Actors are good;writing is bad. i.e. Why did Queen L have to take a plane trip with the terrorist? She could have shot him in the first scene and do what she did in the end . . . hold his finger to the device after he was dead. Queen L, an actress I really like, deserves better writing.

I really like this show but I am very hard of hearing. Friends who are not hearing impaired also like the show but have the same complaint as I do. The dialogue is blocked out by the loud background music your producers add thinking it enhances the show. It doesn't. It causes you to lose viewers. "Transplant" isn't the only production guilty of this . . . just the worst of the offender. Surgical masks don't help hospital productions. Subtitles don't keep up with the audio and focussing on the crawl means missing the video action. Please become a trend-setter in the industry by muting the background noise on street shoots and getting rid of the loud action music. I know you all think it makes a production more real and artsy-fartsy but it doesn't. While you're at it, improve the lighting in apartment and house scenes. Lamps only work in real life!!!!!!

My feedback rating may be based on my diminished hearing. There is too much background noise and music for me to hear the dialogue of many productions these days. If I put it on "closed captioning" I am too busy reading the crawl speed by and miss the screen actiion so that's not an option. Productions today for some odd reason seem to think background music and street sounds, etc. makes it more realistic but the audience is more interested on the interaction of the characters. Actors in the era of Bletchley enunciated but this generation of actors mumble, abreviate and street talk. I think production people are too committed to their own artistic ego to make fiction seem real. Maybe you should take an opinion poll to see if audiences agree. Please start a movement to enhance the dialogue of the actors and mute the nightclub audience in the background.
