Tonight, they're having an episode where all of New Orleans is completely paralyzed and freaking out about a power blackout

I like this show, it's fun to watch and see the city in a tv show. That and to see how the accents are so bad.

I have to sit through commercials for that show when watching Limitless.

For the most part they don't do accents bad except for Lucas Black who just sounds like that.

I still can't understand how Lucas Black jeeps getting jobs. Guy is terrible at everything he's been in.

He was supposed to be a cajun, but he couldn't do the accent, so they just said "f&%k it, your character's from Alabama!"

That's a better decision than JCVD's cajun in Hard Target.

Man I love that show for no other reason than its setting.. All these one off crime shows are ridiculous regarding storylines so I've got no problem with the silliness that usually occurs.

I can't stand any science-based scripted shows like CIS or NCIS.

They are so so bad.

Only watched one. The main guy was constantly cooking gumbo, beignets, etc. A regular Paul Prudhomme.

That was the funniest thing to me. I only saw a few episodes but it was all pirogues and gumbo and voodoo and mardi gras and blah blah blah... it might not seem so cliche and heavy handed if you're not from here. But I just couldn't.

The first few episodes were really heavy handed with Nola cliches. There was one really bizarre "beignets and lemonade" reference. It's blended more into the scenery now.

Costner in Robin Hood was like that. He's terrible.
