Review of Pilot

The Lyon's Den: Pilot (2003)
Season 1, Episode 1
Disappointing
21 February 2004
I had been looking forward to this show quite a lot when I saw it previewed during the summer as a new fall offering. I watched the first few episodes, and was continually saddened to see such a boring show. Next week's episode always seemed like it was going to be exciting and dramatic, but every "next week" turned out to be as bland and blah as the last one. I was disappointed because I liked Rob Lowe on The West Wing (apparently he left over contract and money disputes), and I am a fan of legal thrillers, and this one seemed promising. It might have been a case of the show needing some more time to find its rhythm and build momentum and a fan base, but it was yanked from the network lineup fairly quickly. It was taken off during November sweeps, then brought back, then officially canceled. Overall, I think it was a show with a lot of potential and could have been a good one, but in the end, it just didn't hold my attention. And evidently didn't hold the attention of a lot of people.
