I want to love Elsbeth, because I love Elsbeth herself, but the supporting cast just doesn't bring it. They are good in other things, and I like them, but the writers made them too much the dry foil to Elsbeth's quirky character. They need more powerhouses like Christine Baranski or Juliana Marguelies to offset the silliness of Elsbeth's character. I also wish they didn't reveal the murderer at the very beginning of the show. It would be more fun to watch her work it out and guess with her, than to know all along. I love the New York setting though. I think this could be a great show, if they got the supporting characters right.
