Definitely kept me interested, can't wait for next week.

Not addicted yet, possibility is there, Need to see more of the chemistry. Charaters flawed perfectly.

The entusiasm and fine acting of Ron and the others are worth watching even if the storyine is bad, which it isn't

I know giving it a 10 may seem excessive, but Ron Livingston is just awesome. Whatever flaws the script may have are resolved by his fine acting skills. It's also cool to see two actors from the "Band of Brothers" series reunite on television.

I tape it so I can watch it on the weekends for tons of popcorn & have a good time. Cheaper than the movies & the acting & sets aren't half bad. Hey look, they copied these from Spanish. But I'll still watch because there is suspense, anger, rage, emotion, FUN, FUN, FUN!

What did I just see?

I liked it. I thoight the chemistry between the main characters was hot!

this show is really good, it might take a couple of episodes to get it off but if this show gets cancelled i'll be mad

I love this show. The acting is really very good and I enjoy the relationship between the 2 stars. I've missed it being on and hope the powers that be aren't going to mess with a good thing.

have you ever noticed, even with movies, "professional" critics (and i use the word professional loosely) tend to not like a lot of things that the people (who are what really matters) seems to love them? I don't even listen to critics anymore. I pay attention to what people like myself have to say. And I say this show is excellent and would be extremely sad to see it go.

I am very disappointed that the show was canceled. It was 1 of only 2 shows I looked forward to all week and Ive already started watching past episodes on myspace.

I enjoy the romance of Matt and Emily and I find the hostage negotiations interesting.

This was one of the only shows that I actually looked forward to... it was easy to get into the show with the actors involved.

Please keep this show. We enjoy the moonlighting banter between them and the new plot each week.

Not sure what's wrong with the trades, it's pretty great.

I thought it was great. Looking forward to next weeks

great chemistry, tantalising crisis situations, good acting, and enough that's intriguing to keep me coming back every week.

I really wanted to pass on this show, but guess what? The goofy FBI agents have chemistry! That's been missing in tv land for too long, so I'm willing to ignore the retread plot lines and neat wrap ups for a few sparks.

The first few episodes have been ok but I can't see this being maintained over the long haul.

it was plausible, i liked it

I loved it. I am programing my Tivo so I dont miss it next week. I cant wait to see it agian.

The critics must be watching a different show, because "Standoff" it great! It was especially good for a pilot.

A standoff every week? That'll wear thin pretty fast. With such a limited premise, the show will be a bore within weeks. I doubt this makes it to the winter.

better then most of the sutff they put on tv these days

I watched every episode of this show and it,s one of my favorite. I love the romance between matt and emily!

It is a very good T.V. Show.

I think this is a great show. Why would anyone like a cartoon better? I guess I don't get how some people think?

I watched the first episode and looked forward to more. But then the next few ones came and I've stopped looking forward to any more. Badly written, badly directed and just plain bad. Fox seems to love these kinds of shows (cheap?).

I love it. Very smart writing that has several layers and doesn't assume complete stupidity on the part of the audience. Acting is top-notch, and the chemistry between Livingston and DeWitt really adds. Personally, I think there are enough "straight action" 24/NCIS/Vanished/Prison Break knock-offs, and like the more human side to this, along with the light-heartedness that is allowed to creep in. It's my current favorite. Keep it up. Episode 5 "Life Support" was very moving.… Expand

So you may have to suspend disbelief - after all this is TV. But, there is plenty in this show that makes it entertaining in it's own unique way. If the writing can catch up with the quality of the cast, this show could be a real winner.

i think that the series' unique angle lends itself to interesting psychological drama as it explores the hows and whys of hostage negotiation - even as it dishes out a heavy helping of FOX's de rigueur hoppin' hormones. And i think that 'Standoff' doesn't recreate the genre, but it certainly refreshes it. So it's alright though, although it's aa little peachy.… Expand

Keep me on the edge of my seat and wanting to know what will happen between these two love birds. KEEP IT GOING!!!

Definitely worth the time watching. It is a new step for television into the hostage negotiation drama. Ron Livingston is entertaining in his step into drama. Forget the critics watch it for an edge of your seat drama thrill ride.
