    As bad as the terribly over rated movie.

    An absolutely horrible show. Boring, vague, lifeless and dumb. Dennis Hopper shows his unique brand of crappy acting and everyone follows suit.

    We are up to the 5th episode, but I still don't know if I like the series yet (note: I am still watching). Many of the scenes seem contrived with unrealistic scenarios. The characters are interesting, but so marred with corrupt character flaws that they are barely likable. Hopper's character is becoming progressively more annoying. Its time for the action to start or zzzzzz.

    Stupid movie, stupid show. By presenting the interaction of racial stereotypes as "real" racial issues in America, it only reinforces them by allowing you to feel OK about your prejudices.

    A total abomination. The Crash series is even worse than the movie, if that's even possible. The dialogue and scenes are not even remotely plausible.

    I loved it! It was gritty and as I see it lived up to the movie in which it is based. I can't see why people hate it soo .....I really can't.

    I really like this show, I think it's great. I've only got up to episode 102 b/c i didn't watch it while it was in season, my mistake but I'm catching with the on demand episodes and I have to admit I'm sorry I missed it during regular season.

    Another piece of garbage that makes a statement about race and class in Los Angeles, I so wish TV producers would get off the social soapbox and attempted brainwashing of the viewing public!

    Boring, terrible plot, too long. No reason to watch next episode.

    Great start, up until episode 6 and 7.the story starts to add filler episodes that introduce the other characters. in my opinion they were not as interesting as the first ones.but if you have 13 episodes and have to tie in other characters that would be one way to do it. i wish it could've been more interesting.by the way,the show is'nt that bad as the others think of it. there Great start, up until episode 6 and 7.the story starts to add filler episodes that introduce the other characters. in my opinion they were not as interesting as the first ones.but if you have 13 episodes and have to tie in other characters that would be one way to do it. i wish it could've been more interesting.by the way,the show is'nt that bad as the others think of it. there are other terrible shows. will and grace?… Expand

    I really loved the first season, was absolutely great, but maybe thats just me! Season two though... very disappointing. Got rid of many, if not most, of the original characters. Past stories or plots of characters are gone and new characters are introduced much too fast without description or reason. If you thought season one was bad, season two is DEFINITELY not for you.

    The film's episodic, interwoven tales of race relations in L.A. become a swampy mess of ludicrous dialogue, disconnected characters, and offensively stupid plotting.

    I’ll come back to Crash the TV show, but for now, the acting doesn’t exactly induce gaper’s block.

    Sure, it's got some ethically challenged cops, some overt racism, some faux hot sex and what looks to be a lot of money spent on filming on the streets of Los Angeles, but the writing is surprisingly nondescript, the acting rudimentary and the first hour ends with nothing much in the way of movement.
