i heard advertisements for this blind justice show over and over again on stern. and unlike stubhub, i was NOT hooked. every cliche was thrown out there: "in the blink of an eye, his life changed", his partner doesn't trust him, he develops a super sense of smell b/c he's been blind for a few months, etc etc.
are you the blind detective? "no, i'm a homicide detective who happens to be blind".
how long do they expect to be able to roll out episodes for this? how many cases are going to turn on his super ability to smell? This isn't the little guy trying to make good. He's not fighting unfair stereotypes. he's BLIND. blind people can not be homicide detectives. they can't be cops. end of story.
this is worse than the thundercat who was blind, but didn't act it b/c he used his hearing (and taste?) to walk about like he wasn't blind.
I'm going to pitch a show where i play center field for the Yankees. It's about as realistic as this garbage.
