have been much more intense. Forest Whitaker would have been perfect. The rest of the cast doesn't fit either. Michael Imperioli looks like he forgot HOW to act. Either that, or the writing is that bad. This is a one season show. Too bad. It could have been great.
