Bereamic Awesome Movie
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
edemery-87813 This is one of the best new shows ever. My husband and I watch it every Sunday and the way the episodes end with you hanging we can't wait for the next one. So glad to see Don Johnson back on TV and these characters very believable and interesting. Twists and turns all appreciated, keeps the story moving and captivating. Right from the start I was ready to compare it to Dallas, but I think this one is even better, more edgy and dark. I think this could be the one new show of 2015 that actually makes TV worthwhile again. I like these types of shows that grab you and you just can't wait for the next episode. There hasn't been one of these in a long time - welcome back Sunday night TV.
kittywaymo I love Blood and Oil! If you love intelligent, in-depth characters whom you will adore after the Pilot, and some guilty pleasure Sunday night soap indulgence, you will get addicted to Blood and Oil!! I love a TV series that gives me something to look forward to! This storyline is interwoven tightly to reveal wonderfully complex leads and supporting roles, It stars Don Johnson who always plays rich characters bigger than life but likable. He is Hap Briggs, an oil tycoon that definitely plays dirty and lives on the edge. His beautiful wife, played by Amber Valetta, who, as Hap's wife, perfectly masters high breeding with lustful greed and treachery. Then there's gorgeous Rebecca Rittenhouse as Cody the character you might find yourself rooting for the most. She's idealistic, works as s pharmacy tech, and is the backbone of support to her husband Billy played by the handsome Chase Crawford from " Gossip Girl's." Billy is the new kid in town , literally and is dragged into the topsy turvy world of Hap and his deadly beautiful wife, on a tale that is perhaps cautionary: sometimes we do get what we want.Scott foster plays Hap's son Wick,A bright, good looking young man who was handed everything, but still can't seem to get it right. This show does not disappoint. I am so happy after many years of boring shows on TV to have something to really look forward to!
ccorral419 Don't know if today's evening TV viewing audience is ready for another "Dallas" or "Dynasty" type show, but here is comes with "Blood & Oil". Don Johnson (Miami Vice) returns to prime time as oil tycoon Hap Briggs, with a family (Amber Valletta, Scott Michael Foster and Miranda Rae Mayo) full of angst and ready for trouble. Johnson also executive producers with others, and luckily he managers to keep out of his own way while on screen. Playing the innocent card, and ripe for "oil creed picking," are the sexy Chase Crawford (Gossip Girl) and his innocence TV wife Rebecca Rittenhouse (Red Band Society). The writing is on the wall regarding the marriage of these families, so get ready for turmoil. As "Blood & Oil" is nighttime drama, the series writers are moving a mile a minute, tossing out and crossing story lines like there is no tomorrow. At this point, the series concept appears plausible. However, many of the sets are too perfect and sometime incorrect (i.e. the hotel Crawford initially stays in appears run down, yet inside the room is extremely large and the bathroom is spa like). For now I'm sticking around to see what happens next in North Dakota.
imprttuner I will lead this off by saying I'm not a fan of the evening soaps format. I wasn't a fan of Revenge, and am more of a fan of the action or detective style shows.My beef with this show isn't so much in the content, but with the depiction of my state. We have no mountains, real oil equipment does not look like cellphone towers, and the whole wild west vibe going on is way off base. Sure we've prospered as an area due to the increased revenue that the oil production has brought, but the nights of neon lights and debauchery are limited to the inside of the bars, and not the main drag. With prosperity comes the inherent troublemakers trying to make a buck, but Williston and the surrounding communities have been working very hard to change peoples perception of what it's like being in the middle of a boom area, and show's like this make all the steps forward look like a waste of time.The oil industry is not that exciting so I understand that you have to amp up the drama, but I wonder if the producers even bothered to scout the area prior to deciding to film in Utah for the tax breaks, instead of using the actual prairie for it's backdrop.
