Review of All Rise

All Rise (2019–2023)
2/10
Little substance, bad episode formula
1 October 2019
After the first episode I had hope it could turn out to be a descent court dramedy, unfortunately I don't feel so optimistic after the second one. The show seems to follow a simple formula which is taking over the story and characters, and part of it is: show a couple of cases, make it very clear what is right and what is wrong for each, make the main characters fight for the right thing and the replaceable characters fight for the wrong thing. The show has a very simplistic worldview and I have trouble imagining how that wouldn't get in the way of character and story development. Don't think I would be watching next week.
