Review of The Calling

The Calling (2022)
5/10
High expectations ruined by a arrogant, self righteous, know it all partner.
23 December 2022
Why do the series writers think it is necessary to write a smart aleck unlikeable female character. Janine Harris is so abrasive and unlikeable she takes away from the story line. This is not a strong woman she is a cliche. She is supposed to be learning from her partnership with Avi but she belittles him, his religion, and his skills. She has little respect for her colleagues and her barbs are cheap shots. In old stage terms she is a "ham" trying to steal every scene with her not so witty lines. If the writers can tone down her nastiness and add some intelligence to her character the show may service another season.
