Alright, let’s talk about this show, “shows like so help me todd”. I watched it, you know, when I had some free time from feedin’ the chickens and whatnot. It’s about this fancy lawyer lady, Margaret Wright, real sharp she is, but her son, Todd? A bit of a mess, ain’t got no direction, like a lost puppy in a cornfield.
So, this Margaret, she hires her own son, Todd, can you believe it? Guess she figured he needed somethin’ to do besides, I dunno, chasin’ squirrels or somethin’. It’s a legal show, but not too stuffy, you know? They got some funny stuff in there, like that time… well, never mind, you gotta watch it yourself. It’s a comedy-drama, they call it. Means it’s got some laughs and some serious stuff too, like life and death, you know?
- Margaret, she’s the brains, the one who knows all the law and stuff.
- Todd, he’s the one who does the legwork, snoopin’ around, talkin’ to people. He’s got a knack for it, even if he is a bit of a goofball sometimes.
They solve crimes together, mostly murders and such. One time, Margaret got real sick, couldn’t work on a big case, so Todd had to step up. That was somethin’ to see, like a young rooster tryin’ to crow for the first time. They even got this true crime podcaster lady to help them out once, Lea Luna her name was, to prove some fella didn’t do what they said he did, you know, get him out of jail.
It ain’t always smooth sailin’, though. They argue a lot, like a cat and a dog tied together. Margaret, she’s all serious and professional, and Todd, well, he’s… Todd. But they always figure it out in the end, like family does, I guess. They gotta work together, even though it ain’t easy. It’s like tryin’ to get a mule to pull a cart, sometimes they go along, sometimes they just stand there and stare at ya’.
Now, this show, it ain’t perfect, mind you. Sometimes it gets a little too silly, and sometimes it gets a little too serious. It’s like a patchwork quilt, you know? Bits and pieces of different things all sewn together. But that’s what makes it interestin’, I reckon. Keeps you guessin’ what’s gonna happen next. One minute they’re laughin’, the next minute they’re dealin’ with a murder. It’s like life, ain’t it?
They canceled the show, though. Can you believe it? Just when things were gettin’ good. Said not enough folks were watchin’ it. Shame, really. I liked it. It was somethin’ different, somethin’ to watch after a long day of hoein’ the garden or whatever. They even had a whole story planned out for the next season, but now we ain’t gonna see it. Left us hangin’ like clothes on a line in the wind. The last episode, they didn’t even know it was the last, so it just stops, makes ya wonder what happened next. Darn shame, if you ask me.
So, if you’re lookin’ for a show that’s got a bit of everything – laughs, drama, mystery – and you don’t mind a little bit of silliness, then you might like “shows like so help me todd”. Just don’t get too attached, ’cause they might just up and cancel it on ya. Like they did to this one. It’s a good show to watch when you’re sittin’ on the porch with a glass of iced tea, just relaxin’ and letting the day go by. But don’t expect it to be somethin’ fancy or highfalutin. It’s just a good, down-to-earth show, like a comfortable pair of old shoes.
Overall, I’d say it’s worth a watch, even if it did get canceled. It’s entertainin’, and the actors are good. Margaret and Todd, they feel like real people, even if they are a bit… eccentric. And that’s what matters, ain’t it? Findin’ somethin’ that keeps you entertained and makes you feel somethin’. So go on, give it a try. You might just like it.
