Summer TV makes a case for Anna Wood and Cam Gigandet as the sexy Yankee lawyer Jamie Sawyer at odds with the Charleston, South Carolina, newly appointed City Attorney Roy Rayder. If you like Southern sizzle and pop, Reckless is a well cast and tightly wound drama with good writing, plenty of conflicts, and each episode leaving viewers anxious for the next installment on CBS Sunday evenings at 10 PM (PDT).
With several conflicts in the police department and courtroom intersecting, these particular two characters have UST that just won't stop. Great onscreen chemistry.
If you enjoy that southern twang and the cultural discrepancy between the north and south, Reckless is an entertaining venture. The steamy scenes could easily be eliminated and seem to be included just because Hollywood must think without a sex scene quota, people won't tune in. When you present a series with as much good conflict and UST as contained in this drama, the slight graphics show up as unnecessary add-ons.
Other characters prove worthy of note and keep the reservoir of trouble active. Not your ordinary courtroom drama, although there are some highly charged battles within that environment. Each week reveals more and expands the knowledge of each personality. Reckless is a good summer replacement series and should earn a recurring role on the CBS roster.
Father, you're the source of real talent. Let those who use it well recognize from whom it comes. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
