    I like this fresh series, and everything is happening fast. You don't get bored, always something happens. Its a Scandal type of series. lets hope it gets the second season

    I found the show different and exciting. Most stories are coming from the point of view of a police, detectives...but this is different we have lawyer and the media working together to free and convict criminals. Lets say assisting the law in force to do their jobs correctly. Love every minute of it. The chemistry between the 2 stars is awesome.

    I personally find this show very entertaining, exciting. Yes, it feels similar to Scandal or The Catch, but I like that genre of show, so I like this one as well. Yes, nothing groundbreaking and it may seem a bit sloppy at times, but leading actors are really good and have great chemistry, so that cancels out the rest. The plot is okay and I'm looking forward to seeing what's next!

    I like this show. I hate that it is based on that slime ball, Larry King and his producer but there is so much truth here about the media it is worth watching. I love the acting, some of the better TV actors are on here (although they are just their programmed selves) so no surprises either. I hope this doesn't get canceled. I'm shocked it doesn't have better reviews. It is much betterI like this show.

    I really enjoyed it. Faster paced than Scandal, but fun. Instead of behind the scenes of Washington politics, Notorious goes behind the scenes of a news program. I guess i shouldn't be surprised that the critics didn't like it. They want super dark, edgy and artsy or in my view, unbearably silly.

    Typical of critics, if it is not artsy it is bad. This show was entertaining and I look forward to where it is going. Is it groundbreaking, no. But I watch TV to be entertained, not to find the next Shakespeare..

    Many new shows are just bad. This one is notoriously bad. The first high profile failure from the new programming management at ABC. How To Get Away With Mucking Up Thursdays. The fall back response from ABC will be that is was only a placeholder until Scandal returns. Well, pick a show that is mediocre at the very least and watchable, not this turkey. What were they thinking!

    I watched the pilot and I have no idea what the critics are talking about. People seem to forget that the purpose of television is to be entertained. The show doesn't have to be deep or historical to be good. This show had all of the elements necessary to keep me watching.

The plot was able to pull me in (there were no boring moments), the actors were good and the characters had great chemistry. I think that the show will have a procedural format, which also works very well. I'm usually not a fan of Piper Perabo, but I like her in this particular show and Daniel Sunjata is very charismatic. It has a soapy Scandal-vibe, so if that's not your type of show, then it won't be for you. But within it's genre, it does a good job.… Expand

    It wasn't always believable and it was predictable at times, but it was still pretty entertaining and the acting was good. It's not a groundbreaking show, but it's still watchable.

    Inicialmente esperava mais, porém com o passar dos episódios ela vem evoluindo bem, os personagens protagonistas e secundários, vem segurando bem.....

    The show could work if it took advantage of Perabo and Sunjata’s great dynamic, but right now there aren’t nearly enough lighthearted, banter-filled moments, and the actors appear to be trapped by a script that takes itself way too seriously.

    This is a show without any nutritive value, innate appeal or sense of purpose. It slogs through its muck until the buzzer sounds.

    Featuring unconvincing dialogue. ... Notorious is otherwise instantly forgettable as soon as each scene is completed.
