Fans are writing, posting, tweeting, and using a Facebook page specifically designed for renewing Reckless. Fans' outcries are often the only way series TV can be salvaged.

  •                             Forty altogether. I love you, Michael.   Thank you, Lord, for bringing us through the deep waters, for saving our souls, for watching over us, for loving us more than we can know, and for being who you are. Always. Thank you is never enough. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

  •                     For whatever reason, by design, genre, or insufficient access to money or imagination, few television series dramas can muster "having it all". From costumes, set designs, hues and colors, stunning photography, even future episode previews to perfect casting, great acting and creative direction with character understanding/development, superb dialogue and original/provocative writing and editing, and a carefully scripted…

She knows what to do and how and…

  •     The infamous former cop Lee Anne Marcus of the CBS drama Reckless is convincingly played by Australian actress Georgina Haig. In the top picture, we see the victim Lee Anne Marcus on the stand in another embarrassing exposure with Detective Terry McCandless. The second picture displays more of who Lee Anne truly is after spending the night…

  •                                        Shawn Hatosy plays the obnoxious, corrupt, cynical, notorious, and lovestruck Detective Terry McCandless in the CBS summer replacement drama Reckless. In the first picture above you see Terry with his formerly disgraced cop father Pat McCandless, the reason for much of Terry's self-centered thinking and corruption. Like father, like son. To a degree. Pat McCandless lives with…

  •     Cam Gigandet plays Roy Rayder, the co-star City Attorney of Charleston to Anna Wood's Jamie Sawyer, Yankee defense attorney in the CBS summer drama Reckless. Roy Rayder is pictured above in his two modes: the easygoing southern gentleman and the suave, understated but in-command lawyer.
