The Finder - lost but forgotten

So glad Netflix has this show on tap because The Finder is excellent in the sense that the viewer is just off base or unsettled enough to keep watching (or at least that was my experience). I found myself constantly trying to think of a way to fix the characters to improve the show.

The premise is great - that's why I started it of course. I envisioned a 'backwater Sherlock Holmes'.  My favorite is the gypsy girl, I think gypsy culture is enough secretive that I just loved learning about her and her betrothal.  I think this show could have found a following if only it was better managed.  

Why I love Meg Cabot's characters

Meg Cabot is like novel junk tv for me.  I absolutely love it and read/listen to almost all her books multiple times.  I don't care how old I am I will always enjoy listening to Mia Thermopolis and her struggles as she gets through Albert Einstein High School and becomes the POG she was born to be. 

I am currently listening to Queen of Babble and yes she's amazing.  I need to listen to the Heather Wells series again.  I'm dying to know if that no good cheating Luke that Lizzie Nichols loves is off gallivanting with college kids at New York College and Heather Wells mentions it :).  I think by far Mia and Michael are the best couple but right after is Heather Wells, she is extremely well rounded and thoughtful even with her flaws and struggles she always does the best she can. 

I loved Avalon High, the book NOT the movie, sorry Disney you screwed up the ending.  The point was that she WASN'T the hero of that story, and that's ok.  It's ok to be a supporting character some times!!!  But that moral is lost on Hollywood I'm sure.
