lnlsmith-612-824567 I was so hoping to see another season of Luck. The actors are great. I love the intrigue. The Hoffman creator was developing into a decent guy. I want to know the story behind him going to prison. What caused the problems in the first place. I was actually learning more about race horses. I had no idea about the medications they take to run. The betting process was interesting also. I had been looking forward to seeing it for a second season as much as I love forward to Dexter on a yearly basis. I would hope that some channel would pick it up. Hey, maybe the horse racing network! Maybe the company that made the second season will at least sell it through Amazon, so I can continue to enjoy it.

hayspaterson I love this show.Now having said that yes there is room for improvement. However for a new series just getting their feet wet, it's improving every episode.Second, I love the music. Every choice is great. Some I've even been looking up to add to my collections. As for music during the races I seem to be turning it up as the episode goes on because I keep getting more into it. I have a nice set up Yamaha amp and Paradigm speakers and fine the audio sounds great in 5.1.The plot at the start has a few directions it could move, but I feel the general route their taking is OK. The developing story of revenge echoes through and wants to come to the surface.All in all, it's at least comparable to what's out there in TV land and I feel it's better. With every step they take the the directors and producers are building a foundation which I hope gets to see a conclusion.

inframan Far too many red herrings & endlessly meandering story threads, very thin ones at that which became too hard to follow & were so undeveloped that it would take someone with multiple personalities to keep track of everything going on. If they had just stuck to the strong suits, the plot points anchored by the great acting of Hoffman & Nolte & Kind & Dunn, Luck could have been a classic, a real masterpiece. But they kept throwing in fodder for the soap fans, like the whiny Irish sex kitten jockey or the pointless Joan Allen cameo (I was hoping she was taking Ace for a ride) or the really dumb "domestication" of Turo. Oof. Some of the writing was brilliant, very lyrical like a blend of Runyon & Shakespeare, especially among the gambler gang & seemingly all of Richard Kind's lines. But then a lot of it was also hard to decipher & overly ornate. Too bad. Luck had a whole lot of style & promise.

L C Just watched what must be the third episode and we are rapidly losing interest. The script is tolerable because the acting is strong, even though the characters could each get killed off one-by-one and it could be accepted without one drop of sympathy or surprise. The muddled tone is weird and offsetting. There does not seem to be even one personality in the cast who reacts with positive emotion, purpose or professionalism. But the worst part for us had to be the music that tries to create pathos in slow motion scenes that are too long, too drawn out and just very boring. After a full minute of grimacing close ups of faces, horse parts, jockey parts, and painful slow motion, it was a relief just to finish a race no matter which horse won or lost. The violins were especially out of place because they just didn't fit the "action" at all.
